Nic Cage is no stranger to the Spider-Man universe, especially now that Spider-Noir is taking the world by storm. Alongside Li Jun Li, Lamorne Morris, and Brendon Gleeson, Cage is bringing Ben Reilly to life, telling the story of a down-and-out private detective in 1930s New York who, as the city’s one and only superhero, is forced to grapple with his past after tragedy shakes him to his core. But this isn’t the first time that the actor has danced with the idea of starring in a Spider-Man story.

Ridley Scott is one of the greats for a reason. His name is synonymous with movies that are insane in their scale, easily becoming pop culture giants. He’s the mind behind classics like Alien, Gladiator, Blade Runner, and so many more. But it’s his most recent step into the sci-fi genre that has some people up in arms, especially over a few changes he saw fit to make between the novel his newest movie is based on and the final film.
