That’s… not fun at all. Depressing if anything. The start of one of the worst runs at AMS that still damages the spidey brand to this day… but that’s my opinion…
InnocentTailor2025-10-13 08:33
Yeah. It’s just Parker getting kicked by folks over and over again.
RoxyFan20012025-10-12 10:27
Isn't he a little old for college? Tom Holland is 29 in real life now. Might as well just age him and have him working for the Daily Bugle and they could have Gwen Stacy, Felicia Hardy, Joseph Robertson and Eddie Brock working there too. They could also have J. Jonah Jameson hire Mac Gargan to investigate how Peter Parker gets pictures of Spider-Man to set up the Scorpion in the MCU.

Speaking of that, I feel a bit odd Sony and Marvel haven't announced any civilian characters for Brand New Day except MJ and Ned returning. We should be getting some idea of who will make up Peter's supporting cast by now.
RoxyFan20012025-10-12 10:51
Yeah. I am hoping we get more information soon. I am still waiting to find out who Sadie Sink is playing. I love Sadie and would like to see her play SpiderGwen/ Ghost Spider and she has said in interviews she wants to play a superhero and SpiderGwen is one of the superheroes she has named she is a fan of. There were rumours Anya Taylor-Joy was going to play Felicia Hardy/ Black Cat and when asked about them Amy Pascal said she couldn't confirm or deny them but said they have plans for Black Cat to be in the Spider-Man movies and she knows she is one of the characters fans have been wanting to see for years.

Please god no
RoxyFan20012025-10-12 11:52
Each their own but I have been waiting ages to get Black Cat in Live Action and we came close to getting her in 'Spider-Man 4' played by Anne Hathaway but the movie got cancelled, then we came close to getting her in 'The Amazing Spider-Man 3' played by Felicity Jones who played Felicia Hardy in 'The Amazing Spider-Man 3' but the movie got cancelled, then they had a solo 'Black Cat' movie in development and it got cancelled and a' Silver & Black' movie in development and it got cancelled.
Out of all the Spider-Man villains/ Antiheroes who have yet to be used in Live Action Black Cat is by far the most well known and a lot of my friends who like Spider-Man want Black Cat.
DuckyHornet2025-10-12 12:08
Nothing against the character
RoxyFan20012025-10-12 12:12
Okay.
Character_Mind_6712025-10-12 11:23
Tobey was 27 when he played 18 year old peter parker.
RoxyFan20012025-10-12 11:28
Yes. He was and he always looked older. It was like how 'Smallville' had a 25 year old Tom Welling playing a 15 year old Clark Kent in Season One and it didn't look believable.
Character_Mind_6712025-10-12 11:34
Peter would be about 20 by the time he gets his GED and starts college. Tom holland would definitely be IDed getting a drink if he wasn't famous. It's not much of a reach.
teshh2025-10-12 11:54
Idk the setting for the movie, but tom Holland also just looks young for his age. Same with ned, I could see them as upperclassmen in college if that's the route they go.
RoxyFan20012025-10-12 11:55
'Spider-Man: Homecoming' came out back in 2017 so that means 'Spider-Man Brand New Day' is going to come 9 years after that. For Peter Parker to still only be 20 after this many years makes no sense and would mean Cassie Lang has aged a lot quicker than him.
That is even slower than the ageing with 'Stranger Things' characters due to the breaks in between seasons. lol
decitronal2025-10-12 12:02
MCU Peter's canon birth year is 2001 and he was a blippie; assuming BND takes place in 2027 like other recent MCU projects he logically should still be in his early 20s lol
RoxyFan20012025-10-12 12:11
Well, if he is born in 2001 and the movie takes place in 2027 that would make him 25 or 26 which is better than him still being a teen after all these years. lol
Character_Mind_6712025-10-12 12:13
But cassie is aging 5 years earlier than peter because he was blipped.
RoxyFan20012025-10-12 12:27
Ohh yes. I forgot he was one of the characters that got blipped lol but other characters that got blipped like Yelena, Bucky, Star-Lord and Doctor Strange still look like they have aged.
Character_Mind_6712025-10-12 14:37
Well endgame was 5 years ago in-universe. They should have.
ethics_in_virtue2025-10-12 20:00
Welcome to the real world. People *do* age, they aren't their characters forever stuck in the screen
decitronal2025-10-12 12:13
You missed the part where he blipped.
An-292025-10-13 06:19
Pretty sure he actually got ID for trying to buy **his own drink brand**. [here](https://ew.com/tom-holland-id-was-rejected-while-attempting-to-buy-his-own-non-alcoholic-beer-brand-11682223)

Don't believe any civilian Gwen worked for the Daily Bugle, so she doesn't make sense (nor doesn't appear in the BND comic if the MCU were adapting bits from the original material). The same basically applies for Felicia Hardy for that matter.
There's no confirmation of any variant of Stacy appearing in BND at this stage, and if it was the 'civilian' version I'd suspect there would've already been a casting for a "Police Captain" by now.
I'd agree now would be the time to introduce any variant of Black Cat considering Webb was close to introducing a Black Cat as Felicia did appear in TASM 2 but as Harry's assistant (and Felicia also had some scenes cut out of TASM2 during Webb Harry's transformation into Goblin)
Trick_Afternoon_29352025-10-12 15:37
No, because Peter will be around 20 years old in BND.
Also, no thanks. I'm tired of seeing Peter working for the Bugle (which isn't even a newspaper in the MCU)
Marvel needs to move on from the outdated Bugle, and give Peter a new modern direction.
Bing_Bong_the_Archer2025-10-13 04:11
Peter will be a rent collector
Ragnarok_6192025-10-12 21:36
J Jameson will hire an incarcerated convict and arsonist to look after Spider-Man?
Dependent-Age81102025-10-12 17:42
Definitely
Dell0c02025-10-13 15:53
Peter is already going to be 3 years in to college in this film.
