Stranger Things Star Hints Everyone Is Wrong About New Marvel Character

Since it was announced that Sadie Sink will be playing a character in it Spider-Man: A Brand New Dayfans have been speculating that she might play a popular red Marvel character like Firestar or Jean Grey. This is up to her, of course Strange things The famous red-haired character. However, in a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, she implied that everyone’s speculation might be wrong for a simple reason: “A lot of people forget that hair color can change.”

Red-haired redemption

It’s a fairly obvious statement, of course, but it’s likely to blow up many of the most popular theories about who Sink might be playing. When everyone was assuming that her character would be a redhead, it was easy to assume that it could be someone like Rachel Cole Alves, who is a friend of the Punisher, himself one of the character’s big additions to Spider-Man: A Brand New Day. But if we take Sinek’s comment about hair color at face value, fan theorists should revise their theories because it could be played out literally. any A young woman in the Marvel Comics extended universe.

The only other real evidence we have is the recent confirmation that the mysterious Sink character will be making a reappearance Avengers: Secret Warsthe stunning film that promises to reset the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This means she won’t be a one-time hero or villain or even a random love rival. Instead, she must play someone who has some connection to Spider-Man and is also important enough to appear again in Marvel’s biggest and most ambitious production to date.

Good guys love bad girls

There’s always a chance you’ll be playing a non-red-haired character who’s important to Spider-Man lore, including Black Cat. This would give MCU Spidey a Catwoman-type character who can be both a hero and a villain, sometimes at the same time. It would also give Peter Parker a new love interest, something that could be in the near future after Doctor Strange’s spell made everyone forget who Peter was, effectively destroying all of his past relationships.

There are other notable Spidey villains that Sadie Sink can play, including Silver Sable. I personally would love to see her play Spider-Gwen, and it’s not as crazy as you might think: There has been long-standing speculation from fans that Liza Colón-Zayas will play Miles Morales’ mother and that he might appear in the film. If so, it may not be possible for Cenk to bring Miles a teammate to that degree In the spider verse Spider-Gwen’s live-action playmate.

Of course, some fans have a simpler, more pessimistic theory: It’s only because of Sadie Sink He said That “hair color can change” does not mean that it has changed. In other words, she could still be playing an iconic Red character like Jean Grey, and Marvel simply encouraged her to make statements like this in interviews to get rid of the fandom. Considering she’s rocking red hair in a leaked set photo, it seems likely that her character (whoever that may be) will indeed be a redhead.

We left in red

That doesn’t mean it will be familiar Redhead, anyway. Some fans interpreted her comments to Entertainment Weekly to mean that the comic character’s hair color might change… for example, just because a character is blonde or brunette in the comics doesn’t mean she can’t be a redhead in the MCU. A light example of this can be seen in Thunderboltswhere La Contessa Valentina Allegra de Fontaine has a purple streak in her hair instead of a white one because actor Julia Louis-Dreyfus didn’t like the character’s original look in the comics.

Obviously we won’t know for sure who Sadie Sink is playing until we get really close to her Spider-Man: A Brand New DayIts release date, currently scheduled for July 31, 2026. Whatever its game, it will appear again in Avengers: Secret WarsWhich suggests they have a major role to play in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This movie is going to be very crowded, and winning over a skeptical MCU fanbase might be very difficult… though, I think the movie Strange things The star will have no problem getting up that hill.
