Spider-Man fans have reason to celebrate—Marvel's web-slinging hero is returning to the big screen in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. With Peter Parker’s identity erased from everyone’s memory after No Way Home, the film is expected to mark a new chapter, likely featuring fewer returning characters from earlier entries. So, who’s in and who might be? Here’s a look at the confirmed and rumored cast for Brand New Day.

Confirmed Cast of Spider-Man: Brand New Day

• Tom Holland returns as Peter Parker, facing a more serious chapter in his superhero journey.
• Zendaya reprises her role as MJ, though she no longer remembers Peter—a dynamic expected to evolve in the sequel.
• Jacob Batalon is back as Ned Leeds, whose loss of memory complicates his bond with Peter, and theories suggest a possible Hobgoblin arc.
• Jon Bernthal, confirmed by The Hollywood Reporter, joins as a toned-down version of Frank Castle/The Punisher, tailored for PG-13 audiences.
• Mark Ruffalo will appear as Bruce Banner/The Hulk, though how his story integrates with Peter’s remains to be seen.
