Leaked footage from the film sets revealed that Tom Holland's Peter Parker would come in an intense face-off with Jon Bernthal's Punisher from the Daredevil series. However, during the shoot, when one fan asked Tom Holland, 'Is Punisher in the film?" he simply replied, 'You gotta wait and see."

Marvel CEO On Tom Holland's Character
Previously, Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige teased that Tom Holland will transform into a 'proper Spider-Man" in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Feige, at a round-table conference for The Fantastic Four: First Steps shared, 'I think there's a promise at the end of No Way Home, that for as sad as it is that Peter is forgotten by everyone in his life, we are seeing for the first time in the Tom Holland Spider-Man stories him being a proper Spider-Man."
He added, 'Him being by himself, dedicated to saving the city, and dealing with – for lack of better terms – street-level crime, as opposed to world-ending events."
Spider-Man: Brand New Day, directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, is the follow-up to Tom Holland's 2021 film No Way Home. The film also marks the return of Zendaya's Michelle 'MJ' Jones-Watson and Jacob Batalon's Ned leeds alongside Stranger Things' Sadie Sink and The Bear's Liza Colon-Zayas. Spider-Man: Brand New Day will arrive on the big screens on July 31, 2026.

These tracks were reportedly found in a storage unit and had never been shared with the public before. Speaking with The Irish Sun, he said, 'The sessions started last year and we have already had the Korean boy band BTS over with us in Grouse Lodge, recording one of the songs. There's about ten more, written especially for Michael by the collaborators he worked with in Ireland, including producer Rodney Jerkins and rapper Nephew, who have signed up for the project." Paddy Dunning further shared that he had a conversation with Michael Jackson's estate and got their approval to move forward with the release of an unreleased song and a documentary.

News18 SheShakti 2025 Celebrates Maharashtra's Legacy Of Women Leadership Building New Bharat
The SheShakti edition in Mumbai celebrated Maharashtra's spirit with women leading from the front and driving the vision of a new India, powered by women and anchored in Bharat News18 successfully inaugurated the powerful third season of SheShakti, in partnership with Lions International, celebrating women who've shattered barriers and are shaping the future of India. For the first time ever, SheShakti expanded regionally with a much-anticipated Mumbai Edition. The SheShakti edition in Mumbai marked more than just a milestone, it celebrated Maharashtra's spirit with women leading from the front and driving the vision of a new India, powered by women and anchored in Bharat. Over its two impactful previous editions, News18 SheShakti has evolved from a platform to a powerful initiative that has spotlighted pathbreakers in governance, security, industry, entertainment, science, arts, social justice and much more. This year's theme, 'From Breaking Barriers to Building Bharat', is especially significant as the campaign shifted its focus to regional India, bringing grassroots leadership to the forefront alongside metropolitan voices. The celebration highlighted how real leadership transcends boundaries, urban and rural, grassroots and global and emphasised that a stronger Bharat will be built when women lead across sectors. As stories from grassroots activists, scientists, entrepreneurs, media personalities, policymakers and frontline changemakers took centre stage, SheShakti 2025 reinforced the transformative power of storytelling in shaping India's leadership narrative. Ashwini Bhide, Principal Secretary to the Chief Minister of Maharashtra, and widely known as the 'Metro woman" of Mumbai for handling complex, multi-crore projects, said, 'Working on mega projects in Mumbai is a big challenge but also a massive opportunity, and you need to be a problem solver at all times. Unless we create a robust and strong global standard of public transport in Mumbai, it'll be very difficult for Mumbaikars to commute the way they deserve." Shifting from the Metro to the film industry of Maharashtra, and opening up about how films and OTT shows are evolving for the better, actor Shriya Pilgaonkar said, 'You have to be stubborn about your dreams and flexible about your plan. Today, the work opportunities, especially with the kind of women I have been able to play on screen, are exciting. However, it's important to maintain balance. The industry is quick to box you." 'You have to stay in your power, confidence, and value, and your drive needs to come from within… So, if you want to stay relevant and keep working, you can't always be giving the power to other people," said Mandala Murders actor. Further, adding to the importance of financial freedom for women, Lakshmi Iyer, Group President Designate (Investments), Bajaj Finserv, in her session 'The ROI of Being She', said, 'Financial freedom is like oxygen. For women, it should be like Independence Day. The goal is to be in so much control of your finances that you can say it feels like oxygen to you." Building on the momentum, Dr. Neerja Birla, Founder and Chairperson of the Aditya Birla Education Trust, spoke candidly about India's long-neglected mental health crisis and the cultural shift now underway. She also addressed the silent mental burden carried by women. 'We're conditioned to be caregivers, to put ourselves last. But I say this from experience, if my own cup is half full, how can I give anyone else? It has to be brimming before I can share," she said. The Lions International presents News18 SheShakti 2025- Mumbai edition, concluded with a powerful session by Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, who championed the need for women's empowerment and gender equality in driving the state's development. He emphasized, 'As I matured in my political journey, I came to realize that Maharashtra's vision for growth can only be fulfilled if we truly embrace gender equality. Being a student of economics, I've read global economic trends and noticed one consistent pattern: only those countries have accelerated their growth where they recognized the value of the other 50% of their population: women. If we want to fast-track our own growth, we must bring our women workforce to the front seat. And as we give them more opportunities, we are clearly seeing the results; there is no field today where women are not excelling." During his conversation, he also recalled how, in the early days of women's reservations in local bodies, their male relatives often functioned as the real decision-makers behind the curtain, and how the shift began to take place. 'At that time, women had 33% of the seats. But many were stand-ins. The terms 'sarpanch-pati' and 'corporator-pati' came into existence because men felt it was their role," the Chief Minister said, noting that a gradual shift began around 1997, when women actually began performing in those roles. 'In 2029, when it becomes compulsory to give tickets to women, I don't think we will stop at 33%. Within ten years, it will be 50%," he said. top videos View all The Mumbai edition of News18 SheShakti 2025 brought together trailblazing women who are not just leading in their fields; they're reshaping them. From governance and business to sports, media, and the arts, the conversations were bold, urgent, and unapologetically forward-looking.

