Marvel fans, brace yourselves! Rumors about Spider-Man’s role in Avengers: Doomsday suggests Tom Holland’s webslinger could undergo a radical transformation. From siding with Doctor Doom to embracing his dark side, here’s how Peter Parker’s MCU journey might rewrite the Multiverse Saga.

Theory 1: Tony Stark’s Hidden Guilt & Spider-Man’s Origin

The MCU has never fully explained how Peter Parker got his powers. Clues hint that Tony Stark’s Stark Industries might be responsible for the radioactive spider that bit Peter. Here’s why:

• Iron Man 2 Easter Egg: Young Peter appears at Stark Expo, where Tony saves him. This scene, confirmed by Tom Holland, implies Stark monitored Peter long before the Civil War.
• Stark’s Secret Bio-Lab: Iron Man 3 revealed Stark Industries’ bio-research (via the Extremist project), suggesting they engineered the spider.
• Tony’s Protective Role: Tony’s fatherly care for Peter (e.g., designing suits with parachutes) hints at guilt—perhaps tied to an accident involving Peter’s parents, who worked at Stark Industries.

If Doctor Doom exposes this secret, Peter could blame Stark’s legacy, turning against the Avengers.

Theory 2: Doctor Doom’s Manipulation: A Symbiote-Level Betrayal

Marvel’s Secret Wars comics show Doctor Doom as a multiversal dictator. Here’s how he might corrupt Spider-Man:

• Multiverse Puppeteer: Doom could reveal he orchestrated Peter’s powers by dropping the radioactive spider via a portal (similar to Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse).
• Emotional Blackmail: Doom might promise to resurrect Uncle Ben or MJ in exchange for loyalty, exploiting Peter’s grief post-No Way Home.
• Symbiote Suit 2.0: A darker, doom-enhanced black suit could amplify Peter’s rage, mirroring Spider-Man 3 and Secret Wars storylines.

Theory 3: Spider-Man as Doom’s Winter Soldier

Leaked set photos suggest Spider-Man’s stunt double-filmed action scenes without Tom Holland. This fuels speculation:

• Masked Menace: Peter could become a silent, masked enforcer for Doom, minimizing dialogue needs (perfect for Holland’s rumored scheduling conflicts).
• Battleworld Pawn: In Secret Wars, Doom creates Battleworld by merging realities. A brainwashed Spider-Man might enforce his rule, fighting heroes like Miles Morales or Daredevil.
• Redemption Arc: A final-act twist could see Peter break free, mirroring Bucky’s arc in Captain America: Civil War.

Why These Theories Matter

• MCU’s Spider-Man Origin Mystery: Unlike past films, the MCU never showed Peter’s bite. Linking it to Stark/Doom adds depth.
• Tom Holland’s Contract: With Holland’s MCU future uncertain, Doomsday could write him out tragically… or set up a symbiote saga.
• Doctor Doom’s Rise: Doom needs a win after Quantumania’s Kang flop. Corrupting an Avenger would cement him as Phase 6’s big bad.

Key Evidence from the MCU

• Spider-Man’s Tech Suits: Stark’s nanotech suits (with parachutes/AI) imply he knew Peter’s biology better than he let on.
• No Way Home’s Aftermath: Peter’s isolation makes him vulnerable to manipulation.
• Multiverse Precedent: Loki and Spider-Verse established that timeline breaks create variants—like an evil Spider-Man.

Conclusion: Will Spider-Man Betray the Avengers?
The MCU is primed for a Spider-Man heel turn, and Avengers: Doomsday could be the catalyst. Whether through Doom’s manipulation, Stark’s secrets, or a symbiote suit, Peter Parker’s dark arc would redefine the Multiverse Saga.
