A Spider-Man: Brand New Day credits scene rumour has led to a new theory that one or more Avengers could be returning in the upcoming film. Fans think the scene might connect Peter Parker’s next story to the wider Marvel Cinematic Universe, especially after recent rumours about returning characters and future crossover events.

There has been no official confirmation of the alleged leak. As always, until Marvel Studios or Sony Pictures confirm the details, any rumours about the scene, its characters, or how it ties into the Avengers should be taken with a grain of salt.

Post-credits scene could bring Spider-Man back to the Avengers

The biggest theory is that the credits scene could see Spider-Man back in touch with the Avengers.

In the aftermath of Spider-Man: No Way Home, Peter Parker was cut off from his friends and former allies. Perhaps in a later scene another hero discovers his identity, realises his powers or comes to him with a bigger threat.

This would allow Marvel to tie Peter’s personal journey to the upcoming team movies without making the entire movie dependent on an Avengers story.

Doctor Strange Still Remains a Popular Theory

One of the most talked-about potential returning characters is Doctor Strange.

His part in No Way Even though the final spell wiped the memories of Peter Parker from people’s minds, Home directly hit Peter’s life. Fans have speculated whether Strange will one day learn that he is missing a crucial part of his memory.

A Strange post-credits scene could set the stage for multiverse events, magical fallout, or Peter’s return to a larger superhero team.

Daredevil and Street Level Heroes May Also Appear

Another theory points to a more down to earth connection with Daredevil.

We’ve already seen Matt Murdock in Peter Parker’s world and “Brand New Day” could focus more on street level crime. Daredevil or the Punisher or some New York-based hero might pop up in a credits scene instead of some big cosmic character.

This could work for a smaller Spider-Man story, while still expanding Peter’s role in the wider MCU.

Sam Wilson May Be In Avengers Return Theory

Some fans think Captain America — now played by Sam Wilson — could be the hero to recruit Spider-Man.

Sam could be in the process of rebuilding or reorganising the Avengers. Even if no one remembers Peter’s civilian identity, his experience and powers, as well as his history with major threats, could still make him useful.

A quick meeting of Captain America and Spider-Man could set the stage for a future Avengers movie.

Or the scene could introduce a villain.

Not all theories have a returning hero.

Or, the credits scene could show a villain connected to both Spider-Man and the Avengers. Or Kingpin, or some other big bad, could be used to tie Peter’s next adventure into a larger conflict with a multiverse threat.

In the credits scenes, Marvel often teases future dangers instead of tying up the story of the main film.

Brand New Day May Centre on Peter’s New Life

The title implies that Peter Parker is starting over, throwing off not only his old relationships but his old image, too.

The film could have him living on his own, making a new suit, and taking Spider-Man more seriously. It would have provided the character a more classic comic book set up before tying him back into larger MCU events.

So a credits scene could be the link between Peter’s personal reset and his next big crossover.
