Spider-Man 4 has been in development for over a year, and recent updates have revealed some exciting news. Destin Daniel Cretton will be directing the film, which is slated to begin filming in 2025.
However, neither Zendaya nor Tom Holland has officially signed on yet, as they are reportedly in the midst of contract negotiations.
Recent rumors suggest that the upcoming Spider-Man 4 is on the lookout for new male and female leads. Many fans have speculated that the male lead could be a villain while the female lead might be Black Cat, potentially becoming a new love interest for Tom Holland’s Spider-Man.
Given this, fans are optimistic that Sydney Sweeney will portray Black Cat, as she is the most talked-about character slated to appear in Spider-Man 4. Many fans are eager to see the popular Madame Web actress take on this role.
In Spider-Man: No Way Home, MJ was one of the people who forgot about Peter Parker when Doctor Strange cast his spell, which implies that their relationship is no longer intact, and she is moving forward with her life at MIT.
Reintroducing MJ’s memories too quickly in the MCU would diminish the emotional weight of No Way Home, so fans are looking forward to fresh supporting characters to shake things up.
In his latest Q&A, Alex Perez from Cosmic Circus addressed the rumors surrounding Black Cat’s appearance in Spider-Man 4. When a fan inquired about the possibility of Black Cat joining the film or later in the trilogy, Perez simply replied, “No.”
Spider-Man 4 is shaping up to be an exciting mix of new lead characters and the introduction of Symbiotes in the MCU, all set against a Multiversal backdrop. With so many elements in play, adding a character as significant to Spider-Man’s narrative as Black Cat could feel overwhelming at this point.
However, fans need not lose hope. There’s always a chance that Black Cat could make her way into the MCU through Daredevil, as the two characters have crossed paths in the comics and even shared a romantic connection.
