Highlights
New footage from Spider-Man: Brand New Day confirms J. Jonah Jameson's likely return. The footage also provides a clearer look at Spider-Man's new suit, which draws inspiration from Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield's versions. The suit features shiny new web-shooters, and villains like Michael Mando's Scorpion have been seen posting from the set.
A detailed look at Spider-Man's new suit in broad daylight reveals a practical costume with raised webbing, reminiscent of Captain America: Civil War. This suit is designed to appear homemade and repaired, featuring mechanical web-shooters and eyelids taken from previous Stark Tech suits. The suit is a refined version of the 'final swing' suit from Spider-Man: No Way Home, with minor modifications like raised webbing.
Tom Holland is seen actively engaging with fans on set, showing his enjoyment of the Spider-Man role. Kevin Feige has indicated that Sony plans to introduce Miles Morales in live-action after the 'Spider-Verse' movies, potentially as the main Spider-Man for Sony's Marvel universe spin-offs. This aligns with a broader 'reset' in Marvel's continuity post-Secret Wars.
A significant scene involves Spider-Man fighting on a tank, which appears to be from Damage Control. The tank also bears a symbol possibly linked to Mr. Negative's Inner Demons gang, suggesting a connection between Damage Control and the villains. This hint aligns with the idea that Punisher might also receive upgrades from Damage Control and could face off against Spider-Man.
Reports suggest the film will feature multiple villains, including Tombstone, Tarantula, Ramrod, and potentially Boomerang. Tombstone, a prominent Spider-Man character, is known for his virtually indestructible skin due to a chemical mutation. Tarantula's inclusion aligns with previous leaks about comic book covers being recreated in the movie. Ramrod, a Daredevil villain, and Boomerang are also expected, most likely as technology-based adversaries. Mr. Negative is speculated to be the main villain, potentially equipping these villains through his ties to Damage Control.
Despite speculation, Vincent D'Onofrio's Kingpin is not expected to appear in the movie due to Sony holding the film rights. However, Ned Leeds and MJ (Zendaya) are likely to return in reduced roles, indicating a focus on introducing new supporting characters while maintaining connections with old ones for the next Spider-Man trilogy.
