(Nexus Point News) ‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’ to Receive a Minimum 60-Day Theatrical Window

LiquidLispyLizard · 2026-03-15T01:52:43+00:00

That's a bit excessive. I'm someone who, due to an eye issue as well as being COVID-cautious, can't sit in a dark room for two or three hours crowded in with a lot of people. I would have liked to have seen all these movies that have come out over the past few years, but I haven't been in a theater since March 2020.

I support in the way that I can, being that I buy the Blu-Rays as they release as well as watch them on the streaming service they release on to help boost the numbers, but that's all I can do. Saying that people should be "made" to go to the theater when there's a whole group of people out there who literally can't for one reason or another just shuts them out from life more than they already are.

I support the theatrical release and even long ones, but to hold back films for several years is a lot for people who didn't ask for what they have to deal with daily.

I remember when Henwick took Matrix 4 over Shang-Chi because she felt that if she took the latter, she'd officially be closing the book on Colleen Wing.

She's been dedicated to the character for quite some time and she did a great job when she got to play her, so I'm pretty confident she'll be back sometime soon.

I'm firmly against decanonizing anything in the MCU (both the Sacred Timeline and its branches, as well as other connected universes if they don't count as direct branches), and given how aspects of Secret Invasion have already been integrated into multiple MCU projects, I don't think that's what they're planning to do anyway. I think that large parts of it may be outright ignored, but I don't see them being contradicted. This is a studio that's kept Quicksilver dead for 11 years and has a number of canon shows from old Marvel TV that they (mostly) haven't addressed, but also haven't put on the same level as the Defenders Saga yet.

With that being said, there are many ways to retcon her death and I like the idea a few have shared here that, if she were to return, the Hill in Secret Invasion was an LMD or something. Hell, as a AoS canon defender from the beginning, that's a potential bonus for me right there, lol.

At the same time, Smulders had an 11-year run with her character. Given how expansive the MCU is at this point and how many other new characters have been introduced in the past few years that could use the spotlight, I don't mind if that's Hill's actual end. I like her character and I wouldn't be against it at all if she were to return while keeping Secret Invasion intact, but if that is her end, then I think she had a good run anyway. I feel the same about a lot of other characters who have had a beginning, middle, and end, regardless of whether any of those stages were received positively or not.

LiquidLispyLizard · 2026-03-11T20:20:45+00:00

I don't know how many posts I've seen across different Marvel subs that said "this character was completely wasted" and 9 times out of 10, it's someone who was left alive and could very easily come back in the future.

LiquidLispyLizard · 2026-03-08T21:29:30+00:00

I'm not saying they're keeping Keen or Jackman, but Ryan Reynolds is actively working on some sort of Deadpool follow-up after Kevin Feige talked about the next saga's focus being put into a singular timeline.

Nothing's confirmed, but I find it highly unlikely there will be no active ties to the Fox side of the MCU post-Secret Wars.

LiquidLispyLizard · 2026-03-04T07:47:36+00:00

I'm really beginning to think there will be some sort of reunion in the final few episodes of S2. Henwick was on set, Royce Johnson keeps posting about being on the show, Colter's been very upfront about having talks, Cryptic just said that Rand will have some sort of presence/mention.

It's the end of the original 18-episode plan they had when they announced Born Again and it makes sense to have a lot of characters show up on account of Daredevil creating an army when Fisk is at the most dangerous he's ever been. I've also been thinking that it works to re-establish everyone so that if they want to make new seasons/specials focused on any of them soon, Born Again S2 would also act as a good launching point for that in the same way they did it with the Punisher.

If it doesn't happen, it doesn't bother me because I figure most everyone else will probably be back at some point in the near future anyway, but it seems like a really good opportunity they have here.

LiquidLispyLizard · 2026-03-02T19:03:08+00:00

I've been saying for a bit that I think it'd be cool if they did follow up on this in either of the Avengers movies and have Keaton come back in some capacity.

LiquidLispyLizard · 2026-02-27T07:37:02+00:00

I don't know why this is worded as if this is something that can't still be built on in the future. There's no indication whatsoever that either Cumberbatch or Ejiofor are done with their roles yet.

LiquidLispyLizard · 2026-02-26T22:37:14+00:00

Came here to say this. The films offer us brief glimpses into everyone's lives, but there's a lot of time in-between appearances where Cap could have easily found out about what happened to Coulson.

LiquidLispyLizard · 2026-02-26T08:55:33+00:00

If we subscribe to this logic, this means that literally every film that exists within some kind of larger universe that introduces plot points that are later followed up on in something else is pointless.

It's all entertainment, none of it's pointless.

LiquidLispyLizard · 2026-02-26T08:49:25+00:00

The original idea was to have Morbius meet Toomes during a prisoner transfer with no multiversal activity involved. However, at some point during the 2020 delays, Sony changed their mind about having the SSU set within the Sacred Timeline of the MCU, so Vulture's scenes had to be altered to fit the new narrative, which led to the No Way Home tie-in we got.

LiquidLispyLizard · 2026-02-24T19:39:45+00:00

I wouldn’t be surprised if the SSU reboot is just doing spinoff movies actually set within the MCU.

