All about Stranger Things star Sadie Sink role in Spider-Man: Brand New Day
Since its announcement in March, fans are buzzing with excitement about Sadie Sink potentially joining the cast of Spider-Man: Brand New Day. But not much was disclosed about Sadie's on-screen character. Destin Daniel Cretton will direct Spider-Man: Brand New Day, which is scheduled to premiere in theaters on July 31, 2026. But a recent update has shifted the conversation's focus. Apparently, Sadie is not going to play a villain. Rather, she might be taking on the role of a superhero. Industry insider John Rocha revealed on a recent podcast, The Hot Mic, that Sadie Sink is portraying Mary Jane Watson and Peter Parker's daughter, Mayday Parker. Making new plot work in Spider-Man: Brand New Day The possibility that Spider-Man: Brand Recent Day will be based on the multiverse premise, which was already tampered with in the previous Spider-Man: No Way Home, has increased by this recent update. It is conceivable that the blending of histories will also guarantee Mayday Marker's encounter with Peter Parker from Earth-616, which would inevitably lead to Avengers: Secret Wars, given that Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield's versions of Spider-Man have crossed into Tom Holland's universe. Who is Mayday Parker? In 1998, Mayday Parker made his Marvel Comics debut in What If…? #105. She is referred to as Spider-Girl or Spider-Woman in various comic runs. She becomes a hero in her own right after inheriting her father's abilities. In 2023, her character appeared in animated episodes of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. However, this would be her debut appearance in a live-action movie. The remaining cast members are still being assembled by director Destin Daniel Cretton. Liza Colón-Zayas from The Bear is among the newest additions. However, her part in the movie is also still being kept a secret. Filming for Spider-Man: Brand New Day is anticipated to start later this year, following Tom Holland's completion of The Odyssey, directed by Christopher Nolan.

Sadie Sink Might Play Mayday Parker In Spider-Man: Brand New Day
Last Updated: Mayday Parker, the daughter of Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson, first appeared in Marvel Comics in What If…? #105 in 1998. Ever since Sadie Sink's name has been linked to Spider-Man: Brand New Day, fans have been busy guessing who she might play. The announcement came in March, but her character was never officially revealed. That led to all sorts of speculation. Some believed she might take on the role of Jean Grey. Others guessed that she might play Firestar or even Mary Jane Watson. Then came another round of rumours that Sadie could be playing Lily Hollister, better known as the villain Menace. That theory spread fast online. Many thought it made sense for the story. However, a new update has changed the direction of the discussion. It turns out, Sadie might not be a villain at all. Instead, she could be stepping into the shoes of a superhero. On a recent episode of the podcast The Hot Mic, industry insider John Rocha shared what he heard from a trusted source. According to him, Sadie Sink is playing Mayday Parker—the daughter of Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson. Rocha also mentioned that this Mayday won't be connected to Tom Holland's Spider-Man. She is said to be part of a different timeline, one that links her to Tobey Maguire's version of Peter Parker. That means she could be playing the daughter of Tobey's Peter and Kirsten Dunst's Mary Jane. Rocha said, 'My source heard Sadie Sink is playing Mayday Parker. So, connecting to the Tobey universe. She's his daughter." If this is true, the film may include a multiverse storyline. That could bring Sadie's Mayday into contact with Tom Holland's Spider-Man. More About Mayday Parker Mayday Parker first appeared in Marvel Comics in What If…? #105 in 1998. In different comic runs, she takes on the names Spider-Girl or Spider-Woman. She inherits powers from her father and becomes a hero in her own right. Her character made animated appearances in 2023's Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. But if this casting rumour turns out to be true, this would be her first time in a live-action film. Director Destin Daniel Cretton is still putting together the rest of the cast. One of the most recent additions is The Bear star Liza Colón-Zayas. But her role in the film is also being kept under wraps for now. Spider-Man: Brand New Day is expected to begin filming later this year after Tom Holland finishes shooting for Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey. The film is scheduled to hit theatres on July 31, 2026.

