Podcast appearances and mentions of Destin Daniel Cretton

On our first Comic Book Bears livestream for August 2026, the CBB boys (Steve, Caleb and Billy Z) spoke about Spider-Man: Brand New Day soon after it was released to cinemas. Here we are at the end of the month and it is still dominating the global box office, and now that livestream is here in audio form! The movie is the 38th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the fourth film in the MCU Spider-Man film series. Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, Spider-Man: Brand New Day stars Tom Holland as Peter Parker/Spider-Man alongside Zendaya, Jacob Batalon, Jon Bernthal, Florence Pugh, Marisa Tomei, and Mark Ruffalo with Sadie Sink as a major Marvel Comics character making her MCU debut. In the film, Peter Parker is on his own and dedicated to protecting New York City as Spider-Man, just as personal struggles and an evolutionary development to his superpowers complicate matters while contending with a new threat. As is the tradition when we have a film-based episode, we offer up what we thought of the movie (be forewarned, in a very spoileriffic manner) and then we each make a suggestion regarding a collected edition featuring characters from the film. After that we even get in a little bit of roundtable time to talk about some recent comics - in this case, Terminal #1 by Robert Kirkman, Joe Casey and Adam Kubert (Image Comics), the final installment of Heartstopper by Alice Oseman (Graphix) and the latest installments of Silence (#5: Dream and #6: Nightmare), the queer themed wordless project from Łukasz Majcher's Moom Comics! So hit play for all this and more! 

Crime rates are down and Marvel is back UP with Spider-man swinging through town. New York City's favorite web-head is here to give us everything we want in a Spider-man film. From Destin Daniel Cretton comes the box office (HULK) smash hit, Spider-man: Brand New Day. We find Spidey living with the results of his ultimate sacrifice from No Way Home. Peter Parker deals with a Punishing, and to be quite Frank, Castle-sized consequence from his multiversal mishap. But don't worry, because James & Nick are here to give Peter a brand new review and a friendly neighborhood dap up. Please remove your grey jeans when entering the sauna, because this film is already off to a HOT start.Thanks for tuning in.

It's a solo wanderer's dispatch from the front lines of nerd culture — one host moving through comic shops, midnight movie premieres, maker garages, and the digital back‑alleys where fandoms thrive. No hype, no corporate gloss. Just raw, street‑level reporting on what's new, weird, and worth caring about.

