SPOILER ALERT: If you haven’t seen the film yet, crawl away before you get caught on the web of fan theories.
Spider-Man: Brand New Day post-credits scene explained
Unlike several recent Marvel films, Spider-Man: Brand New Day does not feature a mid-credits scene. Instead, there is a brief sequence at the very end of the credits.
The scene focusses on Ned Leeds' (Jacob Batalon) Spider-Tracker app. Ned had earlier created the tracker to help identify Spider-Man. This time, the app detects a new sighting of the superhero, initially showing his location as Queens.
The display then zooms out, moving beyond Queens and Earth and into outer space. The tracker glitches twice before displaying “location found” alongside a point apparently located away from the planet.
The scene ends with the words “SPIDER-MAN WILL RETURN” appearing on screen before the image cuts to black.
There is no dialogue, cameo or appearance by Peter Parker in the sequence, leaving plenty of room for speculation about where the story could be heading next.
Is Spider-Man going to appear in Avengers: Doomsday?
The post-credits scene does not explicitly confirm that Holland's Spider-Man will appear in Avengers: Doomsday. However, its reference to Peter's location being somewhere beyond Earth has led fans to connect it with Marvel's wider multiverse storyline.
One of the more popular theories involves Battleworld, a planet created by Doctor Doom in Marvel Comics. During the Secret Wars storyline, several Marvel characters find themselves on Battleworld, including Spider-Man.
If Marvel takes inspiration from that storyline for its upcoming films, some fans believe Peter could already be somewhere connected to Battleworld by the time the events of Doomsday unfold.
One X user theorised that Brand New Day could be taking place alongside the events of Doomsday, with the latter potentially ending with Doom creating Battleworld. According to the theory, the location shown in the post-credits scene could then be where Peter is stranded, setting up his return in Secret Wars.
However, this remains fan speculation and has not been confirmed by Marvel.
Could Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man be involved?
Another theory has emerged around Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man. Some eagle-eyed viewers noticed that the Queens location appears to remain on the tracker even after the app displays an unknown location. This has led some fans to wonder whether the tracker could be picking up more than one signal.
That has fuelled speculation that Holland's Spider-Man could still be somewhere on Earth while another Spider-Man, potentially Maguire's Peter Parker, could be connected to the second location.
An X user shared their theories that the post-credits teaser could connect to “the rumored Avengers: Doomsday scene involving Tobey trying to save his universe,” or that “Tobey escaped his universe and is now stranded somewhere in space after its destruction.”
Again, there is no official confirmation that Maguire appears in Doomsday or that the post-credits scene is referring to his Spider-Man.
What does the scene mean for Secret Wars?
For now, Marvel appears to be keeping Peter Parker's next destination deliberately vague.
The most straightforward interpretation is that the scene simply confirms that Spider-Man will return. The unexplained location, however, gives Marvel room to connect Peter to the larger multiverse storyline that will play out across Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars.
The Battleworld theory is particularly interesting because of its connection to the Secret Wars comics. But until Marvel reveals more about the two upcoming Avengers films, it remains just that — a theory.
For now, the internet is doing what it does best: looking for clues. Whether Peter Parker turns up in Doomsday, Secret Wars or both remains to be seen.
Avengers: Doomsday is scheduled to release on December 18, 2026. The film is expected to bring together characters from across the Marvel universe, including the Avengers, Fantastic Four and X-Men, with Robert Downey Jr playing Doctor Doom.
