Kevin Feige on Black Panther 3, X-Men, and Seeing Spider-Man: Brand New Day For the 1st Time

While San Diego Comic-Con is arguably one of Marvel Studios' wildest times of the year, these creatives will have little time to slow down with Spider-Man: Brand New Day swinging its way into theaters on July 31st. The fourth Sony feature in Tom Holland’s Spidey saga is the darkest chapter yet, following the events of Spider-Man: No Way Home, and it’s introducing a very mysterious new character on top of addressing the fallout of Peter Parker’s painful sacrifice. To discuss the MCU’s present and future, producer and Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige and Pascal Pictures producer Amy Pascal chat with Collider’s Steven Weintraub while doing press ahead of SDCC. In the movie, Peter struggles to come to terms with MJ (Zendaya), Ned (Jacob Batalon), and everyone he’s ever known and loved, completely forgetting his existence. He’s still Spider-Man, and he still has crime-fighting to do, but the devastation has triggered an unpredictable mutation in his transformation, and this major setback couldn’t have come at a worse time. A very powerful threat to the city puts everyone, including his loved ones, in danger, and this villain appears to be completely invisible. Brand New Day introduces Stranger Things star Sadie Sink to the MCU and also features Jon Bernthal as Frank Castle/Punisher and Mark Ruffalo as Bruce Banner/The Hulk. Before Brand New Day hits theaters, check out this conversation with Feige and Pascal, where the two discuss Sony and Marvel’s 10-year relationship after first coming together for Spider-Man: Homecoming. They discuss how director Destin Daniel Cretton managed to do something with Brand New Day that’s never been done before, and how he pays very specific homage to the Spider-Man comics throughout the movie. They also talk about why they chose to bring the Punisher and the Hulk in, their reaction to fan theories, and why Sink’s role is so confidential. Plus, Feige and Pascal comment on returning to Hall H at Comic-Con later this week, when Black Panther 3 will begin filming, and pinpoint where Brand New Day falls on the MCU timeline. #spidermanbrandnewday #spiderman #kevinfeige #amypascal #TomHolland For interviews, movie reviews, and more visit https://collider.com FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL   / collider     / collider     / collider
