If you weren't already planning on taking a trip to the movie theater this weekend to see The Odyssey, then you might want to think again, as a new Spider-Man: Brand New Day trailer has been released, but you can only see it on the big screen.
The new trailer, which has been leaked online, offers a deeper look at Tom Holland's Peter Parker as he navigates a world where no one knows who he really is, including his best friend Ned and his girlfriend MJ. The video contains a flashback to Parker's budding relationships in Homecoming, Far From Home, and finally No Way Home, when he promised MJ he would come find her after her memory was wiped. But in Brand New Day, it looks like he's still working up the courage to tell her the truth.
It makes sense that Sony would choose to show the final trailer in cinemas, as many Spider-Man fans will be going to see Holland and Zendaya in Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, which has just hit screens. With the ancient Greek epic now out in theaters, there are only two more weeks to wait until we see Holland swap Telemachus' spacious villa in Ithaca for Parker's cramped New York City apartment.
Later in the trailer, Trammell Tillman's character warns Spidey of a new threat "that could be anyone." In the next frame, Spider-Man is fighting Scorpion and says, "Are you sure you want to do this, Scorpion?" to which the villain replies, "You think I'm Scorpion?" This confirms what past trailers have teased: that Brand New Day's villain is some kind of invisible mind-controller using other comic book baddies as their puppets.
Many fans believe that the villain in question is mutant Jean Grey, who may or may not be played by Stranger Things star Sadie Sink. Grey is one of the most powerful Marvel heroes of all time, with telepathic and telekinetic abilities. The future member fo the X-Men has also been known to shift to the dark side every now and again, becoming a hub for dark energy, as we saw in the 2006 film X-Men: The Last Stand and 2016's Dark Phoenix.
With that in mind, Grey may be the mastermind behind Brand New Day's antagonistic army, including Boomerang, The Hand, and more. However, the Brand New Day synopsis teases a villain that "no one can see," and Holland has confirmed that the villain is still very much a secret. With that on top of Sink's mystery character and Mark Ruffalo's Bruce Banner, who seems to be going full-on Savage Hulk in the new trailer, Parker really has his work cut out for him this time.
Spider-Man: Brand New Day swings into cinemas on July 31 in the US and July 29 in the UK. For more, check out our guides to upcoming Marvel movies and how to watch the Marvel movies in order.
