Summary:
- New Spider-Man 4 fan art imagines Tom Holland’s Spidey teaming up with Charlie Cox’s Daredevil, Hailee Steinfeld’s Kate Bishop, and several other street heroes to fight Kingpin.
- The fan art is clearly inspired by the Devil’s Reign’s storyline in the comics, with Kingpin also being the main villain.

Tom Holland’s Spider-Man 4 is arguably one of the most anticipated Marvel movies in the upcoming years. Fans are on their feet to see what lies in store for Peter Parker after his tragic ending in No Way Home, where he loses his aunt and even his identity to save his universe.
So far, there is very little information and updates about the upcoming Spider-Man 4, though the movie is currently under development with Tom Holland reprising the iconic role. While Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios want to prolong Peter Parker’s MCU adventure, time will tell when his next movie will hit theaters.
However, it doesn’t stop online artists from creating the most epic concept art ever, predicting what will happen in the sequel.
Like this Spider-Man 4 fan art, for example, envisions Holland’s Spider-Man uniting with a cadre of Marvel’s street-level heroes to take on the formidable Kingpin, an iconic Spidey villain that recently joined the MCU.

Shared by Solo Authority, this Spider-Man 4 concept art features multiple iconic Marvel heroes from different movies, such as Charlie Cox’s Daredevil, Jon Bernthal’s Punisher, Krysten Ritter’s Jessica Jones, and Hailee Steinfeld’s Kate Bishop, teaming up against Vincent D’Onofrio’s Kingpin. All of these characters have been confirmed to be a part of the MCU after being merged from Sony and Netflix.
The artwork also features Zendaya‘s M.J. Watson, Jacob Batalon‘s Ned Leeds, J.K. Simmons’ J. Jonah Jameson, along with the introduction of Scorpion and Black Cat. The last two’s designs are clearly inspired from the popular video game Marvel Spider-Man franchise.
Marvel Comics fans would realize this scenario in an instant: the iconic Devil’s Reign storyline, which pitches the Wall-Crawler alongside other superheroes against Kingpin, who’s now New York City Mayor. Marvel Studios is likely adapting this storyline as well, with D’Onofrio Kingpin aiming for the mayor’s position at the end of Echo.
The prospect of Spider-Man leading the MCU‘s street-level heroes was hinted at following Matt Murdock’s cameo in Spider-Man: No Way Home. Marvel Studios’ president Kevin Feige also wants these two iconic superheroes to helm the new Defenders squad. Charlie Cox is set to reprise his role in Daredevil: Born Again, slated for a 2025 release on Disney+, where Kingpin, played by Vincent D’Onofrio, will also be a major antagonist.
Kingpin is also rumored to be the antagonist in the upcoming Spider-Man 4, hinting at how the storylines of Tom Holland‘s Spider-Man and Charlie Cox’s Daredevil can intertwine with each other. Since Spider-Man 4 is rumored to be on a much more grounded level, it makes sense for the sequel to feature several other street-level heroes in New York, like the Punisher, Jessica Jones, and Kate Bishop, to join forces with the Wall-Crawler to battle a bigger enemy.
As the poster suggests, Spider-Man 4 could also see Peter reunite with MJ and Ned, his most trusted allies in the trilogy. Though the two have forgotten about Peter due to Doctor Strange‘s spell, there must be some way for them to remember their friend again in the sequel.
