The next Spider-Man movie, starring Tom Holland as Peter Parker, is scheduled for release in 2026. Joining him will be Sadie Sink, who is famous for her role as Max Mayfield in Stranger Things.
During an interview on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, Sadie Sink shared a story and confirmed that a fan’s guess about how she landed her role in the movie was actually correct.
Details about Sadie Sink’s role in Spider-Man: Brand New Day are still a secret. Sink admitted the constant fan speculation is difficult. “It’s torture. There’s so much guessing going on,” she said. She’s been sharing hints with friends and family about the character she’ll be playing in the upcoming Spider-Man movie.
Sadie Sink revealed she first learned about her role through online fan theories. Before she was officially cast, people were speculating online that she might be in the new Spider-Man movie. She laughed, saying she wondered if it was true, and then just two days later, she received an offer to join the cast. Sink noted that there’s often a grain of truth to these kinds of online predictions.
There’s been a lot of online speculation about which Marvel character Maya Sink will play in the new Spider-Man: Brand New Day movie. Many fans believe she might be Gwen Stacy, Spider-Man’s original love interest, especially since Mary Jane Watson already exists within the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Rumors suggest Sink is being considered for several roles, such as Jean Grey, Firestarter (Angelica Jones), Shathra, Rachel Cole-Alves, Scream the Symbiote, and Black Cat (Felicia Hardy), to name a few.
Leaked Spider-Man Trailer Gives a Clue Regarding Sink’s Character
A recent report from ComicBookMovie suggests we might now know what role Sadie Sink will have in the upcoming movie.
According to the leaked trailer, Sadie Sink’s character tells Spider-Man, “You’re a mess. Stay out of my way, or people will forget Peter Parker—not just your friends.”
A line delivered by Emma Roberts’ character hints that she knows Peter Parker’s secret identity, even after the events of Spider-Man: No Way Home. This has led fans to believe her character might be Shathra, an ancient wasp goddess from Earth-001’s Loomworld.
In November 2025, Sadie Sink remained tight-lipped about her role in an upcoming movie. At the premiere of Stranger Things Season 5, she playfully told Entertainment Tonight she’d been caught off guard, thinking it was just the Stranger Things event and hadn’t prepared any remarks. When asked for a single word to describe her character in a Spider-Man film, Sink simply responded, “No.”
Joining Sink and Holland in Spider-Man: Brand New Day are Zendaya, Jon Bernthal, Mark Ruffalo, Tramell Tillman, Jacob Batalon, Marvin Jones III, Liza Colón-Zayas, and Michael Mando. The movie is scheduled for release in theaters on July 31, 2026.
