SILK Spider-Man Spinoff Reportedly Heading To Amazon; SABRINA's Adeline Rudolph Possibly Eyed To Star

We found out last year that Sony Pictures was in the process of developing a live-action Silk TV series, and we now have some very interesting updates on the planned Spider-Man spinoff...

Late last year, we got confirmation that Sony Pictures was moving forward on the Silk series we first heard about back in 2018, and now The Illuminerdi has now shared some very interesting updates.

The show is reportedly heading to Amazon Prime, with The Walking Dead writer Sang Kyu Kim on board as showrunner and executive producer along with Chris Miller and Phil Lord. Chilling Adventures of Sabrina actress Adeline Rudolph is said to have taken a meeting about a role (presumably the lead), but we don't know if she's officially in talks.

According to the character breakdown, Cindy Moon, aka Silk, is "a kid from Queens who is on her own for the first time. Although she’s a total beginner in law enforcement and fighting crime, she is said to love the feeling of beating up criminals to let her frustrations out, and has an affinity for ‘80s and ‘90s pop culture."

In the comics, Moon was a classmate of Peter Parker’s, first introduced in the pages of The Amazing Spider-Man #1 back in 2014. After being bitten by a radioactive spider, she gained similar arachnid-based abilities and took the superhero mantle of Silk. Tiffany Espensen actually appeared as the character in Spider-Man: Homecoming.

Sony is said to be developing a "suite" of shows that would focus on other Spidey-related Marvel characters, but we're still not sure who they'll be. We have heard that the studio has live-action plans for the likes of Spider-Gwen, Madame Web, Spider-Woman, and many others.

The source has a great track record for scoops, but we'll still have to wait and see if any of this is confirmed.

I hope they keep the "retro" aspect of her personality due to being in seclusion. If Cindy is just a modern teenager who loves 80s and 90s pop culture, I can see that getting pretty annoying pretty quick.

I’m good on the Sonyverse tbh, sort of curious to see how Morbius ties in with having The Vulture but beyond that I’m already out

@Reeds2Much - "less Dan Slott" can apply to most things

@Reeds2Much - You don’t want a Spider-Man cameo where they get extremely horny to the point they literally can’t be in the same room without banging? ‘Cause that’s quality writing right there.

@tmp3 - Slott is like the live action version of the Animaniacs skit "Good Idea; Bad Idea."

Good Idea: A female Spider.

Bad Idea: Written like self-insert fanfiction by a preteen girl.

@8thDoctor - so the actress gets the chance to make out with Tom Holland then? They'd probably fight for that opportunity lmao

@Toonstrack - For giving Holland an intense sloppy kiss? Sure! For the implied nude scene? I doubt it.

Surprised it’s not going to Hulu, I’d expect Disney to want to keep the Marvel logo in house.

I like Silk, she may be Spider-Person #9001, but she’s a fun character. I hope the series is good.

@8thDoctor - Its a Sony Pictures series, not Marvel. So that is why

@Cbmfilmjunkie @eagc1995 - I mean that Disney would bid to hell for it to keep all things Marvel in house & throwing it on Hulu is a good way to keep it separate from the MCU.
