Summary
AsSpider-Man 4inches closer to filming, fresh rumors have emerged regarding potential characters for the film. Among these rumors, one particularly exciting speculation suggests that Black Cat will finally make her long-awaited debut on screen in the upcoming movie.
With much still unknown about the next installment in theSpider-Manfranchise, new rumors have begun to circulate. Following the events ofSpider-Man: No Way Home, Zendaya’s MJ appears to be out of Peter Parker’s life,or at least temporarily. This leaves an opening for another of Peter’s romantic interests from the comics to enter the picture, and Black Cat could potentially be the one to fill that role.
A recent online rumor, initiallyposted by MyTimeToShineHelloand later shared by @AgentAAA4 on Twitter, suggests thatSpider-Man 4will introduce a long-awaited character for the first time on screen. According to this rumor, Black Cat is set to make her big debut. Black Cat, a character previouslyonly seen in comics, animated shows, and video gamesand never before featured in any live-action Marvel projects, will reportedly appear in the upcoming film. As of now, no additional details about this development are available.
While the reliability of the source may be questionable, the rumor does hold some intriguing potential. More recently, additional rumors have surfaced suggesting that well-known actresses, such as Sidney Sweeney, have been approached for the role. However,speculation about casting for Black Catdates back to 2022, with rumors linking Anya Taylor-Joy to the part. Yet, neither casting choice has been officially confirmed. Moreover, it is worth noting thatSpider-Man 4is currently in the early stages of development, casting further doubt on the validity of the rumor. Nevertheless, many fans have taken to expressing their excitement online at the prospect of finally seeing this beloved character brought to life on screen.
In the comics, Black Cat, also known as Felicia Hardy, is a cat burglar who has been both an enemy and an ally to Spider-Man. Felicity Jones briefly portrayed Hardy in 2014’sThe Amazing Spider-Man 2but never appeared as her character in full costume. Interestingly, Anne Hathaway, who famously portrayed Catwoman inThe Dark Knight Rises, was supposed to appear as an earlier version of Black Cat inSam Raimi’s canceled fourthSpider-Manmovie. Back in 2017, reports surfaced that Sony was developing a film centered around both Black Cat and Silver Sable, another Marvel character, but the project never materialized. Given thatSony still holds the film rights toSpider-Manand associated characters, there remains a possibility that Black Cat could make her big-screen debut.
