Sadie Sink, renowned for her role as Max Mayfield in Stranger Things, has officially joined the cast of Marvel’s upcoming Spider-Man 4, starring alongside Tom Holland. This casting has ignited widespread speculation regarding her character, with many fans theorizing that Sink might portray May “Mayday” Parker, the daughter of Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson. In the comics, Mayday inherits her father’s spider abilities and assumes the mantle of Spider-Girl.
The theory gains traction considering the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s (MCU) exploration of the multiverse, especially after Tobey Maguire’s reprisal of his Spider-Man role in Spider-Man: No Way Home. Fans speculate that Sink’s character could be introduced as Mayday Parker from an alternate universe where Maguire’s Peter Parker is her father, potentially setting the stage for Maguire’s return in future MCU installments.
However, it’s important to note that Marvel Studios has not officially confirmed Sink’s role in Spider-Man 4. While the idea of her portraying Mayday Parker is intriguing and aligns with certain narrative possibilities within the MCU, it remains speculative at this stage. Fans eagerly await further announcements to shed light on Sink’s character and the direction of the upcoming film.
