Spider-Noir is about to swing onto screens, but the live-action Spider-Man show has a more complicated release schedule than you might think, which is why we've channeled our inner Ben Reilly to crack the case of where and when you can watch the new series.
Starring Nic Cage as the titular web-slinger, Spider-Noir puts a prohibition-era spin on superhero storytelling. Centered on a gumshoe detective who also happens to be his universe's Spider-Man, Spider-Noir sees the fedora-sporting superhero come trade blows with Brendan Gleeson's mob boss Silvermane, and his superpowered henchmen.
We've got everything you need to know about the Spider-Noir release date and time right here, including where to watch and how many episodes to expect. And before you watch, be sure to check out our spoiler-free Spider-Noir review.
Spider-Noir release date and streaming time
If you want to see Spider-Noir at the earliest opportunity, you need to be in the US, where the entire first season will air back-to-back on MGM+'s linear channel on May 25 at 11:30am PDT / 2:30pm EDT. That's right: all 8 episodes will air across just over 6 hours, finishing at around 5:40pm PDT / 8:40pm EDT. It won't be available on demand right away, so a marathon binge, as it airs live, is your only option if you want to watch on Memorial Day.
What you're probably more interested in is when Spider-Noir hits Prime Video. The entire first season of Spider-Noir drops as a binge release on Prime Video on May 27 at 12am PDT / 3am EDT. That's 8am GMT in the UK. At that point, every episode will be available to watch on demand through Prime Video, assuming you're subscribed.
Where to watch Spider-Noir
Thanks to the rather confusing collaboration between Amazon-owned platforms MGM+ and Prime Video, there are actually two places to watch Spider-Noir.
On May 25, you'll be able to watch the entire first season of Spider-Noir on MGM+'s linear channel, but only live as it airs. Crucially, it will not be available to stream on demand via MGM+.
From May 27, Spider-Noir will be available on Prime Video as an on-demand binge release. Of course, you'll need a subscription to MGM+ or Prime Video to watch on either platform.
Spider-Noir episode count
There are 8 episodes in the first season of Spider-Noir, each clocking in around the 42-minute mark, just like the good old days of network TV. None of these bloated 60+ minute episodes here!
That means, if you want to binge the entire first season in one sitting, it'll take you just over five-and-a-half hours. Keep the Spider-snacks handy…
