One of the weirdest claims we&#8217;ve heard, though, is that the wall-crawler will face Ramrod.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In the comics, he&#8217;s a cyborg\u00a0and primarily a foe of Daredevil and Spider-Man. Debuting in\u00a0Daredevil\u00a0#103, he was created by Steve Gerber and Don Heck and introduced as\u00a0a construction foreman gravely injured in an accident.<\/p>\n<p>Transformed into a cyborg by corrupt attorney Kerwin J. Broderick and Moondragon using Titan&#8217;s advanced tech, Ramrod gained all manner of powers and was blackmailed into helping Broderick\u00a0rule San Francisco. He&#8217;s a goon, and after his\u00a0debut, has been treated as a comedic foil.<\/p>\n<p>Now, reliable runtime and trailer leaker\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Cryptic4KQual\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">@Cryptic4KQual<\/a>\u00a0has shared a rumour that Deadpool &amp; Wolverine star\u00a0Billy Clements will play Spider-Man: Brand New Day&#8217;s Ramrod in a &#8220;quick scene.&#8221; He played The Russian in the 2024 movie, taking over from WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash.<\/p>\n<p>Clements\u00a0didn&#8217;t have any speaking lines and only appeared in a few action scenes, so Marvel Studios enlisting\u00a0him for Spidey&#8217;s next adventure shouldn&#8217;t be too distracting. Plus, he previously showed up in Eternals and Secret Invasion after working on the stunt teams of several MCU projects.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;d bet on Spider-Man taking down Ramrod during the\u00a0rumoured montage in Spider-Man: Brand New Day that better establishes Peter Parker as a street-level superhero following the previous trilogy that ended with 2021&#8217;s Spider-Man: No Way Home.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have been actively sifting through the internet and trying to best understand what it is that the fans want from a &#8216;Spider-Man&#8217;\u00a0movie, and that\u2019s been my driving force in these pitch meetings,&#8221;\u00a0Tom Holland previously said of what fans can expect from the movie. &#8220;I think the producers, at times were like, absolutely sick of me, but I think it\u2019s really important, because we make these movies for [the fans].&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings\u00a0helmer\u00a0Destin Daniel Cretton directs\u00a0Spider-Man: Brand New Day\u00a0from\u00a0a script by returning\u00a0Spider-Man\u00a0franchise writers Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers.<\/p>\n<p>Tom Holland plays Spider-Man in a cast that also includes Jon Bernthal (The Punisher), Mark Ruffalo (The Hulk), Zendaya (MJ), Sadie Sink, Michael Mando (The Scorpion), Tramell Tillman, Marvin Jones III (Tombstone), Jacob Batalon (Ned Leeds),\u00a0and Liza Col\u00f3n-Zayas.\u00a0Avengers: Doomsday\u00a0star Florence Pugh is expected to reprise her\u00a0Thunderbolts*\u00a0role as\u00a0Yelena Belova.<\/p>\n<p>Spider-Man: Brand New Day\u00a0will be released in theaters on\u00a0July 31, 2026.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Several villains are expected to appear in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, with Tarantula, Boomerang, and The Hand likely&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":351989,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[96,2839,19799,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-351988","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-movies","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-movies","10":"tag-spider-man-brand-new-day","11":"tag-uk","12":"tag-united-kingdom","13":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/351988","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=351988"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/351988\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/351989"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=351988"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=351988"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=351988"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
