A Marvel First: WhySpider-Noiris launching with a dual-format viewing option

In a groundbreaking move,Prime Videois offering viewers the choice between two distinct visual experiences: Authentic Black & White and True-Hue Full Color. While the black and white version captures the gritty, 1930s cinematic aesthetic of classic film noir, the "True-Hue" option provides a vibrant look that brings the comic book panels to life in a groundbreaking way. Take a look at these two images to see the difference:

“The truth is, they both work and they're beautiful for different reasons,” Cage toldEsquire. “The color is super saturated and gorgeous. I think teenage viewers will appreciate the color, but I also want them to have the option. If they want to experience the concept in black and white, maybe that would instill some interest in them to look at earliermoviesand enjoy that as an art form as well.”
