Sadie Sink in Spider-Man Brand New Day's leaked trailer
Spider-Man Brand New Day's trailer allegedly leaked and spread like wildfire on the internet, on December 17. Though the video is a screengarb from a desktop, and not much is clearly visible, the audio of both Tom and Sadie is pretty clear.While Tom gives a monologue where he's reminding the world about his identity, in one part of the clip, Sadie's voice suggests her character is warning Peter Parker against coming in her way of things.Soon after the trailer leaked, fans started guessing what Sadie could actually be portraying. And the most discussed name among netizens came forward was that of Shathra.
What can we guess about Sadie's character?
Sadie's character says, "You're a mess, Spider-Man. Don't get in my way. Otherwise, it won't just be your friends who don't remember who Peter Parker is." This is contrasting with earlier speculation that she might play a traditional ally or love interest. She doesn't spot any visible red hair, which debunks theories that she might be playing Gwen Stacy, Jean Grey, or Mayday Parker.
Who is Shathra?
Marvel fans quickly assumed that she plays Shathra. In Marvel comic books, she's a rival or an antagonist opposite Peter Parker. Though, the accidental reveal has left many digging more about Shathra.As per reports, Shathra is a lesser-known but dangerous Marvel villain. She is a cosmic spider-predator and shapeshifter tied deeply to Spider-Man lore. As per the comic books, she has the power to impersonate allies or familiar faces before revealing her monstrous true form.Some fans even recalled that Shathra is a Wasp-Goddess that feeds on Spider-Totem energy, corrupting and possessing her victims to increase her own power.
What does Sadie's character mean to SpiderMan?
This brings up a crucial point that Shathra has no fixed appearance. She can easily change her physical traits, hair color and look to align as per her needs. This is further proved by what we hear in the trailer.
What does Shathra mean to MCU?
A cosmic spider-predator like Shathra, fans believe could act as the bridge between Peter's personal struggles and the multiversal chaos that would occur between
Avengers: Doomsday and lead us to
Avengers: Secret Wars. Hence, it also justifies Marvel's expected plan of not having Spider-Man appear in
Doomsday, instead making him a crucial part of
Secret Wars.
