In the tangled webs of Marvel, there is a new player in the cast of Spider-Man Brand New Day, and it’s all about Tramell Tilman. The Serverance star swings into the cast of Spider-Man: Brand New Day, and Marvel fans’ spider senses are going off!
Tillman is best known for his role as the unsettlingly calm role as Seth Milchick in Apple TV’s Severance, and he is bringing his talents from the eerie halls of Lumon Industries straight into New York City — alongside Tom Holland’s Peter Parker. While Marvel is gatekeeping his role, the internet is always ready to cast their wild theories and speculations.
Who Could He Be Playing?
This is the million-dollar question that fans have been asking. Some fans are convinced that Tillman could be MCU’s Norman Osborn, ushering in as the Green Goblin for a fresh MCU twist.
Others are saying that he could be Tombstone (Lonnie Lincoln), the heavy-hitting mob boss from Spidey’s rogues’ gallery. Fans also speculate that he could show up as Jefferson Davis, Miles Morales’ father, which could set the stage for Miles’ MCU debut.
Why Does This Casting Matter?
Tilman isn’t just another name on the call sheet. His performance in Severance showed that he can bring depth, charisma, and the perfect amount of menacing qualities. This all blends well for a Spider-Man villain or mentor figure. With his rising Hollywood profile and recent blockbuster roles, Marvel clearly sees him as a player to keep around.
Plus, Brand New Day already has a stacked cast: John Bernthal (Punisher), Mark Ruffalo (Hulk), Zendaya (MJ), Jacob Batalon (Ned Leeds), Sadie Sink, and more. Throwing Tillman into the mix just created one of the most exciting Marvel movies in years.
What We Know About the Movie
Brand New Day is filming in Glasgow, Scotland, with set photos revealing Holland’s new comic book-accurate Spider-Man suit. The Movie is directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, known for directing Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. The script is written by MCU veterans Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers. Marvel has described the film as a “fresh start” for Peter Parker after the events of No Way Home. Fans can expect a story that shakes things up while staying true to Spidey’s Roots.
Final Web-Swing
Whether Tramell Tillman ends up taunting Spidey as the Green Goblin, busting skulls as Tombstone, or bringing heart as Jefferson Davis. One thing’s clear for sure: his addition has injected new excitement into an already-hyped project.
