- A new Marvel -leakage has reportedly revealed which villains will appear in Spider-Man 4
- Three members of the Web Heads Rogues Gallery could be displayed in the MCU movie
- It is unclear if there is any truth in this particular marvel -phase 6 -movie rumors
Here we go again. Just days after several X-Men movies restarted smokers rumors appeared online, speculation about which villains will appear in Spider-Man: Brand new day has begun to circulate * ahem * web.
The superhero movie, intended to be released in July 2026, is expected to start shooting sometime in August. It is not so unexpected that rumors of which members of the webhead Rogues Gallery appear in the co-developed Marvel and Sony images that flick.
What is surprising is the source that is leaked that villains will appear in the Marvel Phase 6 movie. Yes, there will reportedly be more bad guys for Tom Holland’s Peter Parker to meet against.
Before I dive into the said leak, it is worth a few things in mind.
You, take these rumors with a huge pinch of salt-to Marvel and/or Sony say something else, or a world-famous trading publicity with solid contacts in the industry, such as deadline or Hollywood reporter, suggests that this is true, it is best to treat this as a presumption. The second thing? Potentially large spoilers follow immediately For Spider-Mans next big screen adventure, then continue with extreme caution.
Okay, let’s get down in business. Earlier today (May 20), Instagram -User Trusthigashi went to the social media platform to reveal that they had participated in the 2025 edition of Disney’s Consumer Products event. This year’s presentation took place in Las Vegas and included the announcement of an agreement between Disney and F1, as well as casting by Conan O’Brien as a new character called Smarty Pants in Toy Story 5.
But back to Brand new day. As part of the said presentation, Trusthigashi claims Disney confirmed that three villains would appear in Spider-Man 4. Scorpion if Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) debut was teased in 2017’s Spider-Man: Homecoming – Also the 15th post on our best Marvel film list – is among this trio. According to Trusthigashi, who participates in Mack Gargan on villains, Lonnie is Lincoln/Tombstone and Frederick Meyers/Boomerang.
Interestingly enough, Steven Yeun (The Walking DeadAt Invincible) that was originally hired to play Sentry in Marvel’s Thunderbolts* Movies before planning conflicts forced him to drop, was attached (per industry insider mytimetoshinehello, whose track record is best described as mixed), by playing a villain in Spider-Man 4 on May 19th.
While some observers assumed he had been chosen to produce Martin Li/Mister-Negative in Cartoon flick, other Marvel fans went to Reddit to point out that hiring a Korean actor in Yeun to play a Chinese character would be a controversial step on Marvel and Sony’s part. So many suspect that if yeun is in conversations to appear in Brand new dayIt won’t be like one of Wallcrawlers recently created villains.
So what are the odds that Trusthigashi’s leak has more than one air of legitimacy for it?
It’s hard to say. On the one hand, the section on captions in their Instagram post contains proof that they were present at Disney’s consumer products 2025 presentation. It would then be very surprising if they made the things about Brand new day‘s villains.
However, it would also be weird for Disney to reveal which of the webslings’s most notorious antagonists would appear in Spider-Man 4. Sony owns the live-action rights to the character, so unless Disney got the green light from his colleague studio to drop this information at the event, I doubt Sony would be happy to learn that a rival revealed this key story detail before it could.
That said, Marvel (and by proxy, Disney) owns the rights to Spider-Man’s Merchandising offer. Given that this presentation took place during a three-day event dedicated to consumer products — where merchandising is such a arm-ser Disney to have the right to discuss all things Spider-Man as it sees appropriate.
Whether you believe in the threathigashis leak, with the main photography to start on Brand new day Soon it won’t be long before we get official confirmation of who actually appears in one of 2026’s most expected new films. It includes the apparent role that Sadie Sink has in Spider-Man 4with Stranger Things Star allegedly knocked on Co-Star with the Netherlands and Zendaya, who are also expected to return as MJ.
Spider-Man: Brand new day is currently ready to arrive in theaters on July 31, 2026.
