Sadie Sink, the 23-year-old actress, has opened up about her experiences working on Stranger Things and the upcoming Spider-Man film. She revealed that she learned she would join the Spider-Man franchise while still filming the fifth and final season of Stranger Things.

Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, Sink described the announcement as a surreal and exciting moment. “Spider-Man has always been my favorite. I love Spider-Man. I love Tom’s Spider-Man, especially,” she said. She explained that being a fan and then becoming part of a project is a familiar feeling for her. She felt the same excitement when she joined Stranger Things, a show she had admired before joining.

Sink said the Spider-Man project is particularly special because it allowed her to reunite with director Destin Daniel Cretton. She had previously worked with him on The Glass Castle in 2017. “I worked with Destin Daniel Cretton on one of my first films when I was 14, so it’s kind of a full-circle moment. I had an amazing time working on that film,” she said.

While she is keeping details about her role and the plot of the film under wraps, Sink said she is eager to share more with fans soon. “I can’t wait to talk about it more. There’s so much I want to share,” she said.

The actress also spoke about the challenge of keeping secrets in both franchises. She joked that handling secrecy has become second nature to her. “That’s why I feel like keeping Stranger Things secrets is kind of easy because I have so many Spider-Man secrets I’m sitting on that feel even more secretive,” Sink admitted.

Fans can catch the final episode of Stranger Things Season 5, starring Sink, on December 31, 2025. Her Spider-Man film, Spider-Man: Brand New Day, is scheduled to be released on July 31, 2026.

This new role marks an important step in Sink’s career. She is transitioning from one globally popular franchise to another. Her fans are excited to see her in a completely different universe while continuing to follow her journey in Stranger Things.

Industry observers say this move highlights Sink’s versatility as an actress. From a Netflix sensation to a Marvel superhero universe, Sink is steadily building a strong presence in global cinema. Her experience on both projects also reflects her growth as an artist.

While details of Spider-Man: Brand New Day remain mostly under wraps, insiders suggest it will feature high-profile characters and epic action sequences. Sink’s involvement adds another layer of anticipation for audiences worldwide.

Her comments indicate that the experience of being a fan first and then joining a project has shaped her approach to acting. It also shows her deep enthusiasm for projects that she has admired from the start.

Fans of both Stranger Things and Spider-Man are eagerly waiting for her appearances. The upcoming year promises to be a milestone for Sink, with the conclusion of Stranger Things and the launch of her Marvel debut.
