Spoilers ahead if you have not seen the movie!

What happens at the end of Spider-Man: Brand New Day?
At the end of the film, Peter runs into Ned at the local bodega.
Peter approached Ned to introduce himself, and they shake hands. However, Peter starts doing their secret handshake, and Ned somehow remembers it, too. This indicates that Ned possibly remembers Peter, despite having his memory wiped.
Audiences have been questioning how Ned remembered, and if there’s more to come that will be answered.

The Brand New Day director was asked about the ambiguous ending between Ned and Peter Parker
Deadline asked Destin if he wanted to “debunk” any of the fan theories floating around. He responded, “Do you really think you’d want me to answer that? [Laughs.]”
He then elaborated further, “Listen, we’re definitely not trying to torture people with ambiguity. I feel like what’s very clear is the emotion you’re left with when we cut to black. To me, there’s a very clear feeling of joy — just enough — and then you cut to black. I have seen the theories, and I love the theories. I think they’re so cool, and I don’t want to stop that conversation by putting my opinion in the middle of it. Knowing there will be another movie, that conversation will continue in the writer’s room as we figure out — if we figure out — what we’re going to do next.”
He continued, “That’s what’s so cool about these movies. The fans are so engaged. Everybody on our side is listening to everything. Those are conversations we’ve had in the writers’ room as well, and I think it’s fun that everybody is participating not just in analyzing this movie, but potentially in creating whatever happens in the next one.”
