- Daredevil and Venom are favored to appear in Spider-Man: No Way Home with +125 odds each.
- Miles Morales +1400 odds could be appealing based on Spider-Man lore.
- Uncle Ben at +5000 may be the best odds at sportsbooks due to the premise of the film.
NEW YORK – The upcoming Spider-Man: No Way Home movie has fans speculating heavily on which Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) characters will be making an appearance. Naturally, sportsbooks have also gotten in on the fun.
With the premise of the film involving alternate timelines, several characters could realistically show up and it makes sense in the overarching narrative.
Online sportsbooks are hosting odds for a few Marvel characters and based on these lines, longshot betting may be the way to go.
Broken Timeline Leads To Major Odds

The film sees Peter Parker (played by Tom Holland) request Dr. Strange (played by Benedict Cumberbatch) to make it so no one knows Parker is indeed Spider-Man.
This leads to a broken timeline where characters from past Spider-Man films appear; most notably Alfred Molina as Dr. Otto Octavious.
The distorted timelines can bring many MCU characters to Spidey’s world, leading betting fans to believe Spider-Man rivals in Venom and Daredevil will be making an appearance.
Will Any Of These Characters Appear In ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’
- Daredevil +125
- Venom +125
- Kingpin +600
- Hawkeye +900
- Miles Morales +1400
- Mysterio +1400
- Scarlett Witch +1800
- Uncle Ben +5000
Daredevil’s most recent iteration was the Netflix series of the same name. Actor Charlie Cox who played Matt Murdock (Daredevil) is expected to remain the titular anti-hero in the MCU despite the end of the Netflix series.

Cox has denied reports of being in Spider-Man: No Way Home on multiple occasions, but he still sits with short odds at entertainment betting sites.
This could likely be due to Molina. The Spider-Man 2 actor denied all rumors surrounding him being in the upcoming film until the first official trailer revealed his involvement. Fans and entertainment gamblers are not falling for this same ruse a second time.
Venom appearing in the film also makes sense. Venom is a Sony product, same as Spider-Man, and the first Venom film was a box office success so it makes sense that Sony would want to combine two of their biggest franchises into a single film.
What works against this is that Venom is not a part of the MCU and the Tom Holland Spider-Man is. It may take a lot of legal action to include Venom in an MCU film.
Underdogs Have Valid Cases
Characters like Uncle Ben and Mysterio, who are canonically deceased in the Spider-Man films, could easily make an appearance via flashbacks, leading to easy wins for longshot betting fans.
Another interesting character that could make an appearance is Miles Morales. Miles is Spider-Man in another universe based on the comic’s lore and could easily make an appearance if he showed up with the broken timeline.
Sony released a film with a similar premise in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. The timeline was also broken leading to Peter Parker and Miles Morales working together.
Miles has become a popular character for Sony with the recent success of the film and video game series his character is a part of. This could be an easy way to introduce him to future properties.
Longshot gamblers could easily cash in on these odds, wager on however your spidey senses sway you.
