Moreover, fans quickly took to social media to share their thoughts, fueling even more discussions. Consequently, the AI image became a trending topic, highlighting how digital content can influence Marvel fandom.
Fan Reactions to the Spider-Woman AI Image
On August 16, 2025, an X (formerly Twitter) user shared the AI-generated image of Sink in a Spider-Woman costume, noting,
“Thank god this picture of Sadie Sink is fake.”
The post quickly gained over 126.5K views, and as a result, it drew a wide variety of reactions from fans across social media.
Mixed Responses from Fans
Some fans were frustrated by the misleading post:
“Why do people always do this, get us excited for no reason?”
Others criticized the design, comparing it to a “Power Ranger” or saying,
“She looks trash in this fr.”
A few defended the image, with one fan noting, “Well, it ain’t bad tbh,” while another added,
“What??? Is this fake?? It’s too real, just the height is a little bit off.”
These varied reactions highlight how AI-generated content can easily blur the line between reality and fan speculation.
Speculation About Sink’s Marvel Role
Despite the image being fake, speculation about Sink’s potential role in Spider-Man: Brand New Day continues to circulate online. Moreover, set photos reportedly show Sink with blonde hair, which has led some fans to suspect she could play Gwen Stacy. Additionally, Nexus Point News editor-in-chief Demet stated,
“She’s not Gwen, I am like 95% sure.”
Other reports suggest her character may go by the codename “Annabelle Adams,” potentially linked to the Clone Saga. A Reddit theory proposed that Sink could portray Ultimate Jessica Drew, a female clone of Peter Parker, tied to Kaine Parker and the Jackal storyline. While none of these claims have been confirmed, fans remain eager for official announcements.
Spider-Woman in Spider-Man: Brand New Day
Currently filming in Glasgow, Spider-Man: Brand New Day will see Tom Holland and Zendaya reprising their roles as Spider-Man and MJ. Moreover, Marvel has not officially revealed Sadie Sink’s character, leaving fans to speculate. Consequently, the film is highly anticipated and is slated for a U.S. release on July 31, 2026.
