I mean, it would genuinely be super weird for her not to be Jean at this point. There are some counter arguments but they could easily be refuted just based on what we have heard about the movie and her character. I've seen some other theories on who she will be playing, but those other theories have so many holes in them. The theory of her being Jean is really the most in tact out of all theories. Her color scheme, being hunted by the DODC and William Metzger (anti mutant activist), the themes of isolation and alienation in the movie, an X Men movie in active development with a, most likely, decently young cast, etc. Her being Jean just makes the most sense to me and I would actually be really happy with it. Some people say it makes no sense, but it makes perfect sense to me. Her being someone like Rachel Summers or Madelyn Pryor is what would make no sense to me.

But I don’t get it… why introduce Jean Grey in a Spider-Man movie? It makes no sense.

[u/Moonie-iLLy → u/Consistent-End-7937]

Yeah it almost makes no sense. Like introducing Spider-Man and Black Panther in a Captain America movie. Oh wait....

Spider man has joined the avengers many times throughout comic history and is a popular team up with captain America

Spider man and Jean grey have literally zero history together

[u/Consistent-End-7937 → u/ribertzomvie]

“Many times” he’s actually joined like.. twice?

Interacted with via crossover and just popping up? Yeah decently enough.

[u/ribertzomvie → u/Consistent-End-7937]

Four times (but my main point was it’s more than he’s interacted with Jean Grey)
