Steve Lightfoot, known for his work on Apple’s Shantarum and Netflix’s The Punisher, has signed on as co-showrunner on Amazon‘s live-action Spider-Man Noir series based on the Marvel comic, Deadline has confirmed.
As we reported in February, the as-yet untitled series is written and executive produced by Oren Uziel (The Lost City). It follows an older, grizzled superhero in 1930s New York City.
