Stranger Things' Sadie Sink Insists Jean Grey X-Men Reports Are 'News to Me,' but Admits 'It's an Awesome Rumor'
Earlier this month, reports surfaced suggesting Sadie Sink, known for her role as Max Mayfield in Stranger Things, is set to star alongside Tom Holland in Spider-Man 4. Deadline reported Sink, who made her film debut in the 2016 film Chuck, would appear in the upcoming MCU movie, slated to begin filming later this year and release on July 31, 2026.
While Marvel and Sony remained tight-lipped, Deadline speculated Sink might portray either Jean Grey from the X-Men or another popular red-headed Spider-Man character. IGN subsequently explored various Marvel characters Sink could potentially play in Spider-Man 4 and beyond within the MCU.
AnswerSee ResultsIn a recent interview with Josh Horowitz, Sink remained elusive regarding the Jean Grey speculation, calling the rumor "awesome" but adding, "This is news to me." She confirmed she hadn't spoken to Kevin Feige or any Marvel representatives about the role, stating simply, "I have nothing to say about this," while acknowledging Jean Grey as "a great character." When asked about the commitment of playing an MCU character long-term, she responded enthusiastically, "I think that’s super exciting." The interview concluded with Sink clearly preferring to keep her involvement under wraps. Horowitz suggested revisiting the topic in the future once any official confirmation arrives.

The return of Deadpool, Wolverine, and potentially Channing Tatum as Gambit remains a significant question. Feige's comments strongly suggest Phase 7 will be heavily focused on the X-Men. It's also worth noting Storm's appearance in What If...? Season 3, marking her MCU debut. Furthermore, Marvel added three untitled movie projects to their 2028 release schedule, fueling speculation about a dedicated X-Men film.