Peter and Eden compare the two Conan the Barbarian movies — the 1982 John Milius original that made Arnold Schwarzenegger a star, and the 2011 Jason Momoa remake. Peter, mid-outline on a new novel using Jessica Brody's Save the Cat beat sheet, finds the 1982 film fascinating but slow precisely because it ignores modern story beats in favor of a mythic, Wagnerian hero; the 2011 film follows every rule and lands soulless. They break down why the remake fails on nearly every front, geek out over James Earl Jones' Thulsa Doom and Basil Poledouris' score, and flag two upcoming projects: the Schwarzenegger/Christopher McQuarrie King Conan and the gender-swapped French curio She Is Conann. Before that, they catch up on Peter's 50th in Vegas — the Backstreet Boys at the Sphere and 20 laps in a Ferrari 296 GTB — and Spider-Man: Brand New Day.Show NotesThe catch-up: Eden's intrusive thoughts won and they dyed their beard purple rather than shave it again, a look they're keeping until they get bored.Lis's new gig: Peter's wife is now voice faculty at Idaho State University, teaching voice lessons to music majors and sitting in on juries.Eden — Rebecca Black: New Rebecca Black songs keep dropping ahead of an album due in two weeks, and they think she's one of the most interesting people working in pop music right now.Eden — Roll Over and Die: They caught up to the current volumes of the gory, action-packed light novel series Roll Over and Die, even if they wish they'd drop the bloated subtitle.Eden — The Credits Roll Into the Sea: The manga about a 70-year-old widow who enrolls in a university film program after her husband dies had a quiet tenderness they loved. The Credits Roll into the SeaEden — games: They joined a monthly brothers-in-law co-op night playing Heroes of Hammerwatch, which they think the sequel improves on.Eden — Fields of Mistria: The farming sim Fields of Mistria is out of early access and is one of the better Stardew-likes they've played, on the strength of its character writing.Eden — Bad Movie Bros: Movie night returned with the gloriously bad Gor, a Conan knockoff based on John Norman's sword-and-planet novels, with the sequel already queued.Spider-Man: Brand New Day: The fourth Tom Holland Spider-Man is Peter's favorite of the four and Eden's best yet, both crediting Destin Daniel Cretton's direction.Spider-Man's Punisher: They argued the unusually light Punisher is deliberate — the first person Frank Castle has cared about since his family died, so he drops the grimness around Peter.Peter's 50th in Vegas: The whole family of eight came together in Las Vegas, and Peter correctly guessed the Backstreet Boys' Into the Millennium residency at the Sphere was the Saturday show.Ferrari at SpeedVegas: Lis bought him 20 laps in a Ferrari 296 GTB at SpeedVegas, where he hit about 137 mph on the 2,000-foot straightaway under relentless coaching from his instructor, Nico.Lucky: He's caught up through six episodes of Lucky, an Anya Taylor-Joy con-artist thriller that won't win awards but is a ton of fun.Ted Lasso returns: Season four follows Richmond's new women's team and is unapologetic about the shit women's sports has to put up with.Mortal Kombat: The 2021 Mortal Kombat was so flat Peter skipped the sequel, a midi-chlorian-style explanation for character powers that was completely unnecessary.The Expanse: He's halfway through Leviathan Wakes and enjoying the series so far.Beyond Grace: The UK band's Welcome to the New Dark Ages Part Three completes a heavy, ugly, socially conscious death-metal trilogy he's had on repeat.Death: Returning to Death reminded him what a spectacular discography Chuck Schuldiner left behind, with some eerie prescience on The Sound of Perseverance.Main topic: The episode's feature compares the 1982 and 2011 Conan the Barbarian movies.Why 1982 works: Peter, mid-outline using Save the Cat Writes a Novel's 15 beats, found the Milius film fascinating but slow — a mythic, Wagnerian hero with no B-story and no internal conflict.The 1982 details: Basil Poledouris' score, the Andalusia shoot, and James Earl Jones' scenery-chewing Thulsa Doom carry it, with the riddle-of-steel payoff landing.Why 2011 fails: The remake hits every beat on paper but is soulless — Momoa has no presence, Rose McGowan is the only interesting thing in it, and it's all cheap CGI.2011 plot holes: Breaking a magic mask into eight pieces instead of a million, elephants dragging a boat through a jungle, and instant travel between far-flung citadels.2011's politics: Eden flagged how the orcish peoples read as Native American and African while the white characters don't get the same treatment.Financial disaster: The $90 million remake grossed around $60 million, and Peter argues it deserved worse.Worst movies: It sits near the very bottom of everything they've watched, in the running with Knights of the Zodiac and Black Adam.King Conan: A long-in-development King Conan sequel with Schwarzenegger and Christopher McQuarrie is finally moving forward.She Is Conann: Eden discovered She Is Conann, a gender-swapped French take starring five actresses as Conan at different ages, and can't wait to watch it.

Josh is joined by Marvel Correspondent Maya to talk all about the newest entry into the MCU, “Spider-Man: Brand New Day”! They discuss how the effective writer/director Destin Daniel Cretton was in continuing Spider-Man's story in a world in which no one knows who Peter Parker is, the choice to make someone who had mostly only had a TV presence in the MCU in The Punisher a large part of the story, Sadie Sink's introduction into the MCU in an important role, the rest of the performances including Tom Holland, Zendaya and Florence Pugh, the quality of the action and much more! Spoilers throughout!

This week, we're back in the theaters to see what is currently on track to be one of the biggest movies ever made. Breaking the previous opening weekend record, the 4th Tom Holland Spiderman (and 38th MCU film) spends time on practical effects and characters people have grown to love. Spider-Man: Brand New Day (2026), directed by the Destin Daniel Cretton.

