Speculation has arisen regarding Marvel's casting decisions, particularly concerning a certain talented actress. Recently, reports surfaced indicating that Marvel has added a new star to its extensive roster, with Sadie Sink, known for her role in Stranger Things, being linked to the upcoming Spider-Man 4. Allegedly, she may portray the X-Men character Jean Grey. As the rumors began circulating, Sink was approached for her thoughts on the matter and whether there is any validity to the claims.
During a conversation with Josh Horowitz on the Happy Sad Confused podcast, Sink responded to the inquiry about the casting rumors, stating repeatedly, "This is news to me." As the discussion continued, she seemed to become more reserved and offered a response that hinted at more than she explicitly conveyed. She commented, "I have nothing to express about this. The gossip is truly fascinating though, it's an awesome rumour, it's an outstanding personality, making it enjoyable to read."
After being prompted one last time, she concluded the conversation with an expression of enthusiasm, noting, "I think that's super exciting." This exchange certainly implies that Sink may be joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe, even if she is currently unable to officially confirm any details about the role. The full interview provides further insight into her demeanor amidst the swirling speculation.
