Avengers: Doomsday And Secret Wars Just Got Major Release Shakeups, And Now I'm Wondering What This Means For Spider-Man: Brand New Day
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. With the exception of Avengers: Endgame, all of the Avengers movies have been May releases. Honestly, Endgame might as well count in that category since it came out on April 26, 2019. But now that late April/May streak is being broken. It's been officially announced that Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars have both been delayed, and the release shakeups for these upcoming Marvel movies has me wondering what this might mean for Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Let's get the big news out of the way first. Doomsday and Secret Wars, which were previously set for May 1, 2026 and May 7, 2027, respectively, are now pushed back to December 18, 2026 and December 17, 2027. Per sources that spoke with Deadline, these release date changes 'simply allow more time to execute on a gargantuan vision.' Marvel Studios also reportedly chose December because of how much luck its had with the 'holiday corridor,' most notably Spider-Man: No Way Home in 2021. Weirdly enough, this makes me a little more excited to see both these movies. I've enjoyed seeing Avengers movies kick off the summer blockbuster season stretching back to 2012, but there's something enticing about Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars helping bring their respective cinematic years to a close. I certainly enjoyed seeing Spider-Man: No Way Home right before Christmas, and we can count on Doomsday and Secret Wars to be even bigger events, as they're bringing The Multiverse Saga to a close. Last week, I wrote about the rumor that Sadie Sink is playing Mayday Parker, i.e. Peter Parker's daughter from an alternate universe, in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. At the time, I said that having Tom Holland's Peter team up with her would make sense in a post-Avengers: Doomsday landscape, as presumably the events of that movie will make travel across the multiverse easier. Now I'm not so sure this is happening. If Marvel and Sony keep Spider-Man: Brand New Day in its current release date, and the former has no problem with shifting Avengers: Doomsday to December, then that would indicate that Brand New Day's story is in no way affected by Doomsday. That, or the movie will need a massive rewrite as a result of this release date change, but if that were the case, then I'd hope Brand New Day was also delayed. The point being, maybe the next of Tom Holland's Spider-Man movies isn't a multiversal affair after all. Ever since the Spider-Man: No Way Home ending set Holland's Peter Parker up to continue his superhero activities with a new, custom-made Spidey suit and a 'back to basics' approach, many fans have been wanting to see him lead a more street-level movie. That would certainly work well with the latest rumor claiming that Scorpion, Tombstone and Boomerang will be the villains in Brand New Day. That doesn't necessarily mean you couldn't still keep things relatively street-level by throwing Mayday Parker into the mix, but if I have to choose between another multiverse-tinged team-up and something more grounded, at least by Spider-Man standards, I'm picking the latter. For now, Spider-Man: Brand New Day, which begins filming soon, is still slotted for release on July 31, 2026. Although you'll need to be signed up with Starz to stream Spider-Man: No Way Home, all of Tom Holland's prior MCU appearances can be streamed with the rest of the MCU catalog with a Disney+ subscription.

Avengers: Doomsday update leaves Marvel movie fans bitterly disappointed
Disney has made a crucial decision around the upcoming features Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars The Marvel Cinematic Universe has been left reeling after Disney announced a significant delay to the release of two highly anticipated Avengers films. Avengers: Doomsday, initially slated for release on May 1, 2026, has been pushed back to December 18, 2026, while its follow-up, Avengers: Secret Wars, has been delayed from May 7, 2027, to December 17, 2027. According to insiders, the delays are due to the massive scale of the productions, with the studio opting for a longer timeframe to bring their ambitious vision to life.

One fan expressed relief on social media: "Yesss pls take the time and cook a good product. Never been more happy about a delay. Was worried itt was gonna look s--t coz of the timeline." Another supporter commented: "I'm completely fine with that, having this movie being completely rushed to get to that date and end up being really awful is the worst choice, delaying is the best decision for MCU to do for this movie." A different user suggested a longer postponement: "It should've been longer, with a very tight production time they have right now i don't think they will even achieve the best possible quality by december." The announcement of the cast at San Diego Comic Con was met with excitement from Marvel fans.

Disney delays Avengers: Doomsday and Secret Wars release dates
Marvel Studios is shifting its release schedule, delaying its next two Avengers blockbusters to accommodate their massive production demands. Disney confirmed that Avengers: Doomsday will now premiere on December 18, 2026, while Avengers: Secret Wars is scheduled for December 17, 2027. Both films are directed by the Russo Brothers and are expected to be the most ambitious entries in the Marvel Cinematic Universe to date. According to insiders, the move gives the studio additional time to execute its grand vision. Disney is also betting on the holiday season for box office success, a strategy that worked well with Spider-Man: No Way Home. Avengers: Doomsday is already in production, and early reports suggest it will bring together characters from across the multiverse. Secret Wars, which follows, is expected to be the culmination of Marvel's multiverse saga. In addition to the Avengers delays, Disney has set new dates for other major titles. Ridley Scott's The Dog Stars, a post-apocalyptic drama starring Jacob Elordi, will release on March 27, 2026. The Devil Wears Prada 2 will follow on May 1, 2026, revisiting Meryl Streep's iconic role. Disney also plans an IMAX/3D re-release of Avatar: The Way of Water on October 3, 2025, ahead of the third installment, Avatar: Fire and Ash, arriving in December 2025. But for Marvel fans, the headline is clear: Earth's Mightiest Heroes will return, just a little later than expected.

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.

Quaid celebrated the film's streaming debut with behind-the-scenes photos on Instagram, calling Novocaine 'a brutally fun ride' and encouraging fans to tune in on Paramount+.

Additionally, Quaid stars in Neighborhood Watch, now available digitally, alongside Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Malin Akerman.
