Ahead of the release of "Spider-Man: Brand New Day", the fourth instalment in Tom Holland's Spider-Man series, Collider has compiled a wishlist of elements fans hope the film delivers, given how far it departs from its predecessors.

The film, directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, is confirmed to feature Scorpion (Michael Mando) after nearly a decade of teasing, alongside a team-up between Peter Parker and Punisher (Jon Bernthal), plus an antagonistic turn from Hulk (Mark Ruffalo). Among the hopes highlighted are:
– A strong opening montage cameoing lesser-known villains such as Boomerang, Tarantula, Beetle and Cardiac
– Substantial screen time exploring the evolving Spider-Man/Punisher dynamic, which Holland has described as a "big brother/little brother rivalry"
– More than a single fight sequence between Spider-Man and Hulk to properly showcase the confrontation