Sonam Bajwa Requests Paparazzi Not To Zoom On Her Face In The Cutest Way Possible
Last Updated: In a sweet moment, Sonam Bajwa sweetly asked the photographers not to zoom in on her face as they rushed to capture a glimpse of her. It was grace, glam and elegance all in one frame as Sonam Bajwa got snapped in Mumbai during a casual day out on Tuesday. The actress was seen exiting a venue, holding a glass of what seemed to be her favourite beverage, but before heading towards her car, she had a request for the paparazzi. In a sweet moment, Sonam sweetly asked the photographers not to zoom in on her face as they rushed to capture a glimpse of her and her smile as she interacted with them was indeed worth melting hearts. Beyond her graceful appearance, what stole the limelight was her choice of outfit for the day out in the city. In a vibrant Anarkali suit, Sonam embraced traditional charm, making our hearts skip a beat and proving that simplicity never goes out of style. Sonam Bajwa's Second National Award Sonam Bajwa is currently on cloud nine as her Punjabi movie Godday Godday Cha was named Best Film in the language at the 71st National Film Awards announcement press conference. Directed by Vijay Kumar Arora, the film also features Tania, Gitaj Bindrakhia and Gurjazz in the key roles. It was released in 2023. Reacting to the film's achievement, Sonam, in a statement, expressed gratitude. She said, 'Winning the National Award for Best Punjabi Film for Godday Godday Cha is a truly humbling and special feeling! The film received so much love at the box office, and now, to be recognised at the national level is a blessing." She further added, 'I'll continue being part of both commercial and path-breaking cinema in Punjabi and Hindi. That's what gives me a real high as an actor- being part of stories that entertain, engage, and are celebrated by both audiences and the nation." What Is Godday Godday Cha About Set in the 1990s, Godday Godday Cha is about women in Punjab who are barred from attending wedding processions. However, Rani, played by Sonam, takes it upon herself to end this patriarchal custom. Before Godday Godday Cha, Sonam's Punjab 1984, directed by Anurag Singh, also won the National Award. Anurag is currently directing the upcoming film, Border 2. On the other hand, the director of Godday Godday Cha, Vijay Kumar Arora, recently directed the Ajay Devgn-Mrunal Thakur film, Son Of Sardaar 2.
