Friendly_neighborhood_spidey98 : As a big fan of Spider-Man and a big baby about body horror, I’m not loving the teasing of a potential “man-spider” story in Brand New Day, do you think we’ll get a full on Man-Spider in Brand New Day or just some increased aggression from Peter?
Alex Perez : I have heard about the concept of Man-Spider, but certain producers have expressed concern about how family audiences will react to an 8-legged monster appearing in the movie, so last I heard, they don’t want to do that.
OTHER Brand New Day RELATED QUESTIONS :
Kaweebo : How well would you say Spider-Man’s absence during Daredevil : Born Again is handled in Brand New Day, or is it basically ignored aside from a small Sheila appearance?
Alex Perez : Elements will be weaved into it in ways that will affect both the movie and Daredevil: Born Again in future seasons.
Michael : Based on shots from the Brand New Day, teasers (both leaked and official), how do you see Peter & MJ’s relationship evolving in Brand New Day, and then in Doomsday/Secret Wars, which the Russos have described as a “beginning story” ?
Alex Perez : MJ’s not involved in Doomsday as far as I know.
Vic : After Secret Wars and the reboot of the entire universe, how high do you think the chance is for Spider-Man to appear in street-level projects? Even if it’s someone else’s show/movie, but just to see him finally cooperate with other street-level characters more often and not just in his own movies.
Alex Perez : Aside from the animated format, very difficult. Because there hasn’t been any common ground reached in terms of allowing Spidey to show up in shows like Daredevil : Born Again, The Punisher, and Heroes for Hire.
daofeiboy : Given the fact that Valentina has a long network and number of assets to rely on, I’ve been thinking if she might be connected to Brand New Day in some way, with the amount of villains and enhanced people Peter is going to fight. Will there be any reference to her at all in the film linking her to something of the criminal underworld ?
Alex Perez : Hehehehe. Tune in to find out, that’s all I’ll say.

Charlie Cox once again confirms that Daredevil will not be making a cameo in "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" : “Unless they put me in after the fact using computer-generated images, I’m not there. I promise. I’m sorry” | 2026 BAFTA Games Awards
instagram.comJoe Russo teases ‘Avengers: Endgame’ re-release, says the film will feature new footage set within the ‘Doomsday’ narrative: “It’s an Opportunity to create a bridge”
Joe Russo : “It’s an opportunity to create a bridge from Endgame to Doomsday in a very unique way, and because the movie was so successful, we have an opportunity to re-release it. You don’t always get the chance to re-release because it costs money, so the fact that we can enhance the story of Doomsday by bridging it to Endgame and these characters that we worked with for years that we love so much, and continue their story: It’s a really unique opportunity.”
Joe continued to describe the upcoming Endgame re-release as a *"*critical companion story” and a “setup for what you’re gonna watch in December [in] Avengers Doomsday".
Charlie Cox opens up about Daredevil's team-up with Bullseye: "Oh, God.. IDK, I think it's so muddy. But maybe it can be argued that at least he has the presence of mind to potentially recognize a greater evil in the present moment to stop him [Fisk]"

xcancel.comFormer Marvel Studios artists speak out on Disney layoffs and possible AI use : "The vis-dev team has been there for 20 years, and to just dissolve it like that, it's really unfortunate for these people who showed loyalty to the company"
Former artist **Michael Uwandi** ('Moon Knight', Captain America: Brave New World') :
>*"A lot of times, when these movies come across our plate, we are assigned certain characters, but usually we don't even have a script in the beginning, so it's truly allowing us to create visuals that will inspire the movie, designing things like the characters, their costumes, \[and\] keyframes, which are essentially a still shot of a scene in the movie that's usually either action-oriented or story-oriented."*
>*"The Marvel vis dev team has been there for 20 years, and to just dissolve it like that — it's really unfortunate for these people who showed loyalty to the company."*
> *"A lot of them are huge fans [of Marvel comics]. Their understanding of the source material is on a whole ‘nother level. When you have that kind of understanding, it really allows you to play when it comes to designs because you're not having to study while doing [it]. Now, of course, we still do, but when you understand something to that level, you know exactly what the fans want to see. You know exactly how to push and pull while keeping it fan-friendly.”*
>In contrast, Uwandi says that those from the film industry side of things tend to “try and run away from” the look of the comic books.
Anonymous former artist who worked on 'Deadpool & Wolverine' & 'F4: First Steps' :
>*"This [visual development team] was something that Kevin [Feige] really wanted because, being a comic book fan, [he had] a particular vision of how things should be translated. This team was very specific, and we were often told that other departments don't like having this team on — not like a rivalry, but some sort of politics [were] going on in between these different departments."*
