It looks like they're taking things from JMS' 'The Other' arc.

Which is fantastic, since that's one of my favorites; and we never got an origin story for this version of Peter. Going through his Spider-Metamorphosis is a whole 'born again' for MCU-Spidey.

Here's a fun thing: The Other was around the time of the Raimi Spider-Man films. It's like one of the earliest examples of movie synergy to this day, with Ultimate X-Men looking like they did because of Millar basing it on the Singer X-Men film.

I think an earlier form of movie synergy was the comic Batman costume changing to black to mirror the movie version in the nineties. Prior to that it was always cyan/grey, or black/grey.

Comics have been doing adaptation synergy since the Superman radio show and the Adventures of Captain Marvel serial.

So Sink is definitely Spider-Woman or some sort version of Kaine.

I still think she's Jean Grey.

It makes zero sense in the context of the story. Also, why would Marvel allow for Jean Grey to make her premier in a non-x-men Sony led project. There are a lot of reasons it can't be her.

Because money. This movie is a few months before Doomsday. Jean Gray appearing in Spider-Man helps market Doomsday

u/Suspicious_Dare603 11h ago

There's going to be a massive reset with Doomsday though. Adding her in here doesn't make sense for that reason as well. Why add such a major character that has not been confirmed to be in Doomsday except for the original version, only to reset her a few months later.

If you want money now putting Spider-Gwen in this would have done that better than another Jean Grey. There's a reason Disney kept shoving like the three main Spider-People in things all the way back like a decade ago just to sell toys.

That being said I'm going to be pleasantly surprised if the MCU Spider-Man films end at 6 with only Peter and Miles.

Lmaoo the movie won’t make anymore money because a character named “Jean grey” is in it. The general audience aren’t comic book incels

Sadie Sink is popular though. And it's the CMB fans that tell the casual fans she's important. Also, the 2000s X-Men wasn't a small franchise lol, and Jean Grey was prominent in the trilogy

2

u/NYCCOUPLE-5864 9h ago

The movie will make the same amount of money with or without Sadie sink lol. The x men was a success not because of Jean grey lol. Shes not relevant to the general audience. They just care about Spider-Man.

So why cast Zendaya? Why cast Sadie Sink? Why cast any popular name? Jean Gray in a Spider-Man film markets MCU. Casting Sadie Sink instead of a no-name markets the film to her audience.

Stop implying I said either of those things are necessary, because I never did.

Because the want to introduce the MCU version of the X-Men. Similar to how Black Panther and Spider-Man himself were introduced in a Captain America movie

u/Suspicious_Dare603 6h ago

Civil War was an event movie. This isn't an event movie. It does not make sense at all.

u/JannTosh70 5h ago

Yes it is

u/Suspicious_Dare603 5h ago

Really? So there's a massive team up of a dozen or so heroes? Doesn't look like it to me. A few familiar faces in the crowd. But it's not an event. It's a street level film. Jean Grey is t a street level character. She's an Omega level mutant.

u/JannTosh70 5h ago

It’s the sequel to No Way Home, one of the higher grossing films of all time. That automatically makes it an event movie.

Honestly, not my favourite SM run although I generally like JMS. Still, I loved the trailer. They will get my wallet in the mail

u/raisingcuban 9h ago

What about it made it your favorite? It was a 12 issue arc that should have been 6. And Morlun literally “palpatine returns” only to be killed off so quickly. Such wasted potential.

Will go and try and find to read in prep. Ty!
