So naturally, Michael B. Jordan turning up at the Los Angeles premiere of Spider-Man: Brand New Day caught my attention. Jordan is not part of the 2026 movie release ’s announced cast, and there was no obvious reason to expect Killmonger at a Spider-Man event. Its colorful Spider-Man artwork makes the connection to Brand New Day clear without turning Jordan into a walking movie poster. Jordan looks polished enough for photographers, but comfortable enough to actually sit through a movie afterward. Still, a Spider-Man shirt is not proof that Killmonger survived again, nor does it mean Jordan is preparing to become the Human Torch of Earth-Another-Number.
