Amazon MGM cancelled its Spider-Noir series, starring Nicolas Cage, earlier this month despite good reviews. Now the company is close to ordering a new Spider-Man show based on the 'Clone Saga' storyline from the 1990s.
Deadline reported the news on Tuesday. The show will focus on Ben Reilly and Kaine Parker, two clones of Spider-Man. Exact plot details are still unknown.

🎯 Why It Matters
