Who is Sadie Sink playing?

Tony-Nominated Sadie Sink Talks ‘John Proctor Is The Villain’, ‘Stranger Things’ And Joining The Marvel Universe – Deadline Q&A

Deadline's Q&A with the Tony-nominated actress Sadie Sink.

deadline.com

DEADLINE: When you first read it, did you have a character in mind that you wanted to do, or was it specifically pitched to you with a character?

SINK: It was presented to me like, have her look at Shelby or Raelynn and see who she responds to. Immediately I was, okay I think I’m a Shelby. Every character is so well-rounded which is why this play works so well, but something about Shelby, like she really is the Abigail track of this play in terms of its parallels to The Crucible. I just thought she was incredibly complex for obvious reasons that you come to learn in the show but I was really driven to her humor as well. She’s so witty and quick and has a lot of good in her but also is carrying so much fire within her as well.

DEADLINE: You said at the beginning of this conversation that Broadway actors have to be so athletic. What did you do to prepare for this role both physically and emotionally, because there’s a scene at the end that requires a lot of physical stamina, and emotionally because of the revelations your character makes?

SINK: In terms of the physical aspects of it, I love when a role requires a lot of physicality, whether it’s like stunt work in film and TV. I just think it’s such a tool when you’re going all out physically. I’ve been training a lot and just keeping up my physical strength, just making sure my body is strong and nourished. I feel like I’m in the best shape of my life right now because of it.

DEADLINE: And I have to ask about SpiderMan: Brand New Day. There are lots of rumors online about what character you’ll be playing. Are you ready to say anything yet?

SINK: No. I see a lot of rumors too. They’ve been really cool to read. I love the Marvel Universe. I mean they’re awesome rumors.

Sadie’s character Shelby in her new play also has a mysterious (and grim) past that is revealed towards the end.

As noted above, she has in the past noted her love of stunts and physicality in roles. She’s said she likes tough facade, dark, and angsty roles.

The Stranger Things actress comes into her own in the Netflix slasher trilogy.

“Ziggy puts on this tough, aggressive front, but I think at the core she’s just young and insecure, and ultimately wants to feel understood,” Sink says thoughtfully. “You get to see more of these true colours as the movie unfolds […] the root of all that anger and intensity. She’s used the whole Shadysider curse as a way to explain how certain things in her life have turned out.”

“Max and Ziggy are both strong, independent and slightly aggressive female characters,” Sink explains, “but the main difference is that Ziggy wants to be treated like a grown-up, whereas Max has more innocence. Ziggy feels misunderstood and like no one takes her seriously, which causes her to lash out. It was fun to play a role like that for the first time.”

The best part of filming Fear Street, though, were the stunts – most of which Sink carried out herself. “I loved throwing myself into that, getting all scraped up and bruised,” she says, reliving the excitement of the experience. “It’d be late and we’d be doing so much stunt work, and I’d go into my trailer at the end of the day with a huge smile on my face because I was just so happy to be there. I had a blast.”

I would prefer if she's playing Gwen Stacy.

 

[Spider-Fan83]

tho, I would like to see Gwen... I don't see her as a Gwen

She recruits Peter to save Miles in Beyond the Spider-verse which leads to Miles entering the live action world.

Originally making its Broadway debut in March of this year, John Proctor Is the Villain has now extended its run by two-weeks, rounding out its tenure at the Booth Theatre on July 13 and giving dedicated theater fans some extra time to reserve their tickets for the praised production.

There's been contradictory reports as to whether SM:BND would start filming in July or August. Actors also have to prep (reading, stunt work, etc.) before they start on a movie.

They are shooting until fall, so there would be plenty of time.

 

[BobJM]

I suspect she’s playing Carlie Cooper, and the other female they’re casting is Yuri / Jean DeWolff.

I just think they’re looking at Dan Slott’s run here… I wouldn’t be surprised if we see Alchemax.

With a resume full of sci-fi thrillers, slasher films and dramas, Sink specifically seeks out roles that differ from her own personality. “Because I’m a pretty happy person, I’ve always been drawn to roles that carry a lot of darkness, or trauma,” she says.

Jeff Sneider (@TheInSneider) on the Meet The Movie Press (25:54) show today said he's the one that created the fake/imposter @daisyridley twitter account back on April 29, 2014. I remember he tweeted a while back to ask Twitter/Lucasfilm what happened to it. It was taken away from him.

Gwen Stacy is the best option out of the names being brought up. MJ is the Mary Jane of the Mcu. We still don't have a Gwen.

Mayday is just no no.

[RokMeAmadeus]

I just think it's weird to keep casting redheads as Gwen instead of... the obvious, but oh well I guess

 

[TheVileOne]

I know right? Jessie Wynter is right there.

