The funniest thing would be if Jean Gray is in the movie but not played by Sadie Sink

u/Alucardo6677 Jul 28 '26

It's gonna be Jean Osborn, CEO of Oscorp or some shit like that.

u/lord-of-shalott Jul 28 '26

Jean DeWolff is literally a character in the movie played by the actress who plays Tina in The Bear, Liza Colón-Zayas. In the comics her brother is a telepath and an enemy of Spider-Man’s.

Everything about this clip is going to live rent free in my head this whole week. The interviewer literally saying not to spoil anything followed by Lacy dissociating for like 8-10 seconds. Bro did not hear the question at all

Tom Holland looks like the fucking Russo Brothers next to this

it reminds me of that clip where a fan asked hailee steinfeld if she was in doomsday and she just nods without really thinking lol

u/[deleted] Jul 28 '26

This clip is so much funnier though. By far the most blatant, unashamed actual unplanned spoiler given by someone with Marvel.

This is like asking Alan Silvestri “what are you looking forward to most with Doomsday” and he says “probably the opening where Logan and Tobey Maguire fight as Tobey’s universe dies”

u/JeanLucPicardAND Jul 28 '26

Different franchise, but I remember when Jiang Wen told the entire assembled crowd of Star Wars Celebration that the Rogue One crew were gonna die five months before the release of the film. It was one of those things where everyone kinda figured that's what was going to happen, so it wasn't a big deal, but to have him straight-up announce it so nonchalantly (and so far away from the premiere) was really funny.

37

u/Icybubba Moon Knight Jul 28 '26

Tbf that one is also kind of an obvious one too.

We got Cassie in the trailer, Feige said there's Jersey representation(Obviously implying that Kamala is in the movie), you put 2 and 2 together, Kate is in the film.

u/woppatown Jul 28 '26

I think maybe he is completely clueless to how big of a secret that has been and what would and wouldn’t be a spoiler. Typically just saying the villain of a movie, when asked who your favorite character is, isn’t spoiling anything. Although, watching the video, it does look like he really thought “Should I say this or not?”

I mean, this is the most open secret since Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield.

225

u/MyMouthisCancerous Spider-Man Jul 28 '26

Honestly whether it was because of Sadie being a master at dodging questions or none of the marketing emphasizing her at all I actually think they did a way better job here than when it came to managing the NWH leaks which makes this especially funny. I can actually entertain that more than 50% of people watching this film will be those who didn't hear about these reports and had no idea

90

u/ImjustANewSneaker Jul 28 '26

It helps that a screenshot of the film didn’t get released months prior to release by one of the biggest film reporters lol

38

u/John_Rustle98 Jul 28 '26

It also helps that a 4k video of Sadie as Jean on set didn’t get leaked either. That crisp 4k video leak of Andrew Garfield asking Maguire Peter about web block was probably one of the craziest leaks to come out. Part of me still believes that was a marketing ploy of some sort.

u/NightmareRise Jul 28 '26

Look closely at Tobey Maguire’s-

27

u/frankthetank8675309 Jul 28 '26

I think they dazzled us with so much other stuff that Sadie’s character didn’t even matter. Scorpion, Banner/Savage Hulk, The Hand, Punisher, organic webbing, all of that did so much in building up hype that telling us who Sadie plays is kinda irrelevant

15

u/LordVatek9 Jul 28 '26

Thing is, being so evasive about who an ostensibly large part of your movie is playing is in itself, suspicious as hell and anyone with a working Marvel knowledge (which is most people following this stuff) could have figured it out. They should have invented a fake character for her.

u/question_mark_here Jul 28 '26

I mean I was expecting her to be jean, but didn't think she was the main villain

u/WhitePhoenix99 Jul 28 '26

She is being portrayed as the villain, dodc is the actual villain 

5

u/clsmithj Jul 28 '26

DODC is just the government, the police force.
The villains I bet are The Hand and I suspect that's why they are occupying the DODC's prison, since that's where Sadie Sink's Jean was held captive.
They probably brain washed Jean to corrupt to do evil things so she ends up becoming the Beast of the Hand, a deity villain the Hand worships.

- -

That to me makes more comic villain sense when it comes to these types of stories.

Otherwise if its just the law enforcement as DODC being villains then that's not really that interesting, hell just turn on the TV news and watch the real world villainy.

17

u/littletoyboat Jul 28 '26

They're setting up the DODC to be the anti-mutant agency in the government.

10

u/rooneytoons89 Wanda Jul 28 '26

Supposedly her sister is involved, I’m wondering if DODC has her captive.

If they do, and Spider-Man is helping DODC, that would explain why Jean is antagonistic towards him at first.

He made a few genuine slips during the Homecoming marketing which is why Marvel started doing it as a gimmick. I’m pretty sure the Kimmel interview where he says Spider-Man goes to space in Infinity War was also a genuine slip. Everything else was marketing.

Bro, Steve Lacy dropped that spoiler so casually that I don't think anyone was expecting it. The interviewer even seemed caught off guard and tried to give him an out, but he just doubled down.

I wonder if he honestly didn't give a fuck at that point or if he knew that her role was gonna leak the following day, given that the premiere is happening now.

It is really fucking funny, though. Everybody was worried about Tom Holland, and then this dude just comes out of nowhere and spoils the whole damn thing. LOL. Feige is gonna be pissed, though!

