00:00Something bad was going to happen, and the only way to stop it was to make everyone forget about me.
00:05Welcome to WatchMojo, and today we're looking at Easter eggs and small details you might have missed in the first
00:10trailer for Spider-Man Brand New Day.
00:18Classic Comic Book Covers
00:20After the previous trilogy took the titular character in a slightly different direction, the Brand New Day trailer finds Peter
00:26Parker going back to basics.
00:27Peter is now alone, maintaining a secret identity and donning a stripped-down Spidey suit without any Stark tech.
00:34This return to classic Spider-Man is also reflected in multiple frames that pay homage to familiar comic book covers.
00:46One shot features Spider-Man swinging through New York, rescuing a citizen.
00:50This is a recreation of Amazing Fantasy No. 15, which marked Spider-Man's first comic appearance.
00:56Another shot where Spidey faces off against Tarantula is lifted from The Amazing Spider-Man No. 134.
01:03It's a sign that Brand New Day will be grounded in earlier comics when Peter was more of a friendly
01:07neighborhood Spider-Man.
01:09Rebirth
01:14Peter still has his letter.
01:16No Way Home ended with everyone forgetting that Peter is Spider-Man, including MJ and Ned.
01:21Peter initially plans to remind them, writing down everything he wants to tell his friends in person.
01:27Hi, my name is Peter Parker, and you don't know me, but you...
01:33Okay, come on.
01:37Hard to believe.
01:40While Peter reintroduces himself to MJ, he can't bring himself to read the message, feeling she and Ned would be
01:46better off not knowing.
01:47Is there anything else?
02:02No.
02:04As we see in the Brand New Day trailer, Peter still has the note, meaning he isn't ready to let
02:09go completely.
02:10Through Peter's narration, we're given more insight into what he wants to say.
02:14That the fate of the multiverse depended on Peter Parker being forgotten.
02:18While Peter is slowly reconnecting with his friends, he struggles to say the words that were much easier to put
02:24on paper.
02:24I'm MJ.
02:25I'm just a neighbor from across the hall.
02:28Friendly neighbor.
02:29MJ's new boyfriend.
02:31Even if Peter tells MJ, it appears she's already moving on.
02:35The trailer sees MJ getting close to another potential boyfriend.
02:39And sometimes Spider-Man has to do the hard thing, even if it breaks Peter Parker's heart.
02:45While it's unclear who MJ's new love interest is, he's played by Iman Esfandi, best known as the live-action
02:52Ezra Bridger in the Ahsoka series.
02:55Ezra?
02:59Hi, Hera.
03:02Hello?
03:03One theory suggests he could be Paul Rabin, who made his comic debut in 2022.
03:09Paul becomes a serious love interest for MJ, together raising two children.
03:14It's ultimately revealed that Paul is the son of Emissary, one of Spider-Man's foes.
03:19This only intensifies his rivalry with Peter.
03:22Being one of the most disliked modern Spider-Man characters, Paul might be a controversial choice.
03:27But it's not like things work out for him and MJ in the comics.
03:31Keith David's voiceover.
03:33Keith David has one of the most distinct voices on the planet, so we are sure you immediately recognized his
03:39voice in the trailer.
03:40What remains vague is who exactly David is playing.
03:43David actually has a history with this franchise, voicing Agent Mosley in the short-lived Spider-Man The New Animated
03:49Series.
03:50You gonna try to tell me this isn't the phone you used to call in that tip about Kingpin?
03:54Yeah.
03:56Here's the guy you know.
03:57He also voiced Big Man, later revealed to be Tombstone, in the pilot for The Spectacular Spider-Man.
04:03Although Kevin Michael Richardson subsequently took over the role.
04:06This is a live feed.
04:08Then I've seen enough.
04:10Tombstone is in Brand New Day, but Marvin Jones III is playing him.
04:15Whether he's playing a new mentor or enemy, David's narration unpacks the life cycles of spiders, hinting at the changes
04:21Peter will undergo that may result in a rebirth.
04:24It amounts to a kind of...
04:34Rebirth.
04:35A suited-up scorpion.
04:36Michael Mando made his MCU debut in Spider-Man Homecoming as Mac Gargan.
04:41Although he had yet to adopt his supervillain alias Scorpion, the scar across his eye hinted at what waited on
04:48the horizon.
04:48A little spider friend?
04:50I've got some boys on the outside who'd love to meet him.
04:54You know, take a picture, slice his throat, put his head in the dryer.
04:58It's been several years since we last saw Gargan, who tried to get Adrian Toomes to reveal Spider-Man's identity.
05:04Toomes kept Peter's secret, but that doesn't mean Gargan is giving up on revenge.
05:08If I knew who he was, he'd already be dead.
05:14The Brand New Day trailer sees Gargan finally suited up in a comic book-accurate scorpion costume, telling Spider-Man
05:21not to get in his way.
05:23Stay out of my way.
05:27The trailer reveals other villains that Spidey will clash with, including Boomerang.
