\n The Marvel Studios film shakes things up with the addition of Marvin Jones III as Tombstone.\n <\/p>\n
While production is currently paused for Spider-Man: Brand New Day<\/a>, Sony Pictures is making sure to let us know that the show\u2019s not stopping with even more casting announcements<\/a>.<\/p>\n Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse<\/a> villain Tombstone is making his way to Spider-Man: Brand New Day, as Deadline<\/a> reports that Marvin Jones III (Black Lightning) will be reprising the animated role in live-action. Deadline further reports that Jones will purportedly return to voice Tombstone once more in the upcoming Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse, having skipped the middle entry in the trilogy, 2023\u2019s Across the Spider-Verse.<\/p>\n One of many crime bosses in Spider-Man\u2019s rogues gallery, Tombstone is usually depicted as an imposing Black person with albinism; he has sharp chompers and granite-like skin that\u2019s hard to cut. The creation, by writer Gerry Conway and artist Alex Saviuk, first made his Marvel Comics debut in Web of Spider-Man #36 in March 1988, and has been a staple of Spidey\u2019s criminal underworld ever since.<\/p>\n Given Tombstone\u2019s recent appearance in the Spider-Verse films, there\u2019s no doubt going to be a lot of speculation that Brand New Day could potentially give us the MCU\u2019s own take on Miles. The recent casting of Liza Col\u00f3n-Zayas (The Bear) and Trammel Tillman (Severance) also has left fans wondering if the Morales family in some way will be a presence, and of course, Miles\u2019 uncle Aaron already appeared in\u00a0Spider-Man Homecoming, played by Donald Glover.<\/p>\n Whether or not we see Miles or any other Spidey-sona in Brand New Day, Jones is joining a stacked cast of familiar faces that includes Jon Bernthal as the Punisher, Mark Ruffalo as the Hulk, and Michael Mando returning as\u00a0Homecoming\u2018s version of Scorpion.<\/p>\n Despite its current production delay,\u00a0Spider-Man: Brand New Day is still currently set to release July 31, 2026.<\/p>\n Want more io9 news?
