Spider-Man: Brand New Day's extended edition arrives in theaters before Avengers: Doomsday with 7 minutes of extra scenes
Get ready for more Spidey in cinemas
Spider-Man: Brand New Day is swinging back into cinemas in December with an extended edition.
As spotted on Reddit, AMC Theaters listed a Brand New Day re-release – complete with seven minutes of bonus footage – for December 4, some two weeks before Avengers: Doomsday.
The listing has since been removed, but the runtime and the 'Brand New Day' URL remains – a surefire sign that Spidey's most successful movie returns in just a few weeks with fresh goodies.
We already have an inkling of one deleted scene that could make the cut this time, courtesy of Claire Temple actor Rosario Dawson. The decision to remove her scene – presumably featuring Spider-Man's trip to the emergency room at the tail-end of the movie – was so late in the day that Dawson even had her behind the scenes photo ready to plaster all over social media.
Whatever else is on the way remains to be seen. The Brand New Day post-credits scene appears to tie into Doomsday, so that's a prime candidate to be expanded upon. There's also a small chance that the Endgame Encore bonus footage focusing on what happened next to Mark Ruffalo's Hulk could be bolted onto the Brand New Day re-release as an epilogue-of-sorts.
Then: Doomsday. The emergence of Robert Downey Jr.'s Doctor Doom has already captured the attention of the world, with the latest confirmation that he isn't a Tony Stark variant only making us more intrigued for what could be the biggest Marvel film in history.
