Marvel Podcast From TV Podcast Industries

A billion dollars in the bank already and Spider-Man Brand New Day is already one of the biggest hits of 2026 and rightly so. Our full team are finally back to discuss all of this best moments from this years Marvel and Sony collaboration. Make sure you've watched the movie before you jump into our fully spoiler filled chat.
Synopsis for our Spider-Man Brand New Day Movie Review
Directed by Destin Daniel Cretin.
Written by: Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers.
Based on characters by - Steve Ditko and Stan Lee
Four years after Dr. Strange erased Peter Parker from everyone’s memory, Peter has completely committed himself to being Spider-Man. He visits Aunt May’s grave, secretly checks in on Ned Leeds and MJ at MIT, and spends every other waking hour fighting crime across New York. When a tank goes on a rampage, Spider-Man first has to stop vigilante Frank Castle before stopping the tank. Inside, Peter finds a confused woman and something much stranger: an unseen entity that jumps from body to body inside the Department of Damage Control, eventually freeing Mac Gargan, aka The Scorpion. Yelena Bolova tells Peter this isn’t ordinary mind control. It's small potatoes but the attacks are connected to something called “V-Max.”
Stranger things get even more complicated when Ned returns to New York. Peter secretly follows him to a house-warming party, where he also sees MJ — now with another boyfriend. The sight of her sends Peter spiralling, and soon his own spider DNA begins to mutate. With help from Dr. Bruce Banner, Peter manages to create a device to suppress the changes. But when Spider-Man finally tracks the entity to The Scorpion, it possesses MJ and threatens to kill her. Peter discovers the truth: the entity is actually the mutant Jean Grey, who is searching Damage Control for V-Max. Jean takes control of the Hulk, leading to a massive fight with Spider-Man and Frank Castle. They eventually separate Jean from Hulk, but something goes horribly wrong — No Banner, No girl, only Hulk!
Peter manages to calm Hulk and capture Jean, but she mentions the name "Sarah" before passing out. With help from MJ and Yelena, Peter discovers that Sarah is Jean’s missing sister, who was experimented on by Damage Control and Director Metzger. And the mysterious V-Max? It was nothing more than words written on an air-conditioning unit in the room where Sarah died. When Jean learns the truth, her grief explodes into rage, and she takes control of a kilometre of New York and its citizens. Peter fights his way through mind-controlled Hand ninjas to reach her, then allows Jean inside his mind. There, through memories of Aunt May, Peter convinces Jean that she is loved and promises to help her.
But before he can save her, Frank Castle takes a sniper shot at Jean. Peter uses his new abilities to get Jean out of the way — and takes the bullet himself. Jean keeps him alive long enough for the doctors at Metro-General Hospital to save him. When Peter wakes up, Frank helps him escape as New York celebrates Spider-Man as a hero. Peter returns to his anonymous life, until he runs into Ned at a local bodega. This time, Peter introduces himself. He uses their old handshake, and Ned immediately knows how to complete it. For just a moment, it seems like his oldest friend might remember him after all.

Episode Synopsis:
Silvermane is ready to take his fight with Mayor Morris to the streets. He instructs Megawatt and Flint Marko to attack Morris' campaign office and steal his money as Lonnie retrieves Silvermane's confiscated booze from the police.
In an early house in the city Ben drowns his sorrows over Cat's betrayal and beats up a group of dock workers who criticised the aging Spider. 
After some encouragement from Robbie to help the other meta humans, Ben prepares doses of the antidote to cure all of them and plans to use it on himself afterwards. 
As the Spider struggles against Lincoln and the corrupt police officers due to previously overusing his webbing at the bar fight, Robbie manages to inject the cure in Lincoln through his eye and the two help him evade the police officers. 
While Ben recovers from the fight, Lincoln thanks the two for helping him, encourages Robbie to find another way to report outside of the Daily Bugle, and leaves the city with his mother. 
Both Silvermane and Morris find out that Tombstone has been cured. They each give orders to bring Ben to them so they can contact The Spider.

Ogden comes to Ben Reilly's apartment to plead with him to stop Robbie Robertson from publishing his story on Dr. Fabor’s experiments. 
He reveals that he served in the war as well, but his mutation has rapidly aged him. When Ben refuses to cooperate, he drugs him to forcibly bring him to Faber's lab. 
Dr. Faber reveals that Ogden is her son and she's determined to find a cure for the metahumans to help him. While the blood tests on Ben reveal nothing of note Dr Faber begins examining Ben's organs. 
During her operation, Ben has nightmares about the procedures and changes he endured after the spider bite. 
After analysing the samples from Ben’s liver Dr. Faber is able to develop a cure and restores Ogden to his true age. She plans to kill Ben so they can cover their tracks, now that Robbie’s article has been published, but Ogden allows him to escape to repay his services. 
Meanwhile Silvermane and his men invade the facility to find more metahumans to join their ranks. After seeing other mutated soldiers that Faber failed to save and getting shot at by Ogden, Dirk Leyden kills Faber and Ogden. As the resulting fire blows up the lab, Ben manages to evade notice by Silvermane, Flint, Dirk and Lonnie and escapes the laboratory with Faber’s antidote in his possession.

Episode Synopsis:
After Cat Hardy learns that Ben Reilly is The Spider he takes her on a proper date to Millie's Diner. Ben reveals that he got his powers fifteen years earlier during the final days of World War I. 
After discovering German experiments on POWs he was liberating, he was bitten by a mutated half-spider prisoner. From that day on Ben had arachnid DNA.
Armed with an unmissable exclusive story about The Spider’s battle with the electric powered Dirk Leyden, Robbie Robertson reclaims his job at the Daily Bugle. 
He and Janet discover every metahuman had been treated by the same physician Dr. Alethea Faber before developing powers. 
While Robbie interrogates Dr. Faber and her secretary Ogden, The Spider steals medical files proving Faber tried to cure the metahumans but instead aggravated their conditions, and now they will all die if they keep using their powers. 
Meanwhile Flint Marko, now Silvermane's right-hand man, recruits Lonnie Lincoln and together they free Dirk Leyden from prison to join them. 
Now armed with his super powered muscle men, Silvermane warns Ben to keep the Spider out of his conflict with Mayor Morris. 
Worried for their lives, Ben asks Cat to leave the city with him and she agrees, but her former partner Flint Marko confronts her over hiring the fire powered Addison to kill Silvermane without telling him. 
Lincoln informs Cat that Faber believes seeing the Spider could help her find a cure, leading Cat to reveal Ben's secret to Dr Faber and Ogden.
