Who is Sadie Sink playing?


After Stranger Things airs its series finale this December, fans can look forward to Sink getting back in front of the camera opposite Tom Holland in the next Spider-Man installment—though she remains tight-lipped about her involvement in the Marvel Cinematic Universe when I pitifully attempt to sneak in a quick question.

Looks like Sadie finally got the cat(s) she was talking about (1, 2):


“My cats are pretty iconic. But I’m biased.”

Why do I feel like everything must points to Felica hardy. Does anyone agree? I wish we can look deeper into clues for the role
Not a lot of clues one way or the other. The fact that it's street level makes me still hope for it, but that's really about it. If her hair color was changed, it would be a big clue.
 
HOBERT: Yeah, it’s just about noon. And you’re in London, right?

SINK: Mm-hmm.

HOBERT: Okay, fun. So it’s like, eight o’clock.

SINK: It’s eight o’clock and it’s so hot. They don’t believe in AC here.

HOBERT: I know, because I just went for the first time and I stayed at my friend’s flat and I had a horrible night’s sleep because it was so hot.

SINK: It’s really intense. Were you playing a show here?

HOBERT: Yes, I was playing a show in London and I had never been out of the country until just this past trip. So it was great, but I think there’s something picturesque about a fan in the room.

SINK: Totally. I’ve been putting ice cubes in a bowl of ice in front of the fan.

Sadie’s in London, where it’s been hot. No talk about what for but we know.

But maybe not and it’s just some type of Charlie Cooper. Hope to find the stunt actor unless there isn’t any and it’s actually just Charlie cooper

Some things to look out for:

Destin had a script credit on Shang-Chi, while it's unknown if he's getting one on Brand New Day after the writers of the first three MCU Spider-Man movies were brought back.

Demet Koc @demetherself | Journalist. Editor-in-Chief: @NexusPointNews: “Hearing Annabelle Adams is the codename(?) for Sadie Sink's character in Spider-Man: Brand New Day.“
Outside the castle, Cumming is part of the Marvel universe in Doomsday — though he admits he doesn’t know what’s happening. “I did the entire film in isolation. Lots of green screen, face replacement. They even gave characters fake names. I don’t know who I was acting with half the time,” he laughs. “I broke the internet by mentioning something once, but honestly, I might have got it wrong.”

Recent past rumors were that Giancarlo Esposito‘s code name on Brave New World was the comic character ‘George Washington Bridge’ and the code name ‘Luke Cage’ (also a comic character) belongs to Chris Evans on the upcoming Doomsday Avengers movie if you believe the original source.
 



Sadie’s personal stylist posted this today (August 22), though exactly how recent it is is anyone’s guess. If she’s in London, are her stylists following her around - are they working on the movie too for her? Etc..

Possible Update:

Current gossip is Holland is in Budapest where Dune 3 (w/ Zendaya) is being filmed while Sadie has been in New York.

jacketisyours/elena: “the entire stranger things cast just walked by me” “finn, sadie, gaten and someone else who i didn’t quite see but sadie’s outfit was adorable” (august 22)

Sadie Sink Brasil: “Sadie Sink, Gaten Matarazzo, and Finn Wolfhard were reportedly seen together last night in New York, as the red-haired stylist posted yesterday that she was at a confidential shoot, they are likely filming promotional content for Stranger Things 5.”

Not Brand New Day-branded (it includes Spider-Verse/comic characters) but watch the licensing space.

BLACK CAT

Growing up as the daughter of a world-famous cat burglar, Felicia Hardy is determined to be even better than he was. Donning a black costume and mask, she becomes the Black Cat and seeks to steal from the world to replace what was taken from her.

Here is the final version of Black Cat's card, which is also my preview card!
The "nine lives" gag is still there, the stealing opponent's cards is there, but the focus on artifacts, though flavorful, was eventually deemed too narrow. The final card can steal anything. Two anythings, even! Felicia has always been a favorite character of mine (I have her first comic appearance signed by her creators), and I think we did her justice! (Maybe not justice … This is less-heroic Felicia after all. Hmm … maybe "we did her 'Robin Hood-style crime'!")

Big year for Black Cat in the comics and publishing within some of the various recent and upcoming omnibuses. She was featured again on the most recent (August 15) episode of Spidey and his Amazing Friends, and the character was included in a mobile video game event for the show a couple of months ago.

To use pro-wrestling parlance, this is what's known as giving a character/performer an elevation above what they were doing before, or a 'push'.

I did noticed how it’s weird I’ve been seeing a lot of black cat thrown around this year…
 
Maybe it might mean something, maybe they really are pushing black cat because they might make adaptation of her soon

Sony did plan to make a movie for her with Silver Sabre. Her live action appearance is way overdue.
 
Wanna bet it's gonna be some original non-powered character? Mr. Delmar's daughter or something like that.
 
Sadie has been at the Venice Film Festival every year since 2022 - for The Whale movie and for Armani, the latter which sponsors the event. Will she attend this year or will it be a skip year while the Spider-Man movie and Strangers Things promo work is underway? TBD.

The 82nd annual Venice International Film Festival will be held from 27 August to 6 September 2025, at Venice Lido in Italy.





 
I didn’t have to wait long to follow-up my last post:


EXCLUSIVE: Armani Beauty to Set Cinema Club at 2025 Venice Film Festival
The Giorgio Armani Cinema Club with Cate Blanchett, Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Sadie Sink among its attendees is only one of the activations the brand has planned as official beauty sponsor of the international event kicking off this week.”
 
Thursday:

Sadie has arrived in Venice today with her brother for the film festival, again wearing her 'Sexy Villain' camouflage hat while otherwise trying to be incognito while a deluge of photographers follow her. She was spotted also wearing it at the beginning of the month (or at least that's when the fan social media account posted the video before deleting it by request) in NYC while in transit.

I actually think it would be cool to have a red-headed Felicia Hardy who wears a wig as Black Cat, fwiw.

Felicia has worn wigs as disguises and used aliases before. Here's two examples.

Black Cat as Ashley Moon in TASM #612 (2009).

Felicia Hardy as Elodie Gros in Black Cat #11 (2020).
