Below is the show's first teaser trailer, which presents the Marvel Comics Spider-Verse character in live action for the first time. Marking the Oscar winner's first leading TV series role, Cage plays Ben Reilly, an aging and down-on-his-luck private investigator in 1930s New York, who is forced to grapple with his past life as the city's one and only superhero. The trailer shows Cage as a world-weary gumshoe and a black-clad web-slinger and features the tagline: "With No Power Comes No Responsibility."
