Who is the new Web-Slinger?
In a new tweet by a user @preterniadotcom, the person found a merchandise of the upcoming movie which featured a massive Cyborg Spider-Woman who is going to be a part of the movie along with Miles Morales, Spider-Gwen, Peter Benjamin Parker, and a whole wide range of other Wall Crawlers from various universes.
The new Cyborg Spider-Woman as revealed in the merchandise projects a highly muscular and massive body with a humongous cannon on the right hand. The physique of the character being similar to Hulk already speaks enough about the character and it can already be anticipated that this character will be one of the major parts of the group.
Even though this character has no such significance in the comics, it is not the first time that a movie sets itself on a whole different course than the comics and in some cases, those even turned out to be better than their source material.

But one of the producers of the movie Christopher Miller explained that so many characters won’t appear in the frontline and they are mostly backgrounded minor characters:
“To clarify, amidst the universe-hopping there are 240 unique characters that had to be designed and modeled but they’re mostly minor or background characters. The scale is grand, but the story is personal & centers on Miles and his family, along w/ Gwen and a handful of others”
