Actor Shares Photos Saying Ramrod and Other Footage Were Cut From Spider-Man: Brand New Day

Billy Clements’s social posts add detail to the director’s earlier confirmation that a large multi‑villain fight was removed from the theatrical edit.

Overview

  • Spider-Man: Brand New Day is playing in theaters and actor Billy Clements posted behind‑the‑scenes photos and concept art saying a lot of his Ramrod scenes were cut from the final film.
  • Clements also wrote that “a lot more recognised actors were totally cut out,” a claim that follows the director Destin Daniel Cretton’s prior statement that a major villain fight sequence was removed in editing.
  • Trailers and TV spots show longer villain encounters and recreated comic imagery that do not appear in the same form in the theatrical cut, helping explain the gap between marketing and the released film.
  • Clements said he studied Ramrod’s comic appearances and trained daily to portray the character accurately, and the movie still briefly recreates the Amazing Spider‑Man #221 cover featuring Ramrod.
  • Large late‑stage edits are common in franchise productions, and the disclosure raises the prospect that deleted sequences or an extended cut could clarify which cameo appearances and longer villain set pieces were filmed but not released.
