Mark Ruffalo and Michael Mando Allegedly Joining Spider-Man: Brand New Day
Tom Holland's Spider-Man movies have always had an Avenger-level guest star with the films running through Tony Stark, Nick Fury, and lately Doctor Strange. Now with Brand New Day incoming, it's no surprise that another Avenger has signed on for a 'substantial role'. Apparently Nexus Point News is saying that Mark Ruffalo is set to make an appearance as the Hulk/Bruce Banner in Spider-Man: Brand New Day . It's said that his role will be 'much larger than a cameo', so it's possible that he could be Spider-Man's in back to the good graces of Earth's Mightiest Heroes. We don't know exactly which bonds Peter had decided to salvage after the events of No Way Home , but we know that he's going to be staying away from his remaining loved ones in order to keep them safe. At best, he probably reintroduced himself to Doctor Strange, but everyone else does remember who Spider-Man is; it's Peter Parker nobody knows anymore. As for Hulk, his last major appearance was in the series She-Hulk: Attorney at Law where it's revealed that he has a son. Marvel never pulled on that thread for years , but maybe we'll finally get to see where that goes before the events of Avengers: Doomsday. Besides Ruffalo, it's also said that Michael Mando is also in talks to make a return as Scorpion/Mac Gargan. His last appearance had him getting seriously injured by Peter, and it wouldn't be surprising if he comes back in a bit role as a thug with some upgraded tech, ready to clash with Spider-Man. Then again, this is just speculation for now. The way Marvel works, we don't know how much they're willing to suddenly change behind-the-scenes. Spider-Man: Brand New Day is set to come out in theaters on July 31, 2026.

Leak Alert! These Could Be The Villains Of Spider-Man: Brand New Day
Last Updated: An Instagram user recently teased the addition of three classic comic villains, including Scorpion, Boomerang, and Tombstone. Spider-Man: Brand New Day is all set to swing back into action. With the makers now busy with shooting of the sequel around the world, updates continue to pique excitement among fans, with casting details now making headlines. While Tom Holland's Peter Parker will be returning as the beloved friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man, a fresh buzz has started making rounds about the future villains. Chris Higashi, who attended the Disney Blockbuster Consumer Products presentation in Las Vegas, shared an exciting update about the new Marvel movie. Mentioning that Spider-Man was one of the top titles on the agenda at the presentation, his post stated specifically, 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day, Scorpion, Boomerang, and Tombstone. 'Nuff Said. 2026 looks awesome!" 'SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY' will seemingly feature Scorpion, Tombstone and Boomerang as is according to a sizzle reel shown at a Disney Blockbuster Consumer Products panel. (via trusthigashi | IG) — Cosmic Marvel (@cosmic_marvel) May 20, 2025 It is worth mentioning that Scorpion and Tombstone have already made an appearance in the animated Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, playing the role of Kingpin's henchmen. Their mention at the event has now only shaken up the recent rumours surrounding the film, especially its characters. The official title for the upcoming Spider-Man film was revealed in April this year, with the release date now scheduled for July 31, 2026.

Holland has been confirmed to be returning as Peter Parker, while Sadie Sink recently joined the cast, expected to play a key character. Spider-Man New Look It was not just the villains that Higashi teased on his Instagram. In a now-deleted post, he seems to have accidentally unveiled the first look of the superhero costume. In the post that featured several Disney films of 2026, there was a subtle glimpse of Parker's costume, which appeared quite similar to the one he wore at the end of No Way Home; however, in darker shades. Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, Spider-Man: Brand New Day is scheduled to hit theatres on July 31, 2026. First Published:

SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY - What's Going On With Ned Leeds and the Rumored Villain? — GeekTyrant
There's a couple of new rumors swinging in around regarding Spider-Man: Brand New Day , and if you've been wondering about what is going on with Ned Leeds or who Spidey might be up against in the movie, there's a couple rumors to chew on. Let's start with Jacob Batalon's Ned. While he played a main role of the first three films, it sounds like he'll be taking a back seat in the next film. According to inside scooper MTTSH, 'Batalon's Ned Leeds only makes a cameo in the most recent draft of the script.' Given how No Way Home ended with Peter erased from everyone's memory, I guess it makes sense he would move on. The franchise is shifting toward new territory, and it looks like Ned's off the board, at least for now. Brand New Day is sure to introduce a whole new supporting cast centered around Peter's college life. That pivot includes speculation around who the next villain might be. The name rumored is Mr. Negative. The reports around Mr. Negative picked up after Marvel's Spider-Man video game actor Stephen Oyoung was asked if he'd been contacted about a live-action version of the character. His answer was vague, saying: 'I have not been contacted by Sony. Let me just say I know certain things, but as far as contacting me, that is yet to manifest itself,' Oyoung said. 'I have sort of a nebulous idea, but I also kind of have no idea. Marvel, and gaming, and Sony. There are so many big parts. There is so much machinery to this that even if I did know, I couldn't tell you if I wanted to. 'What I can say, though, is, again, I am hopeful, very, very hopeful. Personally, I think there is a pretty good chance you will see Mr. Negative in the future in some sort of media, whether it is me or not.' Word is that Into the Badlands star Daniel Wu is now the frontrunner to play Mr. Negative, and there are even claims of concept art featuring his likeness. While the first three MCU Spidey films weren't directly named after comic arcs, Brand New Day is. In the comics, that storyline follows Peter rebuilding his life after the status-reshuffling events of One More Day and Civil War . With No Way Home ending on a similarly life-altering note, this next chapter could draw from that same well, even if the adaptation is more spiritual than literal. Some fans are speculating that Sadie Sink may have joined the cast as either Carlie Cooper or Lily Hollister, aka the villain Menace. Neither character is confirmed, but Brand New Day offers plenty of room for reinvention. There's also a rumored synopsis making the rounds, which reads: 'Following the events of Doomsday, Peter Parker is determined to lead a normal life and focus on college, stepping back from his responsibilities as Spider-Man. 'However, peace is short-lived when a deadly new threat emerges, endangering his friends and forcing Peter to reconsider his promise. With stakes higher than ever, Peter reluctantly returns to his Spider-Man identity and finds himself teaming up with an unlikely ally to protect those he loves.' While the synopsis doesn't give much away, the 'unlikely ally' line has triggered a fresh round of theories—some think it could be Sink's character, others are hoping for a surprise twist from the broader MCU. Director Destin Daniel Cretton teased what's ahead during CinemaCon: 'I'm spending my time exploring the next stage of this amazing character with a team of the most incredible artists in the world. We're all, just daily, nerding out over the suit, how to swing, how to create an event, an emotional story, and a ride that we haven't really seen before.' Tom Holland, who's busy filming Christopher Nolan's Odysseus, chimed in with a quick video message: 'I am so sorry I can't be with you. I am halfway around the world shooting a movie. I know we left you with a massive cliffhanger at the end of No Way Home, so Spider-Man: Brand New Day is a fresh start. It is exactly that. That's all I can say.' Production kicks off in August, and the film was recently shifted to a new release date: July 31, 2026.

