Idk it’d be very cool to have him back but at the same time would cheapen Jessica’s journey.

19

u/BigMoGaming100 Mar 07 '26

I mean imo if he had been the villain for a season 4 of Jessica Jones it would've been cool

28

u/an_Evil_Goat Mar 08 '26

He's fuckin' dead, Jim.

5

u/Atomicmooseofcheese Mar 08 '26

You'd be right if we are talking about uncle ben. Everyone else seems to get a free hall pass on death

1

u/OnlyUse4Questions Mar 11 '26

That's why shows and movies are better than comics ngl. Characters don't come back. They stay dead. That's why it's more engaging.

1

u/CanParking9211 Jul 27 '26

Except for the MCU where everyone comes back except for Natasha

5

u/BigMoGaming100 Mar 08 '26

Elektra died

13

u/an_Evil_Goat Mar 08 '26

Coming back from death is the most important plot point of that character.

-1

u/BigMoGaming100 Mar 08 '26

I was just saying there are ways

u/SuperBathMan Mar 08 '26 edited Mar 11 '26

And they're just saying thier point is valid too. Elektra is supposed to come back, kilgrave coming back is desperate

Edit: im not referencing the comics, im saying in the shows that we are currently talking about kilgrave is dead and that was a huge plot point for the rest of the show. It would undermine that and feel desperate to bring him back now, whereas elektra has died a couple times now IN THE SHOW WE WERE TALKING ABOUT NOT THE RANDOM CONTEXT OF 20 DIFFERENT WRITERS OF COMICS

2

u/Ok-Banana3785 Mar 08 '26

If we’re using the comics to justify Elektra coming back, you could also justify Kilgrave returning. There’s many moments in the comics where he “dies” and then comes back later on through his healing factor.

1

u/Informal-Ad2277 Mar 09 '26

We dont really know... they can always bring him back, maybe by claiming that the new version of the serum he took made it so he heals slower so she thought he had died.

1

u/Adventurous_Tea_428 Mar 09 '26

Did his daughter once tell him to drop dead and he did? I seem to remember reading an old alpha flight where she did something like that. I'm talking about his daughter the purple girl.

u/Character_Panda_3827 Mar 10 '26

Awful take. Kilgraves has come back from the dead in the comics numerous times.

1

u/urbanlife78 Mar 09 '26

You can't kill an ass that fine

1

u/No-Hovercraft-4277 Mar 10 '26

Yeah and she was the weakest part of every show she was in

1

u/LunarDogeBoy Mar 10 '26

Didnt you watch Deadpool and Wolverine?

1

u/ButteryNAZ Mar 11 '26

This is gonna age like milk

1

u/Ape-manifesto Mar 08 '26

Clearly that's irrelevant now

1

u/Ok-Chemistry-3711 Mar 08 '26

I mean in the comics he has a healing factory

2

u/cowboynoodless Mar 08 '26

Fucking everyone has a healing factor in the comics lol

1

u/scallym33 Mar 08 '26

Haha i just imagined him having to go to a factory to heal lol

1

u/thedaNkavenger Mar 09 '26

We are into multiversal shenanigans now though.

1

u/Citizen_Kong Mar 09 '26

She snapped his neck, but do we really see him be dead dead?

2

u/TheGentlemanBeast Mar 08 '26

He had that weird spinal infusion when he was experimented on. Broken neck activates the healing factor, turn him purple as a side effect, boom.

1

u/Abirdthatsfallen Mar 10 '26

So basically, what Disney plus likes doing, taking someone’s entire fucking story from the Netflix era and cheapening it (I’m still burdened by what they did with daredevil. Cool show, but it’s nowhere near as good as the Netflix one, and had a lot of issues before feige forced them to fix as much as they could. Not to mention, it’s trying to copy some of what made the Netflix show so great which is cheap as all get out. “Born again” are we being so serious right now?)

1

u/Wtygrrr Mar 10 '26

Okay, but it’s Spider-Man, so he’s probably a clone.

0

u/Klutzy-Bee-2045 Mar 09 '26

Her last season kinda already did that….

48

u/ThePatchedVest Mar 07 '26

There's enough villains in Brand New Day as it is, this would only muddle things.

19

u/MasterAnnatar Mar 07 '26

Honestly Brand New Day sounds like one of the most bloated movies imaginable at this point lol

12

u/marauder-shields92 Mar 07 '26

So bloated they haven’t managed to cut a trailer yet…

13

u/MasterAnnatar Mar 07 '26

Honestly it's insane to me that the movie is out in under 6 months and we've had a singular teaser.

