New Spider-Man: Brand New Day Rumor Suggests One Villain Will Be Important For The Web-Slinger’s Future Films

Peter Parker without Spidey mask talking to other Peter Parker in Spider-Man: No Way Home.

Sure, the year-capping blockbuster Avengers: Doomsday seems to be inspiring the vast majority of MCU rumors here in 2026 so far, but don’t go counting out Spider-Man: Brand New Day. The upcoming Marvel movie is just five months away, but audiences are still in the dark about quite a few details about it and the webslinger’s future. If this latest rumor is to be believed, we may already know one villain who will keep Peter Parker on his tippy-toed A-game in new Spider-Man movies

Beyond Michael Mando’s return as Mac Gargan/Scorpion (who first appeared in Homecoming), the key villain revealed thus far is Tombstone (a.k.a. Lonnie Lincoln, as portrayed by Black Lightning vet Marvin Jones III. This marks the first time Tombstone will appear in live-action, and the second time fans will hear Jones in the role, as he first voiced the antagonist for Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse.