Moviewallas: One Night Only, The End of Oak Street & Spider-Man: Brand New Day This week on Moviewallas, Joe, Rashmi, and Yazdi tackle three very different new releases: the high-concept romantic comedy One Night Only, the dinosaur-filled suburban adventure The End of Oak Street, and the latest chapter in Tom Holland's Spider-Man story, Spider-Man: Brand New Day. The team also responds to listener feedback about The Odyssey, including the suggestion that Peter Jackson might have been better suited to tell the story across several films. Then it is time for another edition of “I Can't Find Anything to Watch…”, with three streaming recommendations and a bonus pick from a listener. Streaming Picks Margot's Got Money Troubles – Apple TV Rashmi recommends this series starring Elle Fanning, Michelle Pfeiffer, Nick Offerman, and Greg Kinnear. A college dropout and aspiring writer must find a way to support herself and her new baby while facing a rapidly growing pile of bills. The Room Next Door – Netflix Yazdi recommends Pedro Almodóvar's thoughtful drama starring Julianne Moore and Tilda Swinton. The film explores friendship, dignity, life, death, and the choices people make when confronting mortality. The Dink – Apple TV Joe recommends this warm-hearted pickleball comedy starring Jake Johnson, Mary Steenburgen, and Ed Harris, with appearances from Ben Stiller and several familiar faces. It may lovingly mock the sport and its players, but it also delivers a funny and thoroughly enjoyable Friday-night movie. Bonus Pick: A Good Girl's Guide to Murder – Netflix Listener Michelle recommends this binge-worthy mystery series for fans of Nancy Drew and The Hardy Boys. One Night Only In a fictional New York City where premarital sex and public displays of affection are forbidden for all but one night of the year, two people search for love while repeatedly missing, finding, and losing one another over the course of a single evening. Directed by Will Gluck and starring Callum Turner and Monica Barbaro, the film combines a deliberately absurd premise with the familiar pleasures of a romantic comedy. The hosts discuss the unanswered questions raised by its strange dystopian world, whether the premise needed a sharper political edge, and why none of that ultimately matters when the two leads have such appealing chemistry. Stylish, funny, romantic, and considerably more risqué than its sweet nature initially suggests, One Night Only succeeds by making the audience genuinely care about whether its central couple will find their way to each other. The End of Oak Street Written and directed by David Robert Mitchell, The End of Oak Street follows a suburban family whose neighborhood is transported somewhere unfamiliar after a mysterious cosmic event. Starring Anne Hathaway, Ewan McGregor, Maisy Stella, and Christian Convery, the film blends family drama, science fiction, horror, and the nostalgic spirit of 1980s Amblin adventures. The team describes it as Jurassic Park in suburbia – hammy, underwritten, occasionally ridiculous, but enormously entertaining. They discuss its impressive creatures, its surprisingly frightening and violent moments, its commitment to genuine danger, and the way it captures the look and atmosphere of films such as Super 8, E.T., and the classic Spielberg productions of the era. It may not be the film that saves cinema, but it is a loud, tense, nostalgic popcorn movie that deserves to be experienced in a theatre. Spider-Man: Brand New Day Tom Holland returns as Peter Parker in the fourth film of this Spider-Man series, directed by Destin Daniel Cretton. Following the events of the previous film, Peter is living alone in a world where the people closest to him no longer remember who he is. As he continues his life as Spider-Man, the emotional weight of that loneliness begins to shape his choices. The hosts discuss the film's quieter and more melancholic tone, its focus on sacrifice and isolation, the importance of revisiting the previous movies before watching, and whether audiences may be feeling some degree of superhero fatigue. While Yazdi questions the reuse of familiar Marvel villains, Rashmi and Joe respond strongly to the film's emotional core, focused storytelling, and the journey of a Peter Parker forced to ask what a meaningful life looks like when it must be lived alone. The action is polished, but it is the film's heart, relationships, and sense of longing that make Brand New Day stand out.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day Editors – Nat Sanders, ACE; Harry Yoon, ACE and Gina Sansom Spider-Man: Brand New Day editors Nat Sanders, ACE, Harry Yoon, ACE and Gina Sansom join The Rough Cut to discuss helping director Destin Daniel Cretton take Peter Parker into a deeper, more grounded chapter of his story. Nat and Gina began the film together during production, with Harry joining them for the director's cut, bringing together three editors who had each previously collaborated with Destin on projects ranging from Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings to Wonder Man. Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, Spider-Man: Brand New Day finds Peter Parker (Tom Holland) fighting crime full-time as Spider-Man in a world that no longer remembers him. As Peter watches MJ (Zendaya) and Ned (Jacob Batalon) continue their lives without him, the pressure of his isolation begins to trigger a transformation he may not be able to control. At the same time, a new threat emerges in New York, drawing Peter into a conflict that also brings him together with Frank Castle / The Punisher (Jon Bernthal), Bruce Banner / Hulk (Mark Ruffalo) and Jean Grey (Sadie Sink). The film also stars Tramell Tillman and Michael Mando. For Nat, Brand New Day continues a long creative relationship with Cretton that stretches back to Short Term 12 and includes The Glass Castle, Just Mercy and Shang-Chi. Harry previously worked with Cretton and Nat on Shang-Chi, while Gina came to the film following collaborations with Cretton on American Born Chinese and Wonder Man. Brand New Day also marks Gina's first feature as an editor. In our interview, Nat, Harry and Gina discuss dividing the film between three editors, working in close proximity to production at Pinewood Studios, shaping Peter Parker's darker and more emotionally complex story, and using previews to test radically different versions of the film. They also talk about finding the right balance between practical action and visual effects, managing the reveal and evolution of Jean Grey, preserving Peter's emotional point of view in his scenes with MJ and Ned, and collaborating with composer Michael Giacchino as the film developed through post. NAT SANDERS, ACE Nat Sanders, ACE is an Academy Award-nominated editor whose credits include Moonlight, If Beale Street Could Talk, Short Term 12, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, The Glass Castle and Just Mercy. A longtime collaborator of director Destin Daniel Cretton, Nat has worked with him from independent character dramas through large-scale studio filmmaking. Nat received an Academy Award nomination alongside Joi McMillon for editing Moonlight and has twice won the Independent Spirit Award for Best Editing. HARRY YOON, ACE Harry Yoon, ACE is an editor whose feature credits include Minari, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, Thunderbolts*, The Fire Inside, The Last Black Man in San Francisco, First Man and Detroit. Harry's work spans intimate character dramas and large-scale action films, with a particular focus on maintaining performance and emotional point of view within complex visual storytelling. Spider-Man: Brand New Day reunites him with Destin Daniel Cretton and Nat Sanders following their work together on Shang-Chi. GINA SANSOM Gina Sansom is an Emmy-nominated editor whose television credits include Wonder Man, Our Flag Means Death, American Born Chinese, Reservation Dogs, Silicon Valley, Better Things, Love and Horace and Pete. She received an Emmy nomination for her work on Horace and Pete. After previously collaborating with Destin Daniel Cretton on American Born Chinese and Wonder Man, Gina makes her feature editing debut with Spider-Man: Brand New Day.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day continues to break box office records, after having the biggest U.S. opening weekend in history. Tonya Mosley talks with the film's director, Destin Daniel Cretton. Long before Marvel, he worked in a group home for at-risk teens. He says it's an experience that shaped everything he's made since then, and became the movie Short Term 12.Also, we hear from Harriet Clark. She was a baby when her mother was a getaway driver of a robbery of a Brink's truck in 1981. The robbers were members of a radical offshoot of the Weather Underground and the Black Panthers. For 37 years, Clark spent Saturdays visiting her mother in prison. “She figured out how to mother me in some of the most difficult conditions possible,” Clark tells Terry Gross. Her novel, The Hill, draws on her experience visiting her mother in prison. Subscribe to our free weekly newsletter Follow us on Instagram Subscribe to our YouTube channel Check out the Fresh Air ArchivesSupport public media with NPR+ and enjoy perks for over 25 podcasts like this one.