 

[Scarlet Spider]

I just think it's weird to keep casting redheads as Gwen instead of... the obvious, but oh well I guess

Fun fact. Emma Stone is a natural blonde.

 

[psylockolussus]

Sadie Sink is probably going to be Spider-Gwen eventually if she's Gwen, to really differentiate from the previous Gwens in live action movies.

 

[Lily Adler]

Fun fact. Emma Stone is a natural blonde.

And played a Hawaiian.

 

[Spider-Fan83]

I just think it's weird to keep casting redheads as Gwen instead of... the obvious, but oh well I guess

we also haven't had a natural redhead as MJ

Josh Horowitz: Looking ahead...after [doing your play] John Proctor [Is The Villain]...if the internet is to be believed, you are already [cast as] Jean Grey...
Sadie Sink: <laughs>
Josh: ...in X-men. I'm sure people have been asking you about this.
Sadie: <nods> Yes.
Josh: If I'm a betting man, should I put any money on this?
Sadie: <mouth ajar, considering response>
Josh: Where are we at, Sadie?
Sadie: This is news to me! <hand gestures>
Josh: This is news to you?
Sadie: This is news to me! <hand gestures>
Josh: Really?
Sadie: <nods> Yes.
Josh: You never met...you never talked to a Kevin Feige or Marvel person about this character?
Sadie: <shakes head> No, I can't...no, I have nothing to say about this.
Josh: <laughs>
Sadie: <hand gestures> The rumors are really cool though.
Josh: It's a nice rumor.
Sadie: <hand gesture> It's an awesome rumor.
Josh: Do you...I assume you know that character?
Sadie: <nods> Yeah I know the character. Yeah.
Josh: It's a good character.
Sadie: It's a great character.
Josh: <laughs>
Sadie: So that was cool to read. <laughs>
Josh: Does the idea...if something like that or something similar to that...I mean that's a commitment also.
Sadie: <nods> Yeah, yeah.
Josh: I mean you sign on to be Jean Grey, you're on and off for the next ten years of your life doing that.
Sadie: <hand gesture> Exactly.
Josh: Is that a consideration? Is that something that's intriguing [or] exciting for you at this juncture in your career?
Sadie: I think that's super exciting. Um, yeah. <hand gestures and shrug>
Josh: Mmmm...we were so...we had a vibe going and then suddenly...
Sadie: I know.
Josh: ...it's interesting.
Sadie: Ah.
Josh: Just interesting.
Sadie: <laughs>
Josh: All I'm gonna say is I'm gonna go back to this tape...
Sadie: Okay... <nods>
Josh: ...and I'm gonna decide if we're friends or not based on if you're lying to me.
Sadie: We're friends. <hand gestures> We are friends.
Josh: Okay.
Sadie: <laughs>

MTV: "Jean Grey or Gwen Stacy? @SadieSink's lips are *sealed* at the #TonyAwards with @joshuahorowitz "

Josh Horowitz: We talked last time a little bit about Marvel. You were very cagey (x2).
Sadie Sink: <nods> Yes.
Josh: But it's not Jean Grey [you're playing in Spider-Man] I hear.
Sadie: <laughs>
Josh: Now I'm hearing Gwen Stacy.
Sadie: Are you? <shakes head>
Josh: I was so close. What do you say to my theory?
Sadie: I still say nothing. <hand gestures> We're at the Tony Awards. Let's enjoy it! <smiles>

She was nominated for an award but lost to Sarah Snook.

Horowitz just pesters actors whose roles haven't been announced or are doubted in interviews for over a decade now based on what he's read online.

 

[Scarlet Spider]

Let's be real. No one knows who she's playing. She's been rumored as everyone. When we finally do know, someone will stupidly claim, they called it.

 

[psylockolussus]

I just don't know why would Marvel Studios choose Mayday over Gwen. Or Gwen over someone left field. We haven't seen Gwen in live action since 2014.

 

[Spider-Fan83]

we've also never seen a live action Mayday... or any number of left field characters

we've had 2 different takes on Gwen, yes... but, not Spider-Gwen, so, at least that'd be new

don't really get Jean being introduced in a Spider-man movie
(I can understand wanting to start incorporating mutants more in the MCU in general)

if any mutant I'd say Firestar, maybe

but, Idk that even fulfills the Sony/MCU crossover contract requirements, isn't the idea to use a known already established main MCU character to boost rating...

so, I'd guess she is a Spider-man character (someone that falls under their copyright that the MCU can't normally use) but, that would mean she can only appear in future Spider-man movies...

that'd depend if they want her character to be a reoccurring character across the MCU

 

[psylockolussus]

Gwen is a major Spider-Man character. I really don't know Mayday Parker.