Sadie Sink cast as Mayday Parker in Spider-Man: Brand New Day
Marvel Studios' Spider-Man: Brand New Day continues to build hype with major casting rumors. According to Jeff Sneider via The Hot Mic, Sadie Sink is set to play Mayday Parker, a character tied to the multiverse and reportedly the daughter of Tobey Maguire's Peter Parker and MJ Watson. The film will reportedly bridge Tom Holland's MCU Spider-Man with legacy elements from previous universes. Mayday Parker's inclusion is a multiversal twist connecting to Maguire's Spider-Man timeline — raising fan theories about cross-generational web-slingers uniting. Meanwhile, Sarah Snook (Succession, The Beanie Bubble) is rumored to portray a secondary villain. Her character remains under wraps, but a recent Cosmic Circus report teased a 'dark, mysterious female' with Japanese shinobi/samurai-inspired armor, hinting at a potentially original or deep-cut Marvel character. Spider-Man: Brand New Day will follow the events of Avengers: Doomsday, with Peter Parker attempting to lead a normal life before a new threat forces his return to heroism. Destin Daniel Cretton will direct, with a script by Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers. Filming begins August 2025 in the UK, and the film is slated to release July 31, 2026. The cast includes Tom Holland, Zendaya, Sink, and Liza Colón-Zayas in undisclosed roles. Marvel Studios is also casting two additional villain roles.

Sadie Sink's SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY Role Reportedly Revealed, and it Links to Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man — GeekTyrant
Marvel fans have been tossing around theories over who Sadie Sink might play in Spider-Man: Brand New Day . From Jean Grey rumors to whispers of original characters, it's been a guessing game, but now, things are getting interesting. According to The Hot Mic podcast, co-host John Rocha claims that Sink is swinging into the MCU with a legacy. Rocha says that the Stranger Things star is playing Mayday Parker, the daughter of Tobey Maguire's Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson. That would be really interesting and cool if true. It not only digs into the Spider-Man mythos, it's also builds on the foundation laid by Spider-Man: No Way Home 's multiverse chaos. In the comics, May 'Mayday' Parker hails from an alternate future where Peter and MJ's child, originally believed to have died, was secretly saved and raised. As a teen, she inherits her father's powers and eventually suits up in Ben Reilly's Spider-Man costume to take on threats like Normie Osborn, grandson of the original Green Goblin. Chances are the creative team behind Brand New Day will change things up with her story if they do introduce her in the movie. But, there are a lot of storytelling possibilities. Jeff Sneider also chimed in, backing the Mayday Parker report and adding some additional info. According to Sneider, Sink's Mayday will befriend Tom Holland's Peter Parker in Brand New Day , potentially filling the emotional space left behind by MJ and Ned. He also said film's villain will be Mister Negative, a relatively newer but visually striking bad guy introduced during the Brand New Day comic run in the late 2000s. A secondary female villain may also appear, reportedly played by Succession star Sarah Snook. Oh, and there's still talk that Steven Yeun could portray Mister Negative himself, a.k.a. Martin Li. It will be interesting to see if any of this turns out to be true. Regardless, Spider-Man: Brand New Day is shaping up to be a true multiversal playground. Positioned between Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars , the film might serve as a bridge connecting Peter Parkers across dimensions while setting up deeper emotional stakes for Holland's web-slinger. Meanwhile, Sadie Sink remains playfully tight-lipped. When asked about the Jean Grey rumors (which appear unrelated now), she replied: "This is news to me. This is news to me. No, I have nothing to say about this. The rumours are really cool, though. It's an awesome rumour. I know the character. It's a great character, so that was cool to read." Directed by Shang-Chi 's Destin Daniel Cretton and written by Spider-Man: No Way Home scribes Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers, Spider-Man: Brand New Day swings into theaters on July 31, 2026. So what do you think? Would you be excited to see Sadie Sink suit up as Mayday Parker?
