Jon Bernthal's Punisher Set for 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' With Tom Holland
At the end of 'Spider-Man: No Way Home,' there's a quick shot of Holland swinging through New York City in a new suit that resembles the classic, bright red-and-blue costume from the comics. At first glance, the 'Brand New Day' teaser seems like it's similar to that costume, with its sharper colors and raised black edges. There's also a faint, black spider webbing design that's a nod to the original Marvel comics.
Marvel fans will have to wait a year for 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day,' which is the next entry in the MCU. Holland will suit up and swing back into theaters on July 31, 2026.
The fourth 'Spider-Man' film is directed by Destin Daniel Cretton from a screenplay by Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers. Cretton is no stranger to the MCU as he previously helmed 2021's 'Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.' That Marvel film was praised for its crazy kung-fu action sequences and story, which seems like a great fit for Holland's wall-crawling superhero.
'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' will see the return of fellow franchise stars like Zendaya, who plays Peter Parker's girlfriend M.J. Jones-Watson, and Jacob Batalon, who's his best friend Ned Leeds. There are some major additions to the cast as well, like Jon Bernthal, who plays the violent Punisher. He was last seen in Season 1 of 'Daredevil: Born Again' and is expected to return for Season 2, along with a TV special. Bernthal's 'The Bear' co-star Liza Colón-Zayas is also joining 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day,' as is 'Stranger Things' standout Sadie Sink. Their roles remain mysteries, but fans have theorized Sink could be playing the red-haired 'X-Men' character Jean Grey, who's a powerful telepath.
The last time Holland suited up as Spidey was in 2021's 'No Way Home,' which saw past Spider-Men Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield cross over into the MCU. After the heroes defeated several multiversal villains, Benedict Cumberbatch's Doctor Strange casted a spell that made everyone in the world forget that Peter Parker is Spider-Man.

"The Fantastic Four: First Steps" holds its lead atop the box office
Film Review - The Fantastic Four: First Steps LOS ANGELES (AP) — Marvel's first family stumbled in theaters in its second weekend, but still held on to the top spot at the box office. 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps' earned $40 million from 4,125 North American theaters, a 66% drop from a healthy $117.6 million debut. The film was accompanied by comedies 'The Bad Guys 2' and 'The Naked Gun" in the top three box office rankings. The superhero movie dipped significantly more than Marvel's previous film, 'Thunderbolts,' which took a 55% dive in its second weekend. 'First Steps' is the last major blockbuster of the summer. It added nearly $40 million internationally in its second weekend, bringing thefilm's global total to $369 million. The movie's box office drop off was surprising given its strong reviews, said Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst for the data firm Comscore. Though the movie's debut weekend may have given box office results a strong push toward the $4 billion summer benchmark, August is off to a slow start, he said. 'It's a tough lift, but we might be able to get there. It really means that all the films are gonna have to stand on their own,' Dergarabedian said. 'It's gonna be about getting great reviews, having that staying power, that longevity in the marketplace.' Newcomer comedy 'The Bad Guys 2' earned second place at the box office this weekend, with $22 million from 3,852 North American theaters. That was on par with projections and also in line with the first movie in the series, which brought in $23 million in 2022. Paramount's slapstick comedy, 'The Naked Gun,' also in its debut weekend, snagged the third box office spot, earning $17 million from 3,344 locations. Jim Orr, president of domestic distribution for Universal Pictures, said the solid debut for 'The Bad Guys 2,' coupled with strong audience reaction scores, 'should point to a very long, very successful run through not only the rest of the summer, but really, I think into the fall." James Gunn's 'Superman,' which opened four weekends ago and already crossed $550 million globally, earned $13.8 million domestically this weekend, taking the fourth spot. 'Jurassic World Rebirth' followed with $8.7 million. The horror movie 'Together' had a strong debut weekend, coming in at sixth place and earning $6.8 million domestically, proof that August is a month for edgier and off-beat films, Dergarabedian said. 'That's what this month is about. It's not just about box office," Dergarabedian said. "It's also about providing really interesting, rewarding movie-going experiences for audiences.' Dergarabedian said he expects highly-anticipated movies hitting theaters in the next few weeks — including 'Freakier Friday,' and Zach Cregger's horror movie 'Weapons' — to give August a needed boost. The box office is currently up 9.5% from last year. Top 10 movies by domestic box office With final domestic figures being released Monday, this list factors in the estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to Comscore: 1. 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps," $40 million. 2. 'The Bad Guys 2,' $22.2 million. 3. 'The Naked Gun,' $17 million. 4. 'Superman,' $13.8 million. 5. 'Jurassic World Rebirth,' $8.7 million. 6. 'Together,' $6.8 million. 7. 'F1: The Movie,' $4.1 million. 8. 'I Know What You Did Last Summer,' $2.7 million. 9. 'Smurfs,' $1.8 million. 10. 'How to Train Your Dragon,' $1.4 million.

'The Fantastic Four: First Steps' struggles in second weekend at box office
Marvel's latest film isn't having such a fantastic second weekend at the box office. "The Fantastic Four: First Steps" grossed $40 million domestically in its second weekend of release, an unexpectedly sharp 66% decline in business from its opening weekend, according to estimates released by Comscore on Sunday, Aug. 3. The drop is a potentially troubling sign for Marvel, suggesting the superhero blockbuster might not have much longevity at the box office and could be struggling to entice casual moviegoers. "Fantastic Four" initially opened with a solid $117.6 million domestically, just a bit below the $125 million launch of DC's "Superman" two weeks prior. But "Superman" did not experience as large a decline in ticket sales after that debut. During its second weekend, the DC film only fell 53%. The bigger dip for "Fantastic Four" was surprising given critics and audiences both gave positive marks to the superhero tentpole starring Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn and Ebon Moss-Bachrach. Audiences polled by the research firm Cinemascore awarded "Fantastic Four" an A- grade, the same rating as "Superman," and the film holds an 86% approval rating among critics on Rotten Tomatoes. Whoa, baby! The real story behind the adorable star of 'Fantastic Four' But after years of releasing one superhero smash hit after another, Marvel has lately produced more inconsistent results at the box office. In between its rousing successes like last summer's "Deadpool & Wolverine," the studio has also endured several financial disappointments, including 2023's "Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania" and "The Marvels." Prior to "Fantastic Four," Marvel's other summer film, May's "Thunderbolts*," grossed a muted $190 million domestically. In a recent conversation with reporters, Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige argued that some of the studio's recent movies like "The Marvels" and "Thunderbolts*" suffered financially because audiences had not seen Marvel's Disney+ shows and were under the impression they were mandatory viewing. "It's that expansion that I think led people to say, 'Do I have to see all of these? It used to be fun, but now do I have to know everything about all of these?'" Feige said, per The Hollywood Reporter. "And I think 'The Marvels' hit it hardest where people are like, 'OK, I recognize her from a billion-dollar movie. But who are those other two? I guess they were in some TV show. I'll skip it.'" The good news for "Fantastic Four" is that the month of August is relatively light on new major event films, so the movie could benefit from a lack of competition in the coming weeks. How did 'Fantastic Four: First Steps' compare to 'Superman' at the box office? Marvel will next be seen in theaters in July 2026 with "Spider-Man: Brand New Day," which brings back a character that has been a reliable money maker for the studio. That will be followed by the franchise's next big event movie: "Avengers: Doomsday," which features the Fantastic Four returning alongside Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom.
