Speculations regarding Scorpion’s much-awaited debut in Spider-Man: Brand New Day suggest that the iconic Marvel villain could extend his MCU run with a future project. Portrayed by Michael Mando, the character was recently confirmed to make an appearance in Spider-Man 4.

Marvel Studios is currently filming Spider-Man: Brand New Day, which will be the fourth standalone movie for Tom Holland’s character. However, this time he’s going to be joined by a whole host of characters in what is promising to be an action-packed film as the Marvel Cinematic Universe continues to expand.

Marvel has become synonymous with secrecy. Any leak from an MCU set could potentially ruin an enormous surprise for fans, so the studio has taken every possible measure to avoid that throughout its near-20-year history.
