20 Wild Theories For Upcoming Movies
1. The Sinister Six Will FINALLY Appear - Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse
Despite being one of the most iconic supervillain supergroups in comic book history, Marvel's Sinister Six have never been depicted in a movie, though not for lack of trying.
After all, 2014's The Amazing Spider-Man 2 began laying the groundwork for a planned two-part Sinister Six movie, though this was ultimately scrapped when Sony teamed up with Marvel Studios to bring the web-slinger into the MCU.
But there's hope that fans will finally get to see the group in the upcoming animated sequel Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse, given that previous film Across the Spider-Verse acknowledged their existence.
In the final scene where Miles (Shameik Moore) ends up stranded in Earth-42, we briefly hear J. Jonah Jameson (J.K. Simmons) refer to the "Sinister Six Cartel," while the skyline shows off various neon-signposted company names referring to Electro, Vulture, Sandman, Scorpion, Doc Ock, and Rhino.
Now, it's certainly possible that this was nothing more than a cute, Easter egg-y tease for fans, but given that Beyond the Spider-Verse is set to be the epic finale to this animated Spider-Man trilogy, why not close it out by giving fans what they so desperately want to see?