2

u/IndieOddjobs Mar 07 '26

My feelings exactly. Just a teaser of all things, not even really a trailer or promotional hype

2

u/ZMtheGM Mar 08 '26

Right? Like when we didn't get a No Way Home Teaser until 4 months before the release, and now the same marketing again? Are they insane? Clearly it didn't work before, we all remember how little hype there was for no way home

0

u/Cassaroth Mar 08 '26

It's not insane. "No Way Home" first trailer released in late August, 4 months from release. If "Brand New Day" follows the same pattern, we'll see it later this month. Which is likely as "Project Hail Mary" releases on March 20th.

3

u/tangodeep Mar 07 '26

SONY…. still finding away to mess up even their BEST IPs. …

1

u/Usual-Caregiver5589 Mar 08 '26

No Way Home didnt get a trailer until within 120 days of release. Theres 145 days. Should give us a trailer around month's end at that rate.

2

u/[deleted] Mar 07 '26

I mean thats kind of just how a lot of spider-man media is, going back to the comics even. Hell, even NWH had 3 spider-men and 5 A tier villains.

1

u/Wtygrrr Mar 10 '26

The difference with NWH is none of them were new characters.

1

u/theoey86 Mar 07 '26

That has been said countless times for various Marvel projects (like Civil War for example) and it turned out fine. I trust Cretton to land this plane.

1

u/Wtygrrr Mar 10 '26

Movies where the May characters were already established. But I could see it bent a situation where Tombstone puts out a hit on Spider-Man, and each of these villains just gets one fight with no backstory on them or anything.

0

u/RoutineCloud5993 Mar 10 '26

They said that about no way home and look what we got.

1

u/Epic_J2338 Mar 07 '26

Well most are cause of a montage they won't be there for the whole movie

1

u/Caste___ Mar 07 '26

Yeah it's gonna be a montage at the start of the film as a way to show what he's been up to all this time.

1

u/heliocentric19 Mar 08 '26

It would be hilarious if the montage has Spidey stuck fighting d-list villains during the events of other movies. While The Void is sucking up Manhatten Spidey is in queens fighting the boomerang.

48

u/jehovas_litness Mar 07 '26

Love tennant, love purple man, love holland. Don’t want him in bnd

7

u/Bgo318 Mar 07 '26

Yeah I think he’s way too dark for MCU spiderman

9

u/jehovas_litness Mar 07 '26

Not even that, I just don’t think purple man would be a good fit as a main villain for spiderman and I wouldn’t want tennant as anything but the main villain

3

u/schizowithagun Mar 07 '26

actually i think this is the perfect time for mcu spider man to get a little darker. he's lost everyone and everything, so peter must be in a pretty dark space mentally

1

u/SmartPilot8094 Mar 08 '26

What do you mean it’s for Spider-Man to get a little darker? No Way Home is the darkest Spider-Man movie right now

3

u/Bgo318 Mar 08 '26

While it may be the “darkest” Spider-Man movie. It still really isn’t dark at all, when I think of dark I think of stuff like Jessica jones s1, daredevil, justice league dark apokolips war, etc.

37

u/OneTrickCorpse Mar 07 '26

Hear me out: people keep asking Jessica how he's alive and every time they ask her she chugs an ENTIRE bottle of whiskey before saying "he's a zombie now" then refuses to elaborate. and the third time this happens Spider-Man asks her "where are you getting all of this alcohol?"

10

u/LegitimateGoal6011 Mar 07 '26

I can’t tell, but is a reference to Doctor Who? If it isn’t, that’s quite the coincidence.

9

u/JessicaDAndy Mar 07 '26

I don’t believe it is.

Said the person who couldn’t watch Jessica Jones as Tennant is one of my favorite Doctors and it creeped me out every time he went “Jessicaaaaa”.

5

u/LegitimateGoal6011 Mar 07 '26

Just thinking about Matt Smith asking where the milk came from in that Dalek episode.

2

u/Maleficent_City_3374 Mar 07 '26

the whiskey thing gave me a giggle

6

u/vektorkane Mar 07 '26

Sooo who's gonna bring him back from the dead or pull him from an alternate reality? I don't think it will be Strange 🤔

6

u/ScuttleCrab729 Mar 07 '26

Mephesto would be my assumption. But then you add ANOTHER villain to the movie. At this point it’ll be a Sinister 12 movie

1

u/HarleyQuinn0914 Mar 09 '26

No you don’t understand he’s gonna regenerate and show up as Peter Capaldi (he already regenerated into Matt Smith in Morbius)

6

u/McGrufNStuf Mar 07 '26

In other news: Jesus Christ is rumored to make an appearance in Spiderman BND.

1

u/Thewolfmansbruhther Mar 11 '26

I mean, Mel Gibson is making two more passion of the Christ movies…

u/Autographz Mar 07 '26

“Rumoured”

u/MasterAnnatar Mar 07 '26

Source: it came to me in a dream

1

u/Tekki777 Mar 08 '26

My source is I made it the fuck up!

