A recent MCU rumor suggests that Marvel Studios has big plans for this returning villain in Spider-Man: Brand New Day.

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.

Brand New Days follows the events of No Way Home, with the spell cast by Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) causing the world to forget Spider-Man's real identity and erasing all memories of Peter from those closest to him, including girlfriend MJ (Zendaya) and best friend Ned (Jacob Batalon).