Send us Fan MailMid-2026: it was a Tom Holland and Zendaya summer and now we're left in its wake, pondering two of the year's most anticipated cinematic spectacles starring those marvelous newlyweds and their intensely motor-mouthed friend Jon Bernthal where each film was tasked with living up to enormous hopes and sky-high expectations and we're wondering if those impossible expectations were met. We're talking about Christopher Nolan's IMAX epic, The Odyssey starring Matt Damon, Anne Hathaway, Tom Holland, Robert Pattinson, Zendaya, Jon Bernthal, John Leguizamo, Samantha Morton, and Charlize Theron. And Sony Marvel's Spider-Man: Brand New Day, which came out two weeks after The Odyssey, directed by Destin Daniel Cretton and starring Tom Holland, Zendaya, Jacob Batalon, Jon Bernthal, Sadie Sink and Mark Ruffalo.  My guests today are series regulars Roseanne Caputi, Dr. David Johnson DMD, and after nearly a year-long hiatus from the Triple F, Professor Joe Field, Before we remove our critical inhibitors, the synopses: In The Odyssey, Troy has fallen, and a battle-weary king Odysseus sets sail for home — only to be thrown into a decade-long nightmare of cyclops, sirens, giants, gods, and spells, every sojourn testing how far a man will go to see his family again. Back in Ithaca, Odysseus' wife Penelope and his son Telemachus fight a losing battle against the suitors who have overrun their palace, as the two desperately cling to the idea that Odysseus will one day finally return. In Spider-Man: Brand New Day, it's been four years after the world forgot Peter Parker ever existed, and he swings through New York as Spider-Man full-time with no one left who knows his identity. Stressed induced loneliness cause his Spider-Powers to accelerate and he seeks the help of both Bruce Banner aka The Hulk and Frank Castle aka the Punisher to keep his powers under control and to keep the city safe as a terrifying new force arrives — a threat so powerful and so personal it may be the greatest foe Spider-Man has ever faced. Do these films speak to each other on a deeper level — or are they simply two big summer movies that happened to star the same people? Find out!Watch the vido podcast on Youtube:https://youtu.be/9s-kY8IIGnQ 

