It seems that the legend that is Nicolas Cage can do no wrong (mostly), especially when it comes to this Spider-Man casting.
One of the best Spider-Man movies of all time is 2018’s Into the Spider-Verse, featuring Miles Morales as the fellow friendly neighbourhood hero. I don't want to give too much away but it was packed full of other Spider-Men and Women from different universes, and one was played by Nicolas Cage.
Check out the Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse trailer below!
“Bitten by a radioactive spider in the subway, Brooklyn teenager Miles Morales suddenly develops mysterious powers that transform him into the one and only Spider-Man,” reads the synopsis of Into the Spider-Verse.
“When he meets Peter Parker, he soon realises that there are many others who share his special, high-flying talents. Miles must now use his newfound skills to battle the evil Kingpin, a hulking madman who can open portals to other universes and pull different versions of Spider-Man into our world.”

“I really hope they use Sin City as an inspiration and lean into the visuals and noir vibe. It could make for a really unique Spider-Man story if done properly,” suggested MuptonBossman.
“Older, grizzled, cynical? Nicolas Cage is perfect for this,” said snicmtl with CiriOh “adding “Best casting decision ever.”
“This is when a non-Disney company having the Spider-Man rights is at its best. No stupid villain spinoff,” replied Swackhammer.
“This is a wild concept. It’s either going to be amazing or terrible, Cage goes all in so there’s no middle ground,” pleasegivemepatience bringing balance to the conversation.
