Earlier this month, reports surfaced suggesting Sadie Sink, known for her role as Max Mayfield in Stranger Things, is set to join Tom Holland in Spider-Man 4. Deadline reported that Sink, whose film debut was in the 2016 biographical sports drama Chuck, would appear in the upcoming MCU film, slated to begin filming later this year and release on July 31, 2026.
While Marvel and Sony remained tight-lipped when contacted by Deadline, the publication speculated Sink might portray either Jean Grey from the X-Men or another popular redheaded Spider-Man character. IGN subsequently explored various Marvel characters Sink could plausibly play in Spider-Man 4 and beyond within the MCU.

She confirmed she hadn't spoken to Kevin Feige or any Marvel representatives about the role, stating, "I have nothing to say about this," while acknowledging Jean Grey as "a great character." However, she expressed excitement about the potential of committing to a long-term MCU role. The interview concluded with Sink clearly preferring to keep her involvement under wraps.
