  "summary": "Spider-Man: Brand New Day has a notable Easter egg related to a character named Jean DeWolff. According to Polygon, longtime Spider-Man readers often discuss which characters they would like to see brought back to life, suggesting that Jean DeWolff may be a character of interest.\n\nThe Verge reports that a bootleg of Spider-Man: Brand New Day was leaked on X, reaching over 5.9 million accounts and accumulating over 143,000 likes before being pulled. Disney has since issued takedown requests to remove the leaked film from other accounts.\n\nThe film itself has been successful, raking in $72 million in previews, surpassing the previous record held by Avengers: Endgame, which grossed $60 million during its previews in 2019.",
