First Look at Tom Holland's Spider-Man: Brand New Day suit brings early Marvel comics nostalgia
Returning Faces and New Additions
What Lies Ahead
To mark National Spider-Man Day on August 1, Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures released a brief but exciting teaser for Spider-Man: Brand New Day , the fourth film in Tom Holland's Spider-Man franchise. The nine-second clip showcased Holland's updated Spider-Man suit, stirring a wave of excitement among fans across social media.The teaser was captioned, 'Something brand new is coming,' and features a close-up of the costume. Despite its brevity, the video has already generated intense speculation and enthusiasm. The updated outfit closely mirrors the red-and-blue suit seen at the end of Spider-Man: No Way Home, which paid homage to the original comic book designs.The new costume blends modern detailing with classic aesthetics. It features sharper red and blue hues, elevated black outlines, and a subtle webbing pattern—elements reminiscent of both early Marvel comic illustrations and Sam Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy. This combination of old and new suggests Marvel is leaning into the hero's roots while setting the stage for the next phase of his cinematic story.Viewers on X (formerly Twitter) responded eagerly, with one fan suggesting this could surpass Spider-Man 2 as the best in the franchise, while others simply demanded more footage. Some expressed disbelief and excitement that a fourth film was truly in the works.Spider-Man: Brand New Day will mark Tom Holland's return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe after 2021's No Way Home. That film concluded with Peter Parker making the difficult decision to let the world forget his identity, as Doctor Strange cast a spell to erase all memories of him being Spider-Man.Key cast members will reprise their roles in the upcoming installment, including Zendaya as M.J. and Jacob Batalon as Ned Leeds. The movie will also introduce new characters, with Jon Bernthal confirmed to appear as the Punisher. According to Variety, Liza Colón-Zayas from The Bear and Stranger Things star Sadie Sink will also join the ensemble. While their roles have not been disclosed, Sink's casting has already led to speculation that she could portray Jean Grey, a telepathic mutant from the X-Men universe.Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, known for Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, the film is being written by Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers, who previously penned Holland's earlier Spider-Man entries. With Brand New Day, Marvel kicks off Phase 6 of the MCU, setting a new tone for Peter Parker's journey following the multiverse chaos of No Way Home.The film is slated to release on July 31, 2026, giving fans ample time to theorize and anticipate what's in store for their friendly neighborhood Spider-Man.

"The Fantastic Four: First Steps" earns $40 million from 4,125 North American theatres, sees 66% drop
The superhero movie dipped significantly more than Marvel's previous film, 'Thunderbolts,' which took a 55% dive in its second weekend. read more 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. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD '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. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD '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. 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.
