In Tom Holland’s “Spider-Man: A Fresh Start,” it has been officially confirmed that two significant characters from the Marvel Cinematic Universe will make appearances in the upcoming “Spider-Man 4.” As production for this movie begins this summer, viewers can anticipate seeing these two familiar MCU characters sharing screen time with Tom Holland’s Peter Parker, set for release in 2026. Previous reports about the cast have been confirmed by newcomer to the MCU, Sadie Sink, who will be joining the film in a yet-to-be-specified role.
According to a recent update from The Hollywood Reporter, it has been verified that Jon Bernthal’s character, Frank Castle/Punisher, will be teaming up with Holland in the upcoming film “Spider-Man: Fresh Start.” Furthermore, Jacob Batalon, who played Peter Parker’s former best friend Ned, is expected to reappear in the Marvel Cinematic Universe; however, the extent of his involvement has yet to be determined.
In a recent development, Jon Bernthal reappears as The Punisher in Disney+’s “Daredevil: Born Again” series, resurrecting his role following a two-season stint on Netflix. This anti-hero seems to be a significant point of interest for Marvel Studios in 2026, as a standalone “Punisher” Special Presentation is set to debut on Disney+. Moreover, there’s a strong possibility that Bernthal will make another appearance in Season 2 of “Born Again,” which could potentially stretch the character’s storyline into a three-episode arc next year.
Following the memory-erasing charm cast by Doctor Strange in “Spider-Man: No Way Home,” leaving everyone on Earth unsure about who Peter Parker is, it’s been uncertain if Ned, a significant character throughout Jon Watts’ Spider-Man trilogy, would reappear.
Spider-Man: Brand New Day swings into theaters on July 31, 2026.