Isaac and Juzo review the latest in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Spider-Man: Brand New Day, in a partly spoiler filled discussion. Will director Destin Daniel Cretton rekindle the magic he had in the days of Short Term 12? Will Tom Holland top his performance in The Odyssey?

Message Dan and MikeWe finally sit down to unpack Spider-Man: Brand New Day, the fourth installment in Tom Holland's run as Peter Parker and the first Spidey film from director Destin Daniel Cretton. Picking up four years after No Way Home's spell erased Peter from the world's memory, this is a noticeably darker, more isolated take on the character — Aunt May is gone, his friendships with MJ and Ned are gone, and the arachnid side of his DNA is starting to take over. We dig into how that trauma-driven tone works, and where it doesn't.One of us walks away calling this the weakest of the Tom Holland Spider-Man films, and we're honest about why: a story that feels overcrowded with characters, some shaky CGI work on the Scorpion, and a villain problem that never quite resolves who we're actually supposed to be rooting against. We also talk through the returning cast — Zendaya, Jacob Batalon, Mark Ruffalo, Florence Pugh — plus the newer additions, including Jon Bernthal's Frank Castle, Tramell Tillman's William Mesker, Naomi Watts voicing E.D.I.T.H., and a genuinely strong turn from Sadie Sink as Jean Grey that surprised us both.Along the way we get into the film's stunt work and practical martial arts sequences, the choice to make Peter's webs organic again as a nod to Tobey Maguire's era, and what it means that this film is now closing in on two billion dollars worldwide and threatening box office records held by Avengers: Endgame and Titanic. We also share (in maybe too much detail) the theater experience that colored one of our first viewings, because full transparency matters around here.Whether you loved Brand New Day or walked out with the same reservations we did, we want to hear it. And with Avengers: Doomsday looming and a fifth Spider-Man almost certainly on the way, we start speculating about where this saga goes next.If you're not already following along, you can find us on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and everywhere else podcasts live, and subscribing to the YouTube channel helps a lot more than you'd think.Support the showOh Brother Podcast:Support the Show!

