Spider-Man 4: Sadie Sink Casting Has Fans Excited Over Possible MCU Characters

Sadie Sink being cast in Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures’ Spider-Man 4 has MCU fans excited.

Earlier today, on Wednesday, March 12, 2025, it was officially confirmed that the actor Sink, renowned for his role as Max Mayfield, has been chosen to join the cast of Marvel’s Spider-Man 4, scheduled for release in 2026.

It’s unclear at this point which character Sophie Turner (Sink) will be playing in the upcoming movie. However, there’s a strong speculation that she might take on the role of Jean Grey, the renowned X-Men character, given that rumors have been circulating for months about Marvel considering Turner for this part.

The article by Deadline hints at the possibility of her portraying another popular red-haired Spider-Man character, sparking speculation among fans as to whether she might embody a variation of Mary Jane Watson from an alternate reality or possibly Gwen Stacy.

In Marvel Comics, the character Gwen is usually depicted as a blonde. However, she has been portrayed differently in live-action adaptations. For instance, Bryce Dallas Howard played her in Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man 3, and Emma Stone portrayed her in Marc Webb’s Amazing Spider-Man series.