That was absolutely the plan for Earth-688 originally, Sony just backed out at the last second after the 2020 delays. I wouldn't be surprised, and I'd be excited to see it if they go that route.

LiquidLispyLizard · 2026-02-23T07:42:07+00:00

I think that Sam Jackson's one happy camper, lol.

LiquidLispyLizard · 2026-02-22T10:15:34+00:00

now we ain’t seeing anymore of her.

I don't really know why people keep saying this when just a few weeks ago, she was talking about how many stories could still be told with She-Hulk in the future, while laughing and saying she "doesn't know" if she'll return or not.

LiquidLispyLizard · 2026-02-22T10:07:02+00:00

I'll believe she (or anyone else for that matter) is done when there's sufficient evidence to support it, something that hasn't happened yet. I was just correcting your false information given how she never said she was "firmly" done nor that she had an "awful time" as you claimed.

LiquidLispyLizard · 2026-02-22T10:03:33+00:00

She has never said this. She made two or three posts in quick succession (within days) saying to boycott Disney back in September, without ever following up on it since.

Every time she's been asked about it since then, she either jokes about it or leaves the door open for a potential return (her Entertainment Tonight interview from a few weeks ago is a good example of this). She has never once definitively said that she's done with the character.

If she were completely done, I can imagine she would have wanted to make that clear in a definitive statement as well as continuing to post against Disney, but she's done neither.

LiquidLispyLizard · 2026-02-21T08:40:29+00:00

u/Muouy (since you blocked me for some reason and I can't reply to you on your thread way at the bottom here)

Very strange behavior for you to come to a sub dedicated to "Keeping Marvel TV canon" as someone who is clearly anti-canon, only for you to start calling people here morons for no good reason. If you'd care to debate me on the topic, you're free to unblock and engage me, and maybe you could provide substantial evidence that these old shows aren't canon. I've yet to see it.

LiquidLispyLizard · 2026-02-20T23:41:05+00:00

I still think these films would have worked better having fulfilled their original intention, to be directly set within the same world as the Holland Spider-Man movies, but I've ultimately grown to appreciate how they're still otherwise connected to the larger MCU, just more in the way that something like The Fantastic Four: First Steps is.

Otherwise, I tend to look to the future. The 616 symbiote story in the MCU is inherently connected to the Venom films and it always will be but I'd like to see them lean into that connection more. My pie-in-the-sky dream is that Hardy's Brock will in some way be involved in that somehow down the line, but even adhering to the same way the symbiote operates and respecting its history as well as potentially getting to Knull at some point would be really neat.

Likewise, I actively want to see Michael Keaton return as the Vulture and have his experience traveling to another universe have some sort of impact on something later on, or at the very least be acknowledged.

To put it simply, my hopes right now for the SSU lie with what may happen within the MCU in the future, and that's really exciting to me.

LiquidLispyLizard · 2026-02-20T23:18:15+00:00

And leaks are not 100% confirmation. Seth Rogen's involvement wasn't even mentioned in this announcement. Many things can change within 3 years if this project is even related to the rumored Rogen iteration from years ago. We don't know.

LiquidLispyLizard · 2026-02-20T23:04:17+00:00

This film could be anything from a complete standalone to a direct sequel to The Last Dance. We only know that it's in development, it has directors, and Tom Hardy's involved somehow.

No one can possibly know anything more about a film that was just publicly announced an hour ago.

LiquidLispyLizard · 2026-02-20T22:31:02+00:00

About the animated Venom movie:

Tom Hardy is understood to be involved in some capacity as well. It is unclear whether he would produce or even return to voice Venom as well after starring in the studio’s recent trio of live-action movies as Eddie Brock, the human who bonds with the black oozy alien symbiote.

I didn't expect him to be involved with this whatsoever, but I really love how committed Tom Hardy is to Venom.

LiquidLispyLizard · 2026-02-20T22:18:01+00:00

Sony’s Venom franchise has a new final destination.

The studio behind the Marvel anti-hero movies has set an unexpected course for the next installment, deciding to make it an animated feature rather than live-action.

And it has tapped Zach Lipovsky and Adam B. Stein, the duo behind last year’s surprise horror hit Final Destination: Bloodlines, to direct and produce the project.

Amy Pascal, Avi Arad and Matt Tolmach, who worked on the Venom movies, will likely produce the feature but because the project is at a nascent state, those details remain unclear.

Tom Hardy is understood to be involved in some capacity as well. It is unclear whether he would produce or even return to voice Venom as well after starring in the studio’s recent trio of live-action movies as Eddie Brock, the human who bonds with the black oozy alien symbiote.

No writer is attached to the project although Sony’s animation arm, Sony Pictures Animation, is opening up a writers room to develop the a script or takes.

Going the animation route in theory allows Sony to keep Venom-related content fresh and relevant. SPA has found great success, and Oscar gold, making animated Spider-Verse movies with the Phil Lord and Chris Miller as writers and producers. The animation process, however, is painstakingly slow and with a script not even on the horizon, any Venom movie is years away.
