The Marvel Cinematic Universe<\/a> is about to bring the whole franchise together for Avengers: Doomsday. With the threat of Doctor Doom looming, Earth\u2019s Mightiest Heroes, the X-Men, and the Fantastic Four will unite on the big screen, opening the door for some interesting dynamics to be on display. Captain America and Cyclops certainly have a lot in common, and Johnny Storm and John Walker might share a few quips, but none of them have history with each other. The fun of an MCU event film is seeing characters reunite after years apart, sharing their experiences and building stronger bonds in the face of insurmountable odds.<\/p>\n

Doomsday is shaping up to bring a few longstanding relationships back to the forefront. For starters, Cap and Bucky Barnes, once great friends, will be at odds over the \u201cAvengers\u201d name<\/a>. They\u2019re sure to bicker like brothers, but they\u2019re going to have to take a back seat in that department because Doomsday is going to feature the long-awaited meeting between the Loki from the Disney+ series and Thor. It\u2019s been seven years since the two last shared the screen in Avengers: Infinity War. However, there\u2019s another potential reunion in Avengers: Secret Wars<\/a> that has that one beat by over three decades, if it comes to pass.<\/p>\n

Avengers: Secret Wars Just Got a Mysterious New Cast Member<\/p>\n

The cast of Doomsday seems set for the most part. Four teams\u2019 worth of heroes and a major villain doesn\u2019t leave much room for anyone else. The only problem is that some notable names didn\u2019t make the cut. Doctor Strange and Captain Marvel are seemingly going to watch Doomsday from the sidelines, as will Spider-Man. Peter Parker staying away at least makes sense because he\u2019s got a solo movie to worry about that will force him to work side-by-side with the Punisher and throw hands with the Hulk. The rest of Spider-Man: Brand New Day\u2018s plot remains a mystery, but the world isn\u2019t nearly as interested in the story beats as it is in Sadie Sink\u2019s role in the movie. <\/p>\n

After the Stranger Things star signed on to the project, theories about her character began circulating. Jean Grey and Mayday Parker have been the most popular ideas<\/a>, as they both have red hair, just like Sink. However, photos from Brand New Day\u2018s set make it seem like Sink is playing a regular person without superpowers. That could very well be the case, since there are plenty of Spider-Man supporting characters who stay out of the action, but there\u2019s another possibility. It may be that Brand New Day is introducing Sink\u2019s character before she can embrace her destiny as a hero in a future project. After all, reports claim that the actress will return in Secret Wars<\/a>, a movie that isn\u2019t going to take anyone in that can\u2019t hang.<\/p>\n

Sadie Sink Could Be Playing a Classic Spider-Man Ally in Avengers: Secret Wars<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In 1981, long before Peter was part of the MCU, he headlined a TV series called Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends. Rather than teaming him up with the usual suspects, the show gave him two partners, Iceman from the X-Men, and Firestar, an original character<\/a>. The group worked together to keep the world safe, and Firestar became popular enough to make the jump from the small screen to the comic books, which was a big deal back in the day. Marvel Comics made her a mutant with the ability to manipulate radiation, allowing her to join the X-Men and the Avengers.<\/p>\n

Firestar never forgot about her good friend Spider-Man, though, spending time with him whenever she found the time. However, it\u2019s been a while since they worked together on a major platform. The MCU can set things right by having Sink play Angelica Jones in Brand New Day, who doesn\u2019t discover her powers until the end of the film or in a post-credits scene. That way, when she returns in Secret Wars, she\u2019ll be ready to fight the forces of evil alongside Peter. Maybe a version of Iceman can also make an appearance and bring the iconic trio back together one more time.<\/p>\n
