Spider-Man: Brand New Day is going to be released in theaters on July 31, 2026. While the newest trailer of the film confirms that Bruce Banner will lose his control of the Hulk, sources say that we might get to see Gray Hulk in action.
So far, we have only seen the green and red Hulk, but if the reports are true, we will get to see Gray Hulk as well.
Who is Gray Hulk and why could he appear in Spider-Man: Brand New Day?
The Gray Hulk first appeared in the comic issue #347. According to Marvel, in issue #345, an explosion took place, which seemed to have killed Hulk. However, in issue #347, a new version of Hulk appeared, who is the Gray Hulk. This new version had somehow lived through the explosion and evaded death. The human side of this Hulk worked as a bouncer at Mike Berengetti’s casino.
This is also when the concept of Hulk having a multiple personality disorder began to surface. The Spider-Man: Brand New Day trailer has already confirmed that Hulk will be manipulated into going after Spider-Man. As sources claim, Gray Hulk is going to appear in the upcoming film.
This leak has created a huge buzz among fans. Fans were already looking forward to who or what will make Hulk go against Peter, but the new leak has led to new speculations. Given Gray Hulk’s persona in the comics and how the character evolved in the next comics, we might see him have a multiple personality disorder, which would explain why he is so hell-bent on killing Peter.
It is unlikely that Hulk will appear to die and then transform into Gray Hulk, as that would cause severe complications in Bruce Banner’s future storyline in the MCU. However, the Gray Hulk might be a condition that happens to Hulk for some time. Perhaps the main antagonist of the film will expose Hulk or Banner to gamma rays that turn him into Gray Hulk, essentially making him even more dangerous than he usually can be.
This new leak has added even more buzz around Spider-Man: Brand New Day. The leak is still not confirmed by Marvel to be true and thus is officially just speculation so far.
Spider-Man: Brand New Day is going to be released in theaters on July 31, 2026. An early screening of film is going to take place on July 29, 2026 in select theaters.
