Spider-Man & the Hulk Get the Perfect Marvel Team-Up in Brand New Day Fan Poster

In every standalone “Spider-Man” film within the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Peter Parker has encountered significant MCU characters like Tony Stark, Nick Fury, and Doctor Strange. A creative fan concept for an upcoming collaboration in “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” is generating buzz. Leaning on speculation about Mark Ruffalo potentially featuring in the movie, a Marvel enthusiast named welove_marvel posted a fan artwork on Instagram showcasing Spider-Man and Hulk teaming up for a chaotic street battle in New York City. The image depicts Spidey standing atop the Hulk’s back, with both characters poised to leap into action.

Rather than just making a brief appearance, Hulk will play a significant role in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, as suggested by the latest buzz about Mark Ruffalo’s involvement in the film.

The upcoming movie titled “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” is slated to premiere in July 2026, with filming expected to start towards the end of this year. Tom Holland will be reprising his role as Peter Parker. Additionally, stars from hit shows like Sadie Sink from “Stranger Things” and Liza Colón-Zayas from “The Bear” are joining the cast. As is customary with Marvel productions, specific plot points are being kept under wraps for now.

Scarcity of confirmed details on “Brand New Day” has led fans to speculate, seeking their fix of Spidey news through rumors. Some assume Sink is playing May “Mayday” Parker, while Colón-Zayas is slated for the role of Rio Morales (Miles Morales’ mother). There’s talk that Sink’s Mayday could be the daughter of Tobey Maguire’s Peter Parker and Kirsten Dunst’s Mary Jane Watson from the Sam Raimi “Spider-Man” trilogy. However, there’s been no official word on Ruffalo yet.

Despite sharing a battle in Avengers: Endgame, Peter Parker (Spider-Man) and Bruce Banner (Hulk) didn’t forge a personal bond during the Infinity Saga. If Hulk appears in Brand New Day, the story could introduce an intriguing dynamic as Peter encounters another original Avenger. Given their shared scientific backgrounds, it’s likely that they would quickly become friends, with Hulk stepping into a mentor role left vacant by Tony Stark. This setup could also provide an engaging way for Brand New Day to grapple with the poignant ending of Spider-Man: No Way Home. In the comic Immortal Hulk: Great Power, it’s shown that Hulk is aware that Peter Parker is Spider-Man, even when others, including Bruce Banner, forget. After selflessly giving up everything in No Way Home, a lonely Peter might find comfort in having someone to confide in.

As a dedicated film enthusiast, I must admit my disappointment upon noticing the absence of Mark Ruffalo and Tom Holland from the cast list of “Avengers: Doomsday.” Although Marvel has hinted at more revelations concerning this movie, it seems uncertain that Holland will make an appearance in it. The intriguing plot details for “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” suggest that the events unfold concurrently with “Doomsday,” which might explain why Peter Parker isn’t part of the former. It’s an exciting possibility that “Brand New Day” could pave the way for Ruffalo and Holland’s future involvement in “Avengers: Secret Wars.”

Some fans might prefer a more grounded, street-level narrative for “Brand New Day,” with minimal connections to the MCU. However, its close ties to both “Doomsday” and “Secret Wars” could indicate that we’re in store for some multiverse-shaking events. If handled well, “Brand New Day” could prove to be a thrilling addition to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, bringing together two beloved characters.
