Peter Parker dons the Spider-Man costume once more.
In an exciting turn of events, Tom Holland, the acclaimed actor behind the mask of everyone's favourite web-slinger, shared a behind-the-scenes video from his first day on the set of the highly-anticipated "Spider-Man: Brand New Day." Scheduled for release on July 31, 2026, the film promises to continue the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) Spider-Man saga with a fresh spin1.
The video, shared on Holland's Instagram account, captures the actor's infectious enthusiasm as he stands on a moving tank, exclaiming, "That was awesome!"2. The video also shows Holland greeting director Destin Daniel Cretton with a warm hug, and posing for a photo with a young fan donning a Spider-Man suit2.
Fans couldn't contain their excitement, flooding the comments section with praise and anticipation for the forthcoming film. Holland, too, seemed to carry a sense of nervousness, admitting, "Hope I'm doing everything right. No pressure."2
This will mark Holland's fourth outing as Spider-Man in the MCU, following his debut in 20165. The last Spider-Man film starring Holland, "Spider-Man: No Way Home," was released in 2021, with a five-year gap between the two films6.
Rumours suggest that "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" will feature complex action sequences involving Spider-Man, the Punisher, and Scorpion, with Spider-Man trying to prevent the Punisher from killing Scorpion during a high-stakes chase3. There are also whispers of other characters like Hulk and possibly Rhino making an appearance, hinting at a broader and more intense confrontation3.
Filming for the film began in August 2025, with location work in Glasgow, Scotland, and soundstage filming at Pinewood Studios, England1. Holland shared a first look at Spider-Man’s new suit on social media, generating early excitement about the character's updated appearance for this film2.
In an interview, Holland expressed his determination for the new film, stating, "I want to give it my all."2 He also mentioned that putting on the superhero costume feels different this time, promising fans a unique and exciting journey with the new film.
With its fresh suit, darker, more chaotic tone, and interconnected character conflicts, "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" is shaping up to be a major Phase Six MCU film, continuing the Spider-Man storyline in a bold and intriguing way13.
Movies-and-tv enthusiasts eagerly await the release of the highly-anticipated "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" in the realm of entertainment, promising an exciting continuation of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) Spider-Man saga. Tom Holland's engaging behind-the-scenes video, shared on his Instagram account, offers a glimpse into the movies-and-tv production of this much-awaited film.
