Look: Tom Holland, Zendaya attend 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' premiere

  • On Sunday night at the Hollywood premiere of Spider-Man: Brand New Day, musician Steve Lacy appeared to spoil a major Marvel secret by naming "Jean" as the film's villain during a livestream interview.
  • Marvel had kept actress Sadie Sink's role under wraps since her March 2025 casting, while fan theories linking her to the iconic X-Men mutant Jean Grey circulated for over a year due to teaser footage.
  • While Lacy did not explicitly link the character to Sink, his comment landed "like a grenade," triggering immediate online reactions that confirmed the studio's carefully guarded casting secret.
  • Critic Siddhant Adlakha dismissed the incident, arguing that "anyone who could possibly care" had already figured out the character's identity and the studio's marketing of it as a twist was unnecessary.
  • The 38th MCU entry opens in the US on Friday, with some advising viewers to avoid social media before release to prevent further plot revelations.