Is Andrew Garfield returning as Spider-Man? Only if it gets weird enough
The Spider-Verse just got spicier, and no, it is not another Tom Holland update. Andrew Garfield — the internet's favourite sad-boy Spider-Man — has once again sent Marvel stans into a frenzy. Speaking at the Middle East Film & Comic Con in Abu Dhabi, Garfield hinted that he would consider donning the red and blue suit again, but only under one very dramatic condition: it has got to be weird. Is Andrew Garfield returning as Spider Man? Yes, you read that right. The man who made millions sob in No Way Home is down to swing back into action — but he is not looking for a typical heroic comeback. Garfield said that if he were to return, it would need to be in a version of the story that is 'very unique' and 'offbeat.' Think Spider-Verse chaos, multiverse madness, and creative freedom to the max. What is Andrew Garfield hinting at? He specifically gushed over Sony's animated Spider-Verse films, saying that those movies showed how the Spider-Man mythos could be twisted in the best ways. Garfield is clearly vibing with the idea of breaking the traditional superhero mould. No standard sequel energy here — he wants the bizarre, the unexpected, the straight-up trippy. Fans have not stopped theorising since his jaw-dropping cameo in Spider-Man: No Way Home, where he swung into action alongside Tobey Maguire and Tom Holland. The nostalgia was real, the tears were flowing, and the demand for The Amazing Spider-Man 3 went from zero to trending in minutes. Is this all a lie? But before you get too excited, let us not forget Garfield's track record of being Marvel's sneakiest liar. When asked in January about showing up in Spider-Man 4 with Holland, he played coy, saying fans would be disappointed. But if No Way Home taught us anything, it is to trust nothing — especially when Andrew Garfield denies it. So, is he coming back? Possibly. Will it be multiverse-level madness if he does? Absolutely. The ball is in Marvel's court — and if they want Garfield back, they will have to bring the weird.

Andrew Garfield says yes to Spider-Man return with one very strange condition: ‘Would love to play the character…'
Andrew Garfield is open to stepping back into the Spider-suit — but on one very specific condition. The Amazing Spider-Man star, who previously portrayed Peter Parker in 2012 and 2014, and returned in spectacular fashion for 2021's Spider-Man: No Way Home, recently teased the possibility of reprising his role again. Speaking at the Middle East Film & Comic Con in Abu Dhabi, Garfield addressed the question that has been on every fan's mind: would he return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe? 'I really love playing Spider-Man. I would love to play the character again in some capacity,' he said. 'But I think it would have to be very weird.' Garfield didn't elaborate on plot specifics, but he made it clear that he wouldn't be interested in a standard sequel or a straightforward storyline. Instead, he's intrigued by the more creative, experimental interpretations of the character, particularly the kind seen in Sony's animated Spider-Verse films. 'I would want to do something very unique, and offbeat, and surprising,' he continued. 'Kind of like the creative freedom that they have with the animated Spider-Verse movies. I think they're so great, and you can honour the character in so many different ways through the multiverse.' With the introduction of the multiverse, which is now well established in Marvel's cinematic playbook, multiple versions of the same character can co-exist and even team up. Garfield's return in No Way Home alongside Tobey Maguire and Tom Holland proved just how eager fans are to explore these possibilities. Since then, speculation has been rampant about whether Garfield might lead his own Spider-Man film once again. However, Garfield has remained intentionally vague. In an earlier interview with GQ this January, he responded to rumours about appearing in Spider-Man 4 with Tom Holland by saying, 'I'm gonna disappoint you. Yeah, no. But I know no one's going to trust anything I say from now on.' Considering the elaborate secrecy that surrounded his involvement in No Way Home, fans are taking his denials with a sizable grain of salt. While there's no official confirmation of Garfield's return, one thing is clear: if Marvel wants him back, they'll have to get creative. And in a cinematic universe where timelines collide, heroes swap dimensions, and anything is possible, it might just be the perfect time to get weird.
