Spider-Man: Brand New Day Trailer May Have Spoiled Daredevil: Born Again Season 2

Spider-Man: Brand New Day Trailer May Have Spoiled Daredevil: Born Again Season 2

The newly released Spider-Man: Brand New Day trailer may have just spoiled a major piece of Daredevil: Born Again Season 2.

A shot from the trailer appears to show Spider-Man receiving the key to New York City, and the person presenting it looks to be Liza Colón-Zayas.

The scene has sparked instant speculation because it seems like she could be playing the mayor of NYC in the movie.

That stands out for an obvious reason. Wilson Fisk is currently the mayor of New York in Daredevil: Born Again, and Marvel says Season 2 premieres March 24 on Disney+. Meanwhile, Spider-Man: Brand New Day hits theaters July 31, 2026.

Spider-Man Trailer Raises A Big Fisk Question

The trailer footage shows Spider-Man being honored in what looks like an official city ceremony. If Liza Colón-Zayas is indeed playing the mayor, that could mean Fisk is no longer in office by the time Brand New Day takes place.

Marvel and Sony have not officially identified her role. Deadline only previously confirmed that Colón-Zayas joined the cast of Spider-Man: Brand New Day without naming who she plays.

Still, based on the footage, the theory is easy to understand. If Spider-Man is getting the key to the city from a different mayor, then Fisk may be finished as New York’s top political power by the end of Daredevil: Born Again Season 2.
