Marvel’s White Tiger
Marvel Studios is taking a bold step into new territory with the announcement of White Tiger, a film focused on the beloved but underutilized Marvel character, White Tiger, with Jenna Ortega in the title role. White Tiger promises to deliver action, intrigue, and character depth in a story centered around Ava Ayala, the newest bearer of the mystical White Tiger amulet. Joining Ortega is Tom Holland, reprising his role as Peter Parker in a supporting capacity, further linking White Tiger to the broader Marvel Cinematic Universe.
The film follows Ava Ayala, portrayed by Ortega, a college student with a fierce commitment to justice. Her character discovers her family’s legacy as protectors when she inherits the White Tiger amulet, which endows her with superhuman agility, strength, and martial arts s𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁s. Ortega, known for her recent success in Wednesday and Scream, expressed her excitement in interviews, saying, “Ava’s journey is not just about power—it’s about responsibility, legacy, and how we choose to make our mark on the world.”
Holland’s Spider-Man is expected to play a key role in Ava’s journey. Sources reveal that Peter Parker will serve as a mentor figure, helping Ava navigate the challenges of wielding the amulet and facing down the series’ primary villain, Black Death, who is rumored to be portrayed by a yet-unnamed A-lister.
