‘Spider-Man 4’ Rumor Suggests A ‘Sinister Six’ Storyline Was Scrapped For Mephisto

Is Spider-Man 4 getting a complete overhaul? A new rumor suggests that the film is switching focus on the Sinister Six to a Mephisto storyline.

Specifically, the new focus for the sequel seems to have Mephisto as the main villain with Ghost Rider serving as a supporting character, similar to how Doctor Strange and Nick Fury have appeared in Tom Holland’s past projects. It’s a storyline with a lot of legs to run with when it comes to a feature film, but it’ll need to be something truly exceptional to make sure Tom Holland’s sequel doesn’t flop like the comic event. Of course, both a Sinister Six movie and one revolving around Mephisto would serve to disappoint fans who hoped Spider-Man 4 would bring Tom Holland’s hero down to the street level.
