Does Spider-Man: Brand New Day have a post-credit scene?

2026 · Destin Daniel Cretton · 144 min

The answer

Yes — 1 post-credit scene

One scene, and it waits until the very end of the credits. There is no mid-credits stinger at all, breaking the two-scene pattern of the previous MCU Spider-Man films. No cast member appears in it: Ned Leeds's Spidey Tracker registers a fresh Spider-Man sighting, the map pans out past the Earth and the Moon, and a Spider-Man icon settles alone in open space. Then a card reads "Spider-Man will return" — with no film named.

What actually happens

One scene, and it waits until the very end of the credits. There is no mid-credits stinger at all — Den of Geek records "the typical MCU mid-credits gag being curiously omitted here" — and that absence is the real surprise, because Homecoming, Far From Home and No Way Home each shipped with two. The audiences who stood up when the names stopped scrolling were following a pattern this film quietly broke.

Nobody from the cast appears. Den of Geek puts it flatly: "the final shot of the film is not of Holland, Batalon, or Zendaya… It's of that Spidey tracker screen picking up a signal for a Spider-Man in space." The device is Ned Leeds's Spider-Man tracker — TheWrap names it the Spidey Tracker and describes an app that locates Spider-Man from reported sightings, with the scene registering a new one. The map then pans outward: Forbes describes it going "past Earth and the Moon into space, with a Spidey icon in the middle of the blackness," and Den of Geek places the signal past the orbit of the moon. Then the card: Spider-Man will return. No title, no date.

For a scene with no dialogue and no cast, the pointing is unusually specific. Off-world is not where this Peter Parker has ever operated; Brand New Day is the most street-level film of the run by a wide margin. Forbes reads the geography as Avengers: Secret Wars, dated December 17, 2027, on the grounds that much of it plays out on Battleworld — "stitched-together worlds that would occupy some point in space" — and the black symbiote suit Spider-Man is best known for originates in exactly that comics story. Avengers: Doomsday is the alternative, and Den of Geek notes the returning card resembles the Doomsday announcement cards; against it, Tom Holland was never named in Doomsday's enormous cast reveal. Nobody attached to the film has confirmed either, so treat both as readings rather than answers.

The other reading, which the film gives you no way to rule out, is that the marker in space is not this Peter at all. What the scene actually shows is an icon on a screen — no face, no voice, no costume. Refusing to name the next film is the whole point of the card, and it works.
