Sinister Six
Concept art has revealed Mysterio almost return inSpider - Man : No Way Home- and he would have given the MCU theirSinister Six . wanderer - Man has always had one of the best varlet ' heading in funnies , and in 1964 Stan Lee and Steve Ditko’sAmazing Spider - Manannual saw six of his scoundrel occur together as a team for the first time . Over the decade , they ’ve become one of Marvel ’s most prominent supervillain teams , blend through legion loop , and even morphing into an Avengers - level threat at one full stop .
Sony began plans to bring the Sinister Sixto the magnanimous sieve back in 2013 , and they intendedThe Amazing Spider - Man 2to assist as a launchpad for the spinoff , which they hoped would be the beginning of a Spider - Man cinematic macrocosm to rival the MCU . Unfortunately , the studio ’s attempts to incorporate this intoThe Amazing Spider - Man 2left the moving-picture show feeling singularly confused and disjointed , and it proved underwhelming . By 2015 , Sony had strike a fresh deal with Marvel Studios to bring a bring up Spider - Man into the MCU - but the studio never forgot the Sinister Six , and there have been constant rumbling since that something new is in the piece of work .

late - releasedconcept art forNo Way Homereveals Mysteriowas look at for the film as well , rounding out the Sinister Six . It ’s unclear whether this would be a Mysterio from the multiverse , the one who was belt down inSpider - Man : Far From Homebrought forward in time , or even the same villain divulge his expiry was fake ( as many theorized after first watchingSpider - Man : Far From menage ) . Whatever the compositor’s case may be , though , he was apparently considered for the final conflict on the Statue of Liberty , going headway - to - head with Doctor Strange himself . Thus the MCU , and Sony , would have had their Sinister Six at last .
While it would undoubtedly have been cool to see the Sinister Six bring to life at last , in world , Spider - Man : No room Homesimply did n’t need Mysterio . The film already risked having too many role , with five villains , three wanderer - Men between Holland , Maguire , and Garfield , Doctor Strange , and Tom Holland ’s supporting hurl of ally and syndicate . What ’s more , Mysterio comes with very different luggage from the others ; he ’s driven by vanity and covetousness , meaning there ’s absolutely no style for Spider - Man and his champion to cure him . Glimpses of Mysterio alive and well would have even risk damaging the denouement of the previous flick , as , if he ’d been seen by anybody , Peter Parker would have been straight off cleared of toss off him .
It remain to be seen whether the Sinister Six will ever appear - either in the MCU or , perhaps more likely now , in Sony ’s Spider - Man spinoffs .
