The next Spider-Man movie, Brand New Day, is heralding a fresh new start for the MCU’s take on Peter Parker. But a new day, a new costume, and new frenemies don’t stop Pete’s wild life from feeling any less familiar to chaos.
Sony and Marvel have just released our first official trailer for Spider-Man: Brand New Day, which sees Peter still grappling with the push-and-pull of his personal life and his career as the spectacular Spider-Man. It’s a push and pull made all the more complicated by the ramifications of his choices in Spider-Man: No Way Home, which erased the world’s memory of his secret identity… including his friendships and his romance with the love of his life, MJ.
As well as our first looks at Peter’s unlikely team-up with Daredevil‘s Frank Castle (with Jon Bernthal stepping back into the Punisher’s boots)—as he literally plows a van into Peter’s side—as well as the return of the Hulk himself (or at least, Mark Ruffalo’s Bruce Banner), the trailer focuses on Peter’s struggles trying to adapt to a world where he has lost his best friend and his girlfriend. Oh, and Peter’s stress building to give him some very interesting power evolutions.
Interestingly, the trailer doesn’t show us anything about Sadie Sink’s mysterious character. There’s been plenty of speculation about who she could play (including the idea she could be the herald of mutants into the MCU as Jean Grey), but the Stranger Things star and Marvel alike have been playing their cards close to their chests. Aside from Brand New Day, she’s also meant to appear in Avengers: Secret Wars in some capacity, so it’s clear her character will be big.
Before all that, though, we’ll have to see what’s cooking in the spider-verse when Spider-Man: Brand New Day hits theaters July 31.
