Marvel May Revive Street-Level Daredevil Crossover in ‘Spider-Man 5’

As a lifelong Marvel fan who has seen my fair share of ups and downs, I must say I’m genuinely thrilled about this potential Spider-Man and Daredevil crossover! The idea of these two iconic heroes teaming up to take on the Kingpin in a gritty, street-level narrative is something that has been long overdue.


There’s chatter suggesting that Marvel Studios hasn’t abandoned the idea of a joint appearance between Spider-Man and Daredevil.

Initially conceived for Spider-Man 4, the plan was to bring together Spider-Man and Daredevil in a joint mission against the infamous Kingpin, who is now serving as the Mayor of New York City.

Instead, this collaboration was intended to present a gritty, urban tale, centering around their struggle against urban crime.

Regrettably, the Hollywood strikes last year caused some complications with the original plans. Now, it appears that Spider-Man 4 will be integrated into a broader storyline about the Multiverse, positioned between two significant Avengers films – ‘Avengers: Doomsday’ and ‘Avengers: Secret Wars.’

This change indicates a transition towards a broader, higher-risk narrative, departing from the initial idea based on everyday life.

It appears that Marvel could be returning to the street-level theme in Spider-Man 5, as suggested by Alex Perez from The Cosmic Circus. He indicates that the relationships among Spider-Man, Daredevil, and Kingpin may undergo significant change.

It’s not hard to see why some folks could be apprehensive about Spider-Man 5, given the complexities of the multiverse and the symbiote. However, consider the possibility that Spider-Man 5 might offer a tantalizing blend of these elements.

In a more straightforward manner, the kingpin, serving as the city’s mayor, focuses on undermining vigilantes, subtly promoting policies that benefit his illicit businesses in secret.

In the storyline, their connection is that Kingpin targets Spider-Man, as he aims to eradicate all vigilantes within New York City while serving as Mayor. This crackdown serves a dual purpose: it boosts his illegal operations. The narrative unfolds in the “Born Again” arc but extends beyond the events of “Secret Wars.

The plotline for ‘Daredevil: Born Again’ season two, streaming soon on Disney+, won’t just be confined to that series. Instead, it will also delve deeper into events following ‘Secret Wars.’

Actor Tom Holland, who plays Spider-Man, shared his enthusiasm regarding the future of the Marvel series.

In a recent podcast, he shared his enthusiasm about the script, which he read with co-star Zendaya.

As an ardent admirer, I can’t help but echo Holland’s excitement about the script’s immense potential. I’m eagerly looking forward to breathing life into this project, acknowledging that there are a few intricate details we need to address first before we move forward.

Wow, I can hardly contain my excitement! It’s officially confirmed that the next Spider-Man adventure, Spider-Man 4, will grace our screens on July 26, 2026. Destin Daniel Cretton has been tapped to direct this epic tale, while Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers have crafted the script. Can’t wait to swing into action with our friendly neighborhood Spidey once again!

Featuring Tom Hardy as Eddie Brock (and potentially other actors such as Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield), this movie is expected to deliver a complex, many-layered storyline that could significantly alter the way Spider-Man operates within the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
