'You Just Don't Share the Secret' — Marvel Refused to Tell Sadie Sink About Her Spider-Man: Brand New Day Character Until Filming Began

Sink said Marvel cast her without an audition and kept her role secret until she arrived in London, with Tom Holland helping her settle in.

  • 24-Year-Old actress Sadie Sink joined the cast of 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' without an audition, starring opposite actor Tom Holland in the Marvel Studios film.
  • After working with director Destin Daniel Cretton on the 2017 film 'The Glass Castle', Sink secured her role without a traditional audition and did not receive the script until arriving in London.
  • Sink credited Holland for helping her adjust to the franchise's pressure. "He could not have been more welcoming," she said of the co-star and crew.
  • Her role remains a closely guarded secret, keeping her out of all trailers and marketing footage. Internet sleuths speculate she could play Jean Grey, though Sink has not confirmed character details.
  • The film opens in theaters on July 31, marking Sink's debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. She admitted to being surprised by the massive scale of the blockbuster franchise and its fanbase.