05:32It's also been rumored that Tramiel Tillman might be X-Men villain William Metzger, or Bill as the trailer's subtitles
05:38identify him.
05:40The Hand.
05:41Between Wilson Fisk appearing in the Hawkeye miniseries and Matt Murdock making a cameo in No Way Home,
05:46it was officially confirmed that the Daredevil series is part of the MCU canon.
06:02That means The Hand also exists in this universe, with Brand New Day bringing the secret society to the big
06:08screen.
06:09We see the red-clad ninjas going up against Spider-Man on two occasions in the trailer.
06:14First, they face off in what appears to be a prison.
06:22Another shot finds them flying towards Spider-Man mid-air against a New York backdrop.
06:26Is Spider-Man their main target, or could Peter be protecting the one they were sent to assassinate?
06:32Either way, Peter may need backup.
06:34Perhaps from Daredevil or Elektra?
06:36I came here for Fisk.
06:39Guess I'll have to settle for you.
06:46I show you respect.
06:49You would be wise to return the courtesy.
06:52Does the Hulk remember Spider-Man?
06:54As Peter's DNA mutates, he seeks help from Dr. Bruce Banner, now working as a professor.
07:00What did you say your name was?
07:04If DNA is mutating, it would be enormously dangerous.
07:09Bruce doesn't remember who Peter is, but does the Hulk?
07:13Although we didn't see them properly introduced, Peter and Bruce fought alongside each other in Avengers Endgame.
07:18They also attended Tony Stark's funeral.
07:21So it wouldn't be a stretch to say that Bruce learned Peter's secret.
07:30While Dr. Strange's spell would have wiped Bruce's memory, it might not have extended to the Hulk.
07:36Bruce can be spotted wearing his Hulk inhibitor device, which allows him to stay in human form.
07:42Even as Smart Hulk, Bruce has managed to keep his anger in check.
07:46If he were to lose control again, though, would his Hulk side remember what Bruce doesn't?
07:51Because, you know, I made this little device, which keeps me in human form.
07:55That was the longest answer to what have you been up to I've ever heard.
07:58You asked me.
08:00Why Spider-Man is Getting the Key to the City
08:02Brand New Day should hit theaters not long after Daredevil Born Again wraps up its second season.
08:07As of writing, we have yet to see any episodes from season two,
08:11although this trailer suggests how that series might lead into Brand New Day.
08:15Jon Bernthal is finally bringing Frank Castle to the silver screen, at odds with Spider-Man.
08:24Go home!
08:26Season one ended with Punisher escaping incarceration, as Mayor Wilson Fisk declared martial law.
08:40Vigilantes were also outlawed in New York,
08:43which likely won't stick since the trailer sees Spider-Man receiving the key to the city.
08:47The one presenting the key is apparently Sheila Rivera.
08:50Fisk's campaign director.
08:52Perhaps Spider-Man will play a role in removing Fisk from power,
08:56allowing Sheila to take over as mayor.
08:58And the only way to stop it was to make everyone forget about me.
09:02Is that Sadie Sink's character?
09:04Of all the undisclosed roles in Brand New Day,
09:07Sadie Sink of Stranger Things fame remains the biggest question mark.
09:11Sink doesn't appear in the trailer.
09:13Or does she?
09:14There is at least one character whose face is being concealed.
09:17In one shot, a character in green is seen strapped into a chair,
09:21flinching and possibly triggering an explosion.
09:24Although that just might be how the trailer is edited.
09:27Spiders have three life cycles.
09:31Another shot centers on a hooded figure lifting their arms,
09:34as Tillman's character talks about a danger that can't be controlled or seen.
09:37We are faced with a danger that we can't control.
09:41One we can't even see.
09:43It's been speculated that Tillman is talking about mutants,
09:46which would feed into the theory that Sink is playing Jean Grey.
09:50Or maybe Sink's natural hair color is a red herring?
09:55Hi.
10:04Before we continue, check out this single from Sound Mojo's audio,
10:08Songs from Iran, reimagining Persian melodies as modern rock, metal, and pop songs.
10:13Check out the full track and album below.
10:30The Man-Spider arc.
10:32Since No Way Home ended with Eddie Brock leaving part of his Venom symbiote behind,
10:36some assumed that the next film would tackle the alien costume saga.
10:40What is happening?
10:40No!
10:41No, we just got here!
10:42No, not again!
10:48And there he goes.
10:50Without paying the bill, no tips, nothing.
10:54While Brand New Day doesn't appear to be revisiting that storyline,
10:57it may adapt a similar one.
10:59Throughout the trailer, Peter adjusts to several changes,
11:02seemingly entering a cocoon state with organic webbing.
11:05Based on the narration, Peter is in the middle of a new life cycle
11:09that may ultimately see him emerge as Man-Spider.
11:12When between cycles, it can leave the spider vulnerable to threats.
11:18This idea of a mutated Spider-Man would most notably be explored
11:22in the 90s animated series.
11:24Man-Spider's presence here would also indicate
11:27that the mutants are about to become more prominent in the MCU,
11:30especially with several returning in Doomsday.
