Could Harry Osborn finally appear in the MCU? The latest rumor for Spider-Man: Brand New Day suggests Marvel may be on the hunt for an actor.
Fans are confused about Spider-Man: Brand New Day. For good reason, too. It seems as though every week the project is changing where it wants to sit in the MCU, be it grounded or deep in the multiverse. Given the film will set the tone for the rest of the trilogy going forward, this ever-churning rumor mill has left fans worried that key characters like Harry Osborn and Gwen Stacy may be left on the sidelines once more.
Yet there seems to be hope for at least one of those characters. Insider DanielRPK reveals that Marvel is looking for a “Harris Dickinson” type actor to play a role in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. While who the actor would play is far from confirmed, it’s more likely than not that they’re trying to find someone to play Harry Osborn in the MCU.
Who Is Playing Harry Osborn In The MCU?
Given the rumor states that they’re looking for someone like Harris Dickinson, but not the actor himself, to play a character in the MCU, fans now have the freedom to speculate who could play Harry Osborn in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. While the joke answer has always been Timothee Chalamet, there are some solid picks to portray the friend turned enemy.
Tanner Buchanan, Asa Butterfield, and Adrian Enscoe often top fancast lists regarding who could play Harry Osborn in the MCU. Though given Spider-Man: Brand New Day may play with the multiverse a bit, it could be fun to see Ty Simpkins take on the role after his role as Harley Keener in Iron Man 3. But given the film is set to start production soon, the actor will likely be revealed in due time.