Welcome to Multiverse News, your source for information about all your favorite fictional universes.Marvel Studios appears to have found the leader of its new mutant team, as Deadline reported last week that Heartstopper and Warfare star Kit Connor has landed the role of Scott Summers, better known as Cyclops, in the future MCU X-Men film. Sources say Connor went through much the same process as Samara Weaving, who was attached as Emma Frost the week prior, meeting with Schreier and Marvel president Kevin Feige alongside a group of candidates who tested after the July 4th holiday before the studio settled on him. Neither Marvel nor Connor has confirmed the casting, and the film, written by Beef creator Lee Sung Jin and The Bear co-creator Joanna Calo, still has no release date. Cyclops has been played on screen before by James Marsden and Tye Sheridan, with Marsden set to reprise the role in December's Avengers: Doomsday. Sony and Marvel Studios' Spider-Man: Brand New Day crossed the one-billion-dollar mark overseas in just twelve days of release, making it the second-fastest film ever to reach that number abroad behind Avengers: Endgame. The Destin Daniel Cretton film now stands at $1.67 billion worldwide, split between $654.3 million domestically and $1.013 billion internationally, which makes it the twelfth highest-grossing movie of all time and only the sixteenth ever to clear a billion in foreign markets alone. Universal had a milestone of its own to celebrate, as Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey passed $1.1 billion worldwide to become the highest-grossing film of his career ahead of The Dark Knight Rises, while also becoming the biggest IMAX release ever with $289 million, and it still has China to open on Friday. James Gunn spent part of a Threads session last week putting down one of the most persistent rumors surrounding Matt Reeves' Batman trilogy, telling a fan who asked whether The Batman Part III was being filmed simultaneously with Part II simply, “I can deny.” The theory had gained steam over years of delays, most recently when a redesigned Part II logo appeared to work a Roman numeral III into the artwork, and it offered fans a tidy explanation for why the sequel has taken so long to arrive. In reality, Part II only began principal photography in London in June, and Warner Bros. has already pushed the film from October 2027 to February 18, 2028. Sony and Nintendo's live-action The Legend of Zelda has cast Australian actor Uli Latukefu as Ganondorf under a multi-picture deal, with Severance's Dichen Lachman playing Impa and The Handmaid's Tale's Yvonne Strahovski reported as a queen character. The late Sam Neill also filmed an undisclosed role before his death on July 13, marking one of the final screen performances of his career.Gareth Edwards has exited Universal and Amblin's untitled Jurassic World Rebirth sequel over creative differences, with the studios now searching for a replacement; David Koepp's script is finished and Scarlett Johansson, Mahershala Ali and Jonathan Bailey are all still expected back for a 2027 shoot.A24 released the full trailer for Primetime, the Lance Oppenheim drama that Robert Pattinson produces and stars in as To Catch a Predator host Chris Hansen, in theaters September 25.Lionsgate has confirmed that Michael 2 is targeting a production start toward the end of this year or in early 2027, with the sequel to this year's Michael Jackson biopic aiming for a 2028 release.Lionsgate is also developing a new Leprechaun film written by horror veterans Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan, reviving a franchise that ran eight movies between 1993 and 2018.Nicholas Hoult has been cast in season 2 of HBO's Harry Potter series as Gilderoy Lockhart, a major character in The Chamber of Secrets that was portrayed by Kenneth Branagh in the 2002 film adaptation.

Welcome to Play, Pause, Rewind! The world's greatest media podcast, maybe. This week, we return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe and discuss Spider-Man: Brand New Day. The fourth film in Tom Holland's Spider-Man journey, Brand New Day sees Peter Parker deal with the consequences of wiping the world's memory of him and isolates himself focusing just on crime fighting until the appearance of a new threat. Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, the film stars Tom Holland, Zendaya, Sadie Sink, Jon Bernthal, Jacob Batalon, Tramell Tillman, and more.

Cretton grew up in Hawaii, and says movies expanded his perspective: “That is how I traveled. That is how I was exposed to other cultures. That's how I understand how kids grew up in high school on the mainland,” he tells co-host Tonya Mosley. He explains how his job at a group home for at-risk teens inspired his film Short Term 12, how he relates to Peter Parker's loneliness, and how his difficult relationship with his father helps him with directing.Subscribe to our free weekly newsletter Follow us on Instagram Subscribe to our YouTube channel Check out the Fresh Air ArchivesSupport public media with NPR+ and enjoy perks for over 25 podcasts like this one.

