Spider-Man: Brand New Day Rumors Tip Female Shapeshifting Villain as New Set Footage Surfaces

Tom Holland reports a steady recovery from a minor on-set concussion.

Overview

  • Multiple scoopers now suggest the primary antagonist could be Shathra, with Sadie Sink linked to the role, though neither detail is confirmed by the studio.
  • On The Hot Mic, John Rocha reported the main foe is a female shapeshifter and said MJ reportedly has a new boyfriend, a rumor he says informs a darker tone.
  • Fresh location videos show a tank chase ending in a violent flip into a building as the Department of Damage Control converges, with observers speculating on who is involved.
  • Rocha’s reporting indicates Tombstone and Scorpion are not the central villains, as the street-level ensemble is said to also feature the Punisher and the Hulk.
  • Destin Daniel Cretton directs from a Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers script with Tom Holland starring, and the film is slated for theatrical release on July 31, 2026.
