Sony continues to try and exploit its universe of Spider-Man characters that it has the rights to use from Marvel. Silk, AKA Cindy Moon, was touted as a possibility for a movie back in 2018, but it now appears that the studio is looking to make her the first live-action series.
Lauren Moon, a veteran of shows such as Good Trouble and Netflix's Atypical, is in talks to write the series, which would follow the young hero. A Korean-American classmate of Peter Parker’s, she was first introduced in the comic books in The Amazing Spider-Man #1 in 2014. Like Parker, she is bitten by a radioactive spider, which gives her the ability to move at incredible speed, shoot webs out of her fingertips, and possess an advanced Spider-Sense (known as Silk Sense). Tiffany Espensen played the character in Spider-Man: Homecoming, though not the superhero version.
Phil Lord and Chris Miller are producing as part of their overall deal with the studio, alongside fellow Spider-steward Amy Pascal. According to Variety, Amazon has been in touch about a deal that would see its streaming service host any produced shows once they have been shown on a more traditional network. Though we can imagine the company trying to nab the rights outright.
