0:00There's a quick shot of the B-list

0:01Spidey foe Boomerang in the brand new

0:04day trailer and it's a loving recreation

0:06of the cover of Amazing Spider-Man

0:08number 345, which showcases him. But

0:11we're learning that the movie version of

0:12Boomerang may not be an entirely direct

0:15adaptation of the one who's in the

0:16comics. According to the X account

0:18Cryptic 4K Qual, who has posted some

0:21accurate MCU leaks in the past,

0:23Boomerang also appears earlier in the

0:25trailer and unmasked, rumor has it that

0:27Boomerang is also MJ's new boyfriend

0:30played by Eiman Esfandi. The account

0:32notes that he and Spidey will have a

0:34sort of comedic rivalry throughout the

0:36movie. If that is indeed the case, it

0:38could have end a lot of online

0:40speculation that Esfandi's character is

0:42the widely hated character Paul Rabin.

0:44In the comics, Paul is not Boomerang.

0:46He's Mary Jane Watson's boyfriend with

0:48whom she adopted two kids while they

0:49were trapped in another dimension. The

0:51kids turn out to not be real, but Paul

0:53and MJ stay together for a while. Then,

0:55spoiler alert, Paul gets killed by a

0:57supervillain named Torment. Mourned you

0:59till we join you, Paul.

1:01>> Paul, that's too bad. What a shame.

1:02>> Yeah, it is. It's a damn shame. A damn

1:05shame.

1:06>> Comics Boomerang is Fred Myers, who was

1:08born in Australia but moved to the US as

1:10a kid. Boomerang has spent around 60

1:12years as one of Spidey's B-list

1:14villains, but they've also teamed up a

1:16few times [music] when they had the same

1:17goals. Fred was even Peter Parker's

1:19roommate for a short while. It doesn't

1:21seem like Esfandi is playing Fred Myers.

1:23Maybe he'll [music] bust out an

1:24Australian accent, but if the rumors are

1:26true, another possibility is that the

1:28MCU might be combining the characters of

1:30Paul and Boomerang into this one guy.

1:33IMDb is no help in this particular

1:35matter at the moment. They simply list

1:36Esfandi's character as MJ's boyfriend.

1:39That said, a lot of why people thought

1:41Esfandi was playing Paul in the first

1:43place is [music] that he's a dead ringer

1:44for the comics version of the character.

1:46We could definitely imagine that hair up

1:47in a man bun. Recent reports have shed a

1:50little light on who MJ's new boyfriend

1:51is, though they haven't confirmed that

1:53he's also a costumed villain who throws

1:55around weapons that come back to him.

1:56Zendaya told Empire magazine that the

1:58whole situation where MJ and Peter

2:00aren't together is heartbreaking,

2:01adding, "You just feel so bad because

2:03you want them to be happy, and you know

2:05ultimately they would be happier

2:06together."

2:07>> Come on, pretend like you're not the

2:09happiest you've ever been in your entire

2:10life.

2:11>> [music]

2:12>> I can't.

2:13>> Some dialogue from a clip shown at

2:15CinemaCon 2026 also confirms that MJ's

2:17new squeeze is also good friends with

2:19Peter's ex-bestie Ned, as Fondi's

2:21character gives Ned a housewarming gift,

2:23and Ned reacts by calling it top shelf.

2:26As Fondi's hits Ned back with "Just like

2:28you." [music] He also apparently tells

2:29MJ, "You can't save everyone," and she

2:31replies with "I can try." So, it seems

2:34like despite forgetting about Peter, MJ

2:36can't shake that Spider-Man spirit.

2:38Notably, a report from the direct about

2:40that CinemaCon dialogue does not note

2:42that MJ's boyfriend has an Australian

2:43accent, so odds are he doesn't. We've

2:46also gotten a couple more looks at

2:47Boomerang in some pre-release brand new

2:49day merchandise. He appears in a handful

2:51of posters for the movie that fans can

2:52buy right now. Unfortunately, his face

2:54is just a little too obscured to make

2:56out whether it's Eman Esfandi under

2:58there. Guess those superhero and

2:59supervillain masks really do work.
