Confirmation Secured: Street-Level Spider-Man presence officially in Marvel Cinematic Universe
In an exciting turn of events, the upcoming Spider-Man film, titled Spider-Man: Brand New Day, is poised to offer a fresh take on the iconic superhero. Tom Holland, who has donned the Spider-Man suit in previous Marvel films, recently discussed the upcoming series, revealing a shift towards old-school filmmaking and the use of real-world locations, including the streets of Glasgow for a massive set piece.
Contrary to speculation, the filming in Glasgow is for Spider-Man: Brand New Day, not The Odyssey. The series is expected to see Holland's MCU version of Spider-Man return to a street-level, New York-based role, marking a departure from the magic and multiverse focus of recent films like No Way Home and Multiverse of Madness.
The film will find Peter Parker trying to focus on college life and attempting to leave behind his Spider-Man persona. However, when his friends are endangered, he is forced to break his promise and suit up again. The film is described as a "fresh start" for the character following the events of Spider-Man: No Way Home.
Peter Parker is not alone in his heroics. Michelle and Ned are confirmed to be returning for Spider-Man: Brand New Day. The Punisher, played by Jon Bernthal, has also been confirmed to appear in the series, suggesting a focus on street-level characters. This could potentially lead to collaborations with other street-level characters like Daredevil or Jessica Jones.
Johnny Storm actor Joseph Quinn from the upcoming Fantastic Four has expressed interest in working with Holland's Spidey. The film's narrative seems to revisit the theme of Spider-Man as a misunderstood figure in the city, facing new monstrous threats possibly related to Venom or symbiotes, and emphasizing Peter’s determination despite personal losses and public distrust.
The use of real-world setpieces in Spider-Man: Brand New Day is a notable aspect, hinting at a grounded, urban atmosphere for the story. The film is scheduled for release on July 31, 2026. Marvel has confirmed that Spider-Man will not appear in Avengers: Doomsday, with Tom Holland not being revealed in the "chair name" stream.
