Bosco685 Posted February 17 Author Share Posted February 17 ‘Silk: Spider Society' Writers Room Scrapped by Amazon Quote The hotly anticipated Silk: Spider Society has let go of its entire writers room, minus its showrunner and one of the co-executive producers, as the show gets a developmental overhaul, a source close to the show tells The Ankler. Deadline had previously reported that the Silk writers room was set to reconvene in mid to late January. The series was the first of several live-action Marvel-Sony co-productions to get the green light from Amazon. Also in the works is Spider-Man Noir, where I’m told Nicolas Cage is in serious talks to take on the lead role on the series, which will be set in 1930s New York City. Sony declined to comment. A source close to the studio says that Angela Kang, who has a multi-year overall deal with Amazon, will continue to act as showrunner for the series that centers on Korean-American heroine Cindy Moon, who, according to reports of the logline, is bitten by the same spider that bit Peter Parker and goes searching for her missing family. The series is also produced by Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse duo Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, with Kai Wu and Jim Barnes co-exec producing. One source close to the series claims that Silk was being refocused with a more male-skewing audience in mind. Amazon had no comment. The studio and its streaming arm Prime Video have found success with a number of male-skewing series, including Reacher, Jack Ryan and The Terminal, though more female-skewing YA series such as The Summer I Turned Pretty have also performed well. Sony currently has another Spidey-verse title in circulation, with Dakota Johnson starrer Madame Web in theaters this week — the film opened to poor reviews and is largely expected to underperform.