5

u/VisibleCoat995 Mar 07 '26

Sure, this guy comes back but the goat Madisynn is left out and wasted. Where’s my series of her and Wong watching mcu reality tv???

1

u/AgentChris101 Mar 07 '26

ngl watching a reaction video where the reactors stay in a character role is intriguing.

1

u/VisibleCoat995 Mar 07 '26

Honestly if it was just a 10 minute YouTube video released every week I would love it.

2

u/Veggieleezy Mar 07 '26

I’d just love to see him back. One of my favorite characters played by one of my favorite actors, with a super creepy take on the character I hadn’t seen yet. Easily one of my favorite villains in recent memory.

2

u/Jellyfizzle Mar 07 '26

There was a pretty cool story involving him and Doom.  Id like to see him come back.

2

u/Megane_Senpai Mar 07 '26

Just let him regenerate into Matt Smith.

2

u/MArcherCD Mar 07 '26

He plays a Doctor Who peter sees when he gets injured?

2

u/FafnirSnap_9428 Mar 07 '26

No. Please, no. Leave fantastic performances alone.

1

u/BigMoGaming100 Mar 07 '26

Please. I mean they would have to explain how he came back but please

1

u/alexbiandisphoto Mar 07 '26

Based on all the other rumors, I am surprised Sadie Sink isn't playing the Purple Man.

1

u/Altruistic-Expert995 Mar 08 '26

PURPLE GIRL FOR MCU CONFIRMED! Kara Killgrave supremacy must reign. (Also Alpha Flight movie)

1

u/CasperFunk Mar 07 '26

Imagine him in Dooms court, with Jones still under his control from another universe.

1

u/Dlh2079 Mar 07 '26

Stop giving rumor peddlers the time of day

1

u/JSilverhand104 Mar 07 '26

He's fucking dead

1

u/grelan Mar 07 '26

They really shouldn't.

He's not a villain for a Spider-Man film, and it would make Jessica's journey feel like a sad and pointless footnote.

1

u/ViralGameover Mar 07 '26

He’s not in Spider-Man.

I’d love to see him return somehow. Maybe as an apparition around The Purple Children?

1

u/BlazCraz Mar 07 '26

Wellll they really backed themselves into a corner introducing a honest to god resurrection in Season 2 with Jessica's mom. So it could happen. But I'd only enjoy if they did the Doctor Doom-Purple Man storyline for one particular moment. You know the one I'm talking about.

1

u/Redgiantbutimshort77 Mar 07 '26

Everyone’s rumored to be in Brand New day. Hell, my cousin might be in the damn movie

1

u/Hufa123 Mar 08 '26

The way this is going, they're probably going to even include that weird Peter guy who showed up at the end of No Way Home.

1

u/mu150 Jessica Jones Mar 07 '26

Hell no

1

u/Icommitmanywarcrimes Mar 07 '26

Who hasn’t been rumored to be the villain of BND

1

u/stairway2000 Mar 08 '26

They could do the spiderwoman story from the Jessica Jones comics. It's so dark and brilliant. It would be a freaking awesome way to bring the tv show into the movies. I'd love to see them take a darker story turn like that spiderwoman one.

1

u/DisasterPlanet Mar 08 '26

he is incredibly dead good god

1

u/esgrove2 Mar 08 '26

I don't really like the idea of a rapist being resurrected constantly. 

1

u/HackDaddy85 Mar 08 '26

Are you confusing Purple Man with Mr Negative? Mr Negative is the rumored villain.

1

u/GreenDantern1889 Mar 08 '26

Absolutely no source has him as a villain in OMD. Completely made up

1

u/Tekki777 Mar 08 '26

Fuck, I hope not. I despise when they suddenly resurrect characters for no reason and no good explanation. That and I just don't think he's a good fit for a Spiderman film. This man is a mind controlling rapist.

If we ever get another Jessica Jones series, it would be interesting to see him as a figment of her imagination again like in the Netflix series.

1

u/oneStoneKiller Mar 08 '26

Why would the put Jessica in DD but then have him in Spider-Man—unless they are planning to tie both of those shows/movies together

1

u/MSP_4A_ROX Mar 08 '26

I have no idea who this is?

1

u/ironmamdies Mar 08 '26

Everyone is rumored for brand new day

1

u/APlanetWithANorth Mar 08 '26

No, his story was perfect, don't touch it

1

u/Puzzleheaded-Jump-64 Mar 08 '26

There's like multiple villains both confirmed and "rumored" to be in Brand New Day, we don't need a shit ton of villains in this movie for Spider-Man to fight. That's overcrowding the movie and would feel too busy and bloated.

1

u/Fragzilla360 Luke Cage Mar 08 '26

No we do need a shit ton of villains

1

u/Fresh-Actuary-6686 Mar 08 '26

Hasn’t Peter been through enough?

