Spider-Man: Far From Home Gets New Post-Credits Footage That Deepens J. Jonah Jameson's Rant and Teases Spider-Man 3

A brand new post-credits scene for Spider-Man: Far From Home has surfaced online, and it adds a surprising amount of depth to the movie's ending while teasing what could be coming in Spider-Man 3. The clip made its way to the web through J. Jonah Jameson's website, The Daily Bugle dot net, and it is entirely new, never-before-seen footage tied to the reveal that Peter Parker is Spider-Man.

This matters for fans because the original theatrical cut ended abruptly on Peter shouting in shock after Mysterio's doctored footage exposed his identity to the world. This new clip appears to fill in what would have come right after that moment, giving JJJ's reaction much more room to breathe.

J. Jonah Jameson's Full Rant Against Spider-Man Gets More Screen Time

The roughly 30 second clip is short but packed with new dialogue from JJJ himself, who tears into Peter Parker on air. In the clip he calls Parker "a teenage psychopath armed to the teeth for some reason with an army weaponized drones wielding powers he has no right to possess trying to pass himself off as a hero," before declaring, "you are a criminal, a menace, and the good people of this nation will squash you like the bug that you are."

From what I'm gathering, this extended rant was likely meant to follow directly on from Peter's shocked outburst in the theatrical cut, which actually ties in nicely with the ending of Homecoming and its own big reveal moment. It's a funnier and more fitting way to close things out.

A Daily Bugle Newspaper Clip Reveals The Public Is Learning The Truth About Mysterio

Alongside JJJ's tirade, there's a quick shot in the clip of a newspaper article from the Daily Bugle site that gives insight into how the world is starting to view Mysterio in the wake of the attack on London. The paragraph reads: "Quentin Beck was not born on earth, at least not our earth, but he gave his life protecting it. If only the people weren't fed such lies about him."

This suggests that while most authority figures likely know Mysterio orchestrated the whole attack, the truth is starting to spread that he was a villain and master illusionist rather than the hero he tried to present himself as. I'm glad this line was included at all, because it seems to confirm that the majority of the world, and certainly most of the Avengers who know Peter personally, understand he isn't a murderer or the kind of guy who would launch a drone attack.

This Detail Could Set Up Peter Clearing His Name With Help From The Avengers

Going forward, I think this element could be used to let Peter Parker downplay his part in Mysterio's death. If there are people out there who already believe he had no real involvement, it opens the door for Spider-Man to potentially team up with other MCU heroes to help clear his name properly, especially since the Avengers at the end of Endgame already know exactly what kind of person Peter is.

J. Jonah Jameson's Threat Raises The Question Of Where He Fits If Spider-Man Is Cleared

The tricky part is JJJ's own words in the clip, where he insists the public will "squash" Peter like a bug. If the wider public and the heroes start working to clear Spider-Man's name, it raises the question of where that leaves Jameson and his crusade against the character, and whether that frustration could push him toward a darker path.

Reports Suggest J. Jonah Jameson Will Be The First MCU Character To Cross Into The Sony Spider-Verse Via Morbius

There were reports earlier in the week that J. Jonah Jameson is set to be the first MCU character to cross over into the wider Sony Spiderverse, with an appearance planned in the upcoming Morbius movie starring Jared Leto. The theory is that after failing to turn public opinion against Spider-Man, Jameson could instead turn to one of Spider-Man's villains for help.

There is precedent for this in the comics, where JJJ was the one who gave Scorpion access to all of his technology in order to go after Spider-Man. I would love to see that kind of plot pop up in the MCU, with Jameson acting as a pivotal character who connects and bridges the two universes together.

This could also mean Morbius may end up setting up events that carry into Spider-Man 3, and I would be very surprised if Tom Holland, or at least some mention of Spider-Man, didn't show up in that film hinting at what's coming next for the wall crawler in the MCU.

Do you think Spider-Man ends up being painted as the true villain of this next saga, or does the truth about Mysterio win out?
