Prime Video’s Newest Superhero Series Is Filling ‘The Boys’ Gap on the Streaming Charts



[

Before the Avengers return in Doomsday this December, Tom Holland is ready to swing back to global screens with Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Scheduled for release on July 31, with just over two months to wait until Peter Parker tackles a world that has forgotten him, Brand New Day is sure to be a major hit at the box office, especially thanks to its stacked cast. Those starring alongside Holland include Zendaya and Jacob Batalon’s MJ and Ned, Mark Ruffalo as Bruce Banner/The Hulk, Jon Bernthal as Frank Castle/The Punisher, Michael Mando as Scorpion, Marvin Jones III as Tombstone, and Sadie Sink in an as-yet-unknown role that many believe to be Jean Grey.

If you can’t wait for your next dose of mainline MCU Spider-Man, Prime Video has just dropped a new Spidey series that is proving to be the perfect way to fill the time. A live-action series serving as a spin-off to the animated Spider-Verse films (Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse and Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse), Spider-Noir stars the Oscar-winning Nicolas Cage as he reprises his role of Ben Reilly. Developed by Oren Uziel for MGM+ and Prime Video, the series also boasts the executive producing duo of Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, who have already had a wonderful year courtesy of their smash hit sci-fi masterpiece Project Hail Mary. The series also features Lamorne Morris, Li Jun Li, Karen Rodriguez, Abraham Popoola, Jack Huston, and Brendan Gleeson in its stacked cast.

All eight episodes of Spider-Noir, from “Step Into My Office” to “The Man in the Mask,” dropped on Prime Video this week, and the series is, unsurprisingly, already a major hit. At the time of writing, Spider-Noir has debuted at #2 in the Prime Video top ten in the U.S., missing out on the top spot thanks to the global phenomenon Off Campus. Spider-Noir has hit the top spot in several countries around the world, including Mexico, Poland, and Thailand.

Your Hero Has Been Identified
Your MCU Hero Is…

Based on your answers, the Marvel hero who matches your spirit, values, and instincts has been revealed.


Queens, New York

🕷️ Spider-Man

You carry the weight of the world on shoulders that are younger than they should have to be — funny, loyal, and endlessly self-sacrificing.

  • You do the right thing not because it’s easy, but because no one else will.
  • You understand that responsibility isn’t a burden you choose — it’s one that finds you.
  • Whether it’s a neighbourhood mugging or a multiverse crisis, you show up.
  • Peter Parker’s lesson — that great power demands great responsibility — isn’t a slogan to you. It’s the code you live by, even when it costs you everything.


Hell’s Kitchen, New York

😈 Daredevil

You fight in the shadows between law and chaos, guided by a fierce moral compass that refuses to let the guilty walk free.

  • You use every tool available — your mind, your body, your faith — to protect those the system overlooks.
  • You’ve looked into the darkness and chosen not to become it, though the line has never been easy.
  • Matt Murdock’s duality — champion in the courtroom, devil in the alley — mirrors your own.
  • Relentless, conflicted, and unwilling to stop. That is exactly you.


Stark Industries, Malibu

🤖 Iron Man

Brilliant, driven, and occasionally insufferable — but always the person who solves the unsolvable problem.

  • You lead with your mind and back it up with resources, innovation, and a stubbornness that borders on heroic.
  • You started out looking out for yourself, but somewhere along the way the world became your responsibility.
  • Tony Stark’s arc — from ego to sacrifice — is your arc too.
  • You build, you plan, and when the moment comes, you’re willing to give everything. Because in the end, you’re Iron Man.


New York City

💀 The Punisher

You’ve been through fire that would break most people — and it did change you, completely. What’s left is unyielding, relentless, and operating by a code forged in grief.

  • You don’t ask for forgiveness, and you don’t expect gratitude.
  • You see a corrupt, broken world and you’ve decided to do something about it, consequences be damned.
  • Frank Castle’s war is born from love twisted by loss — and so is yours.
  • Uncompromising and unflinching — the world may not agree with your methods, but your conviction is absolute.


Asgard · Protector of the Nine Realms

⚡ Thor

Powerful, proud, and on a lifelong journey to become worthy of the legend you carry.

  • You lead with strength but have learned — sometimes painfully — that true greatness comes from humility and growth.
  • You’re larger than life, yet more vulnerable than you let on.
  • Thor’s story is one of transformation: from arrogant prince to worthy king, from isolated warrior to beloved protector.
  • You bring the storm when it’s needed — and the warmth when it matters just as much.


Brooklyn, New York · The Avengers

🛡️ Captain America

You believe in something bigger than yourself — and you fight for it even when the world has moved on and nobody else will.

  • You don’t bully the small guy, and you never stop when it gets hard.
  • Steve Rogers didn’t become a hero when he got the serum — he was always one. So were you.
  • Your strength isn’t in your fists; it’s in your refusal to compromise what’s right, no matter the cost.
  • In a world full of people taking the easy road, you’re the one who picks up the shield and stands up — every single time.

What Are Critics Saying About ‘Spider-Noir’?

Given its origins in the acclaimed Spider-Verse movies, Spider-Noir has a lot to live up to. Thankfully, critics seem to universally agree that this spin-off is a success, scoring it an impressive 91% on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes. In a review by Collider’s Aidan Kelly, in which he calls the series “a heck of a lot of fun,” he awarded the show a strong 7/10 rating, praising Cage’s performance and saying his “effortless charisma and undeniable likability alone are enough to hold interest.”