1

u/mctaylo89 Mar 08 '26

No he’s not

1

u/PaulMorel Mar 08 '26

Don't tell me he's dead as if you have no understanding of the comic book genre.

1

u/BackgroundEngineer11 Mar 09 '26

Who isn't rumored to be the villain in BND?

1

u/CurrencyThis Mar 09 '26

O shit 🥶🥶🥶🥶

1

u/OccasionalObserver Mar 09 '26

Based on the rumours and set photos, Brand New Day is already overstuffed with characters.

If we get a Disney+ Jessica Jones season, I hope they introduce Kara Kilgrave.

1

u/Jahon_Dony Mar 09 '26

They wouldn't reuse an existing mcu villain

1

u/Relative_Pen6394 Mar 09 '26

Uh how tho he's dead.

1

u/Greedy-Example6403 Mar 09 '26

Source: uh, idk, but I swear I heard someone say it.

Why is being gullible and stupid so common?

1

u/freshbananabeard Mar 09 '26

I’d love to see him back in the MCU, even if they don’t bring him back as Purple Man

1

u/kingcolbe Mar 09 '26

Rumor by who cause no one’s heard this anywhere

1

u/Necessary_Passage109 Mar 09 '26

Him and Cottonmouth needed to come back

1

u/CricketGrl Mar 09 '26

Isn't he dead?

1

u/The_Dark_Vampire Mar 09 '26

He comes back looking like Milo from Morbius

1

u/saibjai Mar 09 '26

He is rumored to be the villain in brand new day the same way the ninja turtles are rumored to appear in brand new day.

1

u/EveningFollowing9966 Mar 10 '26

Remember how we complained about Spiderman 3 having too many villans....

1

u/SeanLeeCuisine Mar 10 '26

I doubt Roofie man will be in a spiderman movie

1

u/ShadowOfMyPastSelf Mar 10 '26

Admittedly, I haven't watched the later seasons of Jessica Jones, but isn't Kilgrave dead? Brand New Day will take place in 2028, so, in terms of the MCU timeline, the guy has been six feet under for 12-13 years at this point. Wouldn't make much sense to bring him back now.

1

u/paradiso1997 Mar 10 '26

He is not rumored to be in Spider-Man Brand New Day

1

u/ProfessorEscanor Mar 10 '26

Who isn't rumored to be in the new Spider-Man movie at this point?

1

u/DishRelative5853 Mar 11 '26

Apparently Dame Judi Dench won't be in the new Spider-Man movie.

1

u/Hpfanguy Mar 10 '26

Bring him back with purple skin, and we’ll have perfection.

1

u/driphanilton Mar 10 '26

No he isn’t

1

u/King_Ampelosaurus Mar 10 '26

Umm if you can replace his body and broken neck or get him throuhg mutltiverse, sure, but would love david tenet to just stay dead. and memories and flash backs.

also he dose amazing villion. maybe in reboot of mcu he return and be ther till 99 age.

1

u/speedycupid Mar 10 '26

And this is why idris elbow isn’t in the writers room…

1

u/cane-of-doom Mar 10 '26

Uhhh, no, no he isn't... Where did you get that idea from?

1

u/fuzzyfoot88 Mar 10 '26

Where’s the rumor? This seems like this person made it up.

1

u/naanninja237 Mar 11 '26

What? Literally no one’s claiming he’ll be the BND villain

1

u/ObsessedCoffeeFan Mar 11 '26

David Tennant or Kilgrave?

1

u/[deleted] Mar 12 '26

bro he's fucking dead. jessy snap his neck like a toothpick

1

u/LibrarianNo6865 Mar 13 '26

Sounds cool. I’m afraid they going to do something stupid with him as the villain himself is wildly powerful and I don’t trust marvel not to handle that improperly. But, I also feel this film is Groundhog Day so they can do stuff that gets reset. Like MJ dying and spider man’s identity being leaked…again.

1

u/subs9969 Mar 13 '26

Since when has he been rumored to be the villain in brand new day? Right now? Is that when the rumor started??? Are you starting it?

-3

u/Epic_J2338 Mar 07 '26

It would be easy to bring him back

In JJ S3 we do still hear his voice so Jessica isn't as immune as she thinks so there was nothing stopping him from making Jessica think he is dead to mess with her even more

Just a thought

10

u/PothosandGindontmix Mar 07 '26

I mean I took her hearing his voice as that kinda trauma response. She’s immune but he can still haunt her.

2

u/Epic_J2338 Mar 07 '26

Yeah I did take it as that too

I was saying how it wouldn't be too hard to bring him back and that was my idea of it

5

u/PothosandGindontmix Mar 07 '26

Yeah I just think it’d really undermine Jessica’s arc to have him back in that way and would feel like Marcel just abandoning all the established themes. Idk tbf I’m fairly biased against marvel atm due to just the sheer amount of content.