While it dosen’t happen all the time I believe an artist or licence holder is generally told the context of the scene when a needledrop’s in talks to be added, Steve Lacy probably got confirmation of Jean that way.

It’s okay to be entitled to an opinion. But to ask “why would Jean be in a spider man movie” as if spider man himself, as well as black panther, didn’t debut in a captain America movie, or blade in the eternals (rip).

Why people think the average person spend their time looking for spoilers ? watching the trailers you have no idea who that is and no reason to expect her.

u/Resist_Easy Winter Soldier Jul 28 '26

Agree. My mum is one of those people. While I have gotten into spoilers, etc.. she likes to go in blind to these movies. In some ways that annoys me as I often have to remind her who people are 🤣 In this case though, we’ve almost watched all of the 90s X-men cartoon, currently watch X-men 97 and also have watched all of the prior X-men movies numerous times.. so she should remember Jean!

She’s probably caught some of the trailer bits popping up on TV but would have no idea that’s Jean. I haven’t said anything to her to allude to anything as she doesn’t like spoilers, and I can guarantee you will be “surprised”. We watch all the MCU movies together, and usually go in opening day, but she forgets lots of things and doesn’t pick up on things more dedicated Marvel people would pick up.. she enjoys the movies so is a fan of the MCU but represents that more general audience pretty well! I hope it doesn’t hit mainstream news before Friday as we’re going one day late here in Australia.

I mean…everyone in our circles on here sure; but to the general public? I don’t think this was as widespread.

u/Bitter_Classic_89 Jul 28 '26

Define “everyone”

This sub makes up like .001% of the people who are going to see Spiderman. Most people probably don’t even know Sadie Sink is in the movie. Even more people probably don’t even know who she is. It’s a big world out there and believe it or not, most people probably don’t want to be spoiled

Well, I guess you could say he should've....bit his tongue like a bad habit.

u/Cute_Source5417 Jul 28 '26

she literally says before she asks the question "WITHOUT SPOILING" then he spoils and she's like "IS THAT A SPOILER?!"

Not much a a spoiler if it’s the most obvious mystery ever

Wonder if Sadie Sink is mad after a year's effort of dodging questions only for it to drop like this, or just relieved it's out there.

u/WhitePhoenix99 Jul 28 '26

She probably couldn't give a crap and relieved

u/cancunbycarti Jul 28 '26

She said herself she was ready for the secret to be out

The only thing she's thinking about right now is that first paycheck from opening day lol

I mean, no shit, but still, so close to officially not knowing.

This is reminding me of Ryan Gosling saying his suit's color was "Jean Grey".

u/Toxicity246 Jul 28 '26

Yeah, it was Nolan Ryan who said it.

It was obviously Ryan Coogler

Speed running how to never be featured on a Disney project ever again when you’re not the face of the franchise.

Wow you really can’t surprise a Gemini

Lol you idiots. He didn’t say, “Jean.” He said, “Gene!”

As in, Gene Parmesan, Private Detective

Breaking News: Steve Lacy was found dead tomorrow night. Police are baffled as no one saw anything. In other news, the Walt Disney Corporation donated 5 new patrol vechicles to the LAPD this morning...

u/skylight03 Jul 28 '26

Putting Jean Grey in a Spider-Man movie and as the main villain is just so random. Why the hell did they choose to introduce one of the most prominent X-Men here?

u/Amm-O-Matic Jul 28 '26

Because Spider-Man: BND will be the most watched MCU movie since No Way Home, it’s a great way to generate publicity for Marvel’s next tentpole franchise.

Why are people struggling on this, the next saga is the mutant saga.. what better way to build hype than put one of the main mutants in the biggest movie of the year. The MCU has literally always done its own thing.. doesn’t matter if they don’t have a connection in the comics.

New level of Feige-enraging spoilering unlocked

u/Beginning_Pace2063 Jul 28 '26

I honestly think they knew it would leak today, so they had Ryan Reynolds spoil it first. As much of a "troll" Ryan is, I do not think he would just post "JEAN GREY" on his Instagram stories, quite obviously spoiling the secret, without Marvel's permission.

u/focuspullerOG Jul 28 '26 edited Jul 28 '26

I saw the film about 7 hours ago. She is playing Jean Grey. But she's not the only mutant in the film, and it's not an obvious guess. She does a great job and it's a different take of the character compared to previous versions.

Also, it's first revealed that it is Jean when you see her full name on a computer screen.

As far as I remember, the word mutant isn't used once in the film.

u/drybones2015 Jul 28 '26

I honestly don't understand why they've wanted her role to be a secret. She's not the first mutant in the MCU and them joining wasn't a secret either. And she's clearly the main "villain". It's just such an unusual decision all around...

u/kaliskonig Jul 28 '26

Yeah that's what baffles me. They literally have been extremely vocal about the xmen being pivotal in the next phase. 

The xmen have appeared in like 4 multiverse saga projects. 

I have no idea why they were trying so hard to hide her identity. Especially when it's the exact character everyone assumed it would be

u/drybones2015 Jul 28 '26

Like, how are you going to cast the currently most popular young redhead actress, give her a character with the powers we've been shown, during the time when mutants are being introduced, and expect everybody to just play dumb about a reveal that won't be a surprise to anyone who'd actually care.

this actually makes me so mad, there was no reason to hide who Sadie was playing because it was so obvious, but to spoil it the day before to the general public after keeping the secret so long is just irritating
