Despite Marvel fans still being in the dark over which comic book hero Sadie Sink is playing in Spider-Man 4, it seems as though the character is important enough to appear in further MCU movies, including Avengers: Secret Wars.

As reported by Deadline, Sink has joined the cast of Avengers: Secret Wars and is due to start shooting in London later in 2026. Marvel Studios has yet to confirm the news.

The Secret Wars news has fans theorising even further. "She’s definitely playing Firestar, who is an X-Man and Avenger in the comics," said one fan on Twitter, and another replied, "So she's either Mayday Parker, Firestar, or Jean Grey." Whoever she is, the character must be crucial enough to break out of the Spider-Man world.