It is the 38th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) and the fourth film in the MCU Spider-Man film series following Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021). Fighting crime full-time as Spider-Man in a world that doesn't remember him - and the pressure of seeing his old friends move on without him - sparks a change in Peter (Tom Holland) he may not have the power to control. But that transformation might also be the only thing that can stop a shocking new threat to the city and those he loves - a powerful villain no one can even see.

This week on Fantastic Forum, we're swinging into a brand new chapter for Spider-Man and traveling back to the world of the Four Nations for an all-new Avatar adventure! First up is Spider-Man: Brand New Day, starring Tom Holland as Peter Parker alongside Zendaya, Jacob Batalon, Jon Bernthal, Mark Ruffalo, Sadie Sink, and Michael Mando. Four years after the events of Spider-Man: No Way Home, Peter has embraced life as a full-time Spider-Man in a world that has forgotten who he is. But a mysterious new threat and an unsettling evolution in Peter's powers could change everything. Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton and written by Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers, we're breaking down the latest chapter of the MCU's Spider-Man saga and asking what this new day means for Peter Parker. Then we turn to Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender, the first feature film from Avatar Studios. Set years after the original animated series, the film follows Aang, voiced by Eric Nam, as he discovers an ancient power that could save his culture from extinction. With Katara, Sokka, Zuko, and Toph by his side, Aang embarks on a global quest to keep that power from falling into the wrong hands and threatening the fragile peace they fought so hard to achieve. Featuring the voices of Jessica Matten, Román Zaragoza, Steven Yeun, and Dionne Quan, this new adventure expands the world of Avatar: The Last Airbender while returning to the characters fans have loved for decades.

Frank, Tim, and Vactor from This Comic Cooks have seen Spider-Man: Brand New Day, and they're bringing you their full review. ⚠️ Full spoilers start around 25:00. We get into where it lands next to No Way Home, why Destin Daniel Cretton's Shang-Chi fight choreography and the PlayStation games are all over the web-swinging, and whether the new cloth suit is the most comic-accurate Spider-Man we've had on screen. Then the gripes: organic web-shooters vs. Peter's science brain, a Jean Grey who might be a little too mean, the Yelena spa scene, and the eternal question: how does a broke kid in New York afford the rent, the flowers, and that many Little Caesars? Plus: a debate about theater-crowd etiquette ("on your left" cheerers vs. pin-drop-silence purists), the Hulk-remembers moment, and a villain wishlist that runs from Hobgoblin to the Jackal.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day (2026) With great power comes great podcasting responsibility… and this week, we web-sling into Spider-Man: Brand New Day, the latest chapter in the ever-expanding adventures of everyone's favourite friendly neighbourhood wall-crawler. Following the reality-bending fallout of No Way Home, Peter Parker is swinging into a genuinely brand-new era, carrying plenty of emotional baggage, mysterious threats, and the sort of comic-book complications that would make even a Daily Bugle editor take a sick day. The film stars Tom Holland, Zendaya, Jacob Batalon, Sadie Sink, Jon Bernthal, Mark Ruffalo, and more, with Destin Daniel Cretton taking the director's chair. Joining the discussion are Jill, Dion, and Quinny, alongside special guest host Ardella, as they attempt the impossible: talking spoiler-free about a Spider-Man movie that Marvel and Sony kept under tighter wraps than Peter Parker's secret identity. For the first half of the episode, we stay firmly in spoiler-free territory, discussing performances, themes, action, and whether the movie sticks the landing. But then, fair warning: the second half swings headfirst into spoiler territory. If you’ve already seen the film, you’ll want to stick around as the team unpacks every twist, surprise, and expected plot-line that did or din’t get played out. Was this Spider-flick amazing, spectacular, sensational, or just another friendly neighbourhood day at the office for Marvel’s favourite web-head? Grab your web-shooters, avoid the spoilers until you’re ready, and tune in to hear what the team thought of one of the most talked-about superhero releases of the year. Official Synopsis “It’s a BRAND NEW DAY for Peter Parker.

