SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY Rumored to Bring in Shang-Chi, Silver Samurai, Viper... and the Alien Suit — GeekTyrant
According to Perez, these two villains, last seen teamed up in The Wolverine (2013), could be the main antagonists. 'What I heard involves a connection [between Peter Parker and Bruce] dating back to the earliest days of the MCU and exploring some uncharted territory for both characters' personal histories,' he adds, implying a deeper story that brings The Hulk into play too.
Now, before anyone gets too hyped, let's pump the brakes. Perez previously claimed that Spider-Man: Brand New Day would feature Venom and Knull following the release of Venom: The Last Dance , so we're definitely in 'take it with a grain of salt' territory.
That said, the idea of Spider-Man clashing swords with Silver Samurai and dodging toxins from Viper in a global martial-arts-flavored showdown? Yeah, it's wild enough to be interesting.
It's also worth noting that Perez believes that Brand New Day , Daredevil: Born Again , and The Punisher Special Presentation are the only MCU projects leading directly into the long-rumored Mayor Fisk storyline. If true, this could be the first major link between Peter Parker and the darker street-level world of the MCU.
As for that alien costume, according to the report, Spidey's black suit will indeed appear in the movie, which instantly cranks up the speculation machine about Symbiotes, Multiverse crossovers, and all kinds of narrative mayhem.
Viper aka Madame Hydra is a deadly martial artist, toxin expert, and terrorist with ties to Hydra and a long history of battling heroes like Wolverine and Captain America.
Silver Samurai, meanwhile, is a mutant with a tachyon-charged blade capable of slicing through nearly anything. He's most often a Wolverine nemesis, but has been known to blur the lines between villain and anti-hero.
Directed by Shang-Chi filmmaker Destin Daniel Cretton, with a script from MCU vets Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers, Holland stars alongside Zendaya, Sadie Sink, and Liza Colón-Zayas. Spider-Man: Brand New Day is set to hit theaters on July 31, 2026.

Jaquory Arman Watson and Damari Zair Charles, both 18, were arrested on Monday, Aug. 11, on first-degree burglary charges and a sentencing enhancement for allegedly committing the act in concert with another person. They allegedly targeted another residence in Orange County, Calif., on Thursday, Aug. 7. They are being held without bail, according to Orange County court records obtained by PEOPLE. If found guilty, Watson and Charles could face up to six years in prison. The pair was allegedly part of a group of people who had been breaking into several homes across Southern California. The arrest comes just over a month after Pitt's home in the Los Angeles neighborhood, Los Feliz, was broken into on Wednesday, June 25. The alleged burglary occurred at approximately 10:30 p.m. local time, after the suspects "broke into the residence via the front window,' the Los Angeles Police Department previously told PEOPLE. They allegedly 'ransacked the location, then fled the location with miscellaneous property," police said. Pitt, 61, was not in the home at the time of the alleged burglary. While Watson and Charles have been identified, the third suspect has yet to be publicly identified. The pair can face charges related to the Pitt burglary in the coming days, per NBC 4.

Why Shedeur Sanders's demeanor was the most impressive part of Browns debut
Yahoo Sports host Andrew Siciliano, senior NFL writer Frank Schwab and senior NFL reporter Jori Epstein discuss the Browns rookie quarterback's performance in Friday's preseason game and what it could mean for him moving forward. Hear the full conversation on 'Inside Coverage' - and subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you listen. View more Video Transcript Frank, what really stood out to me is, is, and let's forget about, actually we can't forget about it. Obviously, the hype was there with the way he entered the building, uh, with cornerback Tony Brown by his side with a massive speaker on wheels blasting one of Shidoor's unreleased tracks that got a lot of pop. And a lot of cameras, and there was some national, there was a national network that described Tony Brown, a 6-year veteran of the NFL, a former track champion in high school, coming out of Texas as a member of his entourage, not just like a core special teams player who played 32 defensive snaps that night. Um, but when you saw all that hype, I think there were some people that were like, oh boy, here we go. But then he got out there and he looked the part. But Joey, the, the demeanor and the like, been there, done that calmness, and I think even the modesty on the Sideline when he was interviewed in game on the local news five broadcast with our friend Adii Kingawala where he didn't want to say, yeah, I did it, look at me, he gave himself Joy, a C grade when Adii asked him for a grade and all he did was point out the things he did wrong. Yeah, I love you mention the secrets and I we'll get to the Giants and Jackson Dart, who called his performance mid when asked by Brian D. So some say C, some say mid, some say average. We have to keep up with all of the terms. But I think for me, did we really ever have questions whether Shado Sanders was a gamer and whether he had the instincts and whether he can play backyard football. I think the question when I was there during mini camp was much more, hey, how can he operate the offense? Can he operate it cleanly? Can he make decisions at the line of scrimmage? Can he get all the moving parts rather than just rely on his own playmaking? And I think that's what the Browns were looking to see this weekend. Frank, I know you're in Colorado. I find it interesting you mentioned Tim Tebow, and listen, I'm not comparing them talent wise, I'm not comparing Shidoor and Tim Tebow. But what I am drawing the analogy or the the similarity here is the reaction online of, of the fans. Um, it's almost as if there's a, a Russian bot army out there, and I say that sarcastically. Any single piece of Shidor content, good, bad, indifferent. Matter of fact, presented without comment, will get. Like an amount of reaction that I don't know that I have ever seen since Tim Tebow. It is a polarization, um, a fanboy and I love to hate him that I have never seen since Tim Tebow. No, I, I, I mean, in some ways, and, and we kind of discussed this a little bit last week, one of the worst case scenarios for Kevin Stefanski was Shadour playing this well, and I'm not saying he's saying about Phil or anything like that. I'm saying now Stefanski can't stop the hype train. Like everybody's going to be asking about Shadour even more than they were before. And I think Shadour's been, it was very interesting and you brought up his sideline interview with Adii and she she kept trying to, and she's great at her job, absolutely professional. She kept trying to get him to say something positive, right? Like, hey, but what about this? What were you proud of? What were you? And she just kept the same way all the time. I didn't do well enough. I got to do better. I'm not where I need to be. I thought that was a very professional approach for a guy who does get all this attention unprecedented for a 5th round pick. I've never seen that before ever. Close