Academy Award®-winning composer Michael Giacchino returns to Dolby Creator Talks for his fifth appearance, this time to discuss his latest score for “Spider-Man: Brand New Day.” In this conversation, Giacchino explores how he approached Peter Parker's new emotional reality: One where the character is alone, isolated, and carrying difficult memories no one else shares, by reshaping familiar musical themes, excavating pieces out of the melody, and introducing a dark, synth palette beneath the orchestra. He also reflects on his working relationship with director Destin Daniel Cretton, recording an 85-piece orchestra at Abbey Road, and finding the right balance between the spectacle befitting a Spider-Man movie, and the loneliness at the heart of this new chapter for the beloved superhero."For me, musically, it was... 'do we abandon the theme that we had for three movies and just go with something brand new? So it felt like he's in a wholly new place?' That was my first thought. But the more I tried to do that, I kept thinking, 'well, no, maybe it's not so much about inventing anything new, but it's about taking away from what we already have.' So if I have a full melody written out, what notes can I pull out of that melody, that would represent the pieces of his life that have now gone away?"—Michael Giacchino, Composer, “Spider-Man: Brand New Day”Be sure to check out “Spider-Man: Brand New Day,” now playing in theaters in Dolby Vision® and Dolby Atmos® where available.Please subscribe to Dolby Creator Talks wherever you get your podcasts.You can also check out the video for this episode on YouTube.Learn more about the Dolby Creator Lab and check out Dolby.com.

Taking over from Jon Watts director Destin Daniel Cretton steps into the director's chair and brings the larger than life spectacle of the MCU back down to the ground a little bit as the reset button is hit following the events of 2021's "No Way Home," where those who knew Peter Parker cannot remember him any longer, thus forcing our favorite web-slinger into isolation and depression, which leads to some unexpected changes in his DNA while a new mysterious foe emerges that will have ramifications across the entire MCU.

He gains crazy power and wealth for the next 1000 years. In 1996, Wenwu searches for Ta Lo, a village said to harbor mythical beasts. He travels through a magical forest to the village entrance but is stopped by a guardian, Ying Li. They flirt via fighting and fall in love. They end up having two kids, Shang-Chi & Xialing. In the present day, Shang-Chi works as a parking valet in the States with his best friend Katy. One day, they are attacked on a bus by men who steal a pendant that Li gave to Shang-Chi. We find out that the Ta Lo villagers rejected Wenwu so Li chose to leave with him. Wenwu abandoned his organization and locked away the ten rings. But clearly something's happened! Shang-Chi & Katy go to find Xialing, because they assume it was the Ten Rings that took his pendant and will go after the matching one Xialing has. They find Xialing at a secret fight club which she founded after escaping from Wenwu at 16. The Ten Rings attack the fight club and capture Shang-Chi, Katy, & Xialing. At the Ten Rings' compound, Wenwu uses the pendants to reveal a mystical map leading to Ta Lo. Wenwu explains that he has heard Li calling and believes she has been held captive in Ta Lo behind a sealed gate. He plans to destroy the village unless they release her. But that's not possible because she's dead. When Shang-Chi is seven years old, Li is murdered by Wenwu's enemies, the Iron Gang. Knowing his dad is crazy, they are like nah. We aren't helping you. They escape with the aid of disgraced actor Trevor Slattery and his mystical friend Morris, who guides them through the enchanted forest to Ta Lo. The group meets Li's sister Ying Nan who makes sure they are trained up. Wenwu and the Ten Rings arrive and attack. Wenwu overpowers Shang-Chi, and attacks the Gate he thinks his wife is being held behind. Turns out it's not his wife, it's the Dweller-in-Darkness. Wenwu saves Shang-Chi but is killed by the Dweller-in-Darkness. He gives the rings over to Shang-Chi before he dies. Shang-Chi and company are able to slay the Dweller-in-Darkness. Afterward, Shang-Chi and Katy return to San Francisco where no one believes their story. The sorcerer Wong shows up to get them. In a mid-credits scene, Wong introduces Shang-Chi and Katy to Bruce Banner and Carol Danvers and the group discusses the origins of the rings.
