Tom Holland's Spider-Man to team up with The Punisher in new MCU film?

Khaleej Times22-07-2025
Tom Holland's Spider-Man is getting back to basics. Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige has confirmed that the next film in the Spider-Man saga, titled Spider-Man: Brand New Day, will take a more grounded approach, bringing Peter Parker back to the streets of New York City, with a little help (or trouble) from Jon Bernthal's The Punisher.
A report in Collider states that Feige, speaking during a roundtable for Fantastic Four, said this upcoming film will mark the beginning of a 'proper Spider-Man' era in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
'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 said, as quoted by Collider. "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.'
Feige also revealed that this street-level focus opens up exciting possibilities — including the long-awaited team-up between Spider-Man and The Punisher.
'Of course, I love that The Punisher started in a Spider-Man comic,' he said. 'Destin is doing an amazing job right now on that movie, which starts shooting very soon. And he's got eight or nine comic covers up on his wall in his art department that he is bringing to life in this movie, which is super cool.'
While plot details remain under wraps, the title Brand New Day is a nod to the 2008 comic storyline in which Peter Parker resets his life after a deal with the demon Mephisto. The MCU version will likely skip the supernatural elements, but the core theme of starting over in anonymity remains.
At the end of No Way Home, Peter made the heartbreaking decision to let MJ and Ned forget him, moving into a small apartment and sewing his own suit, signalling a fresh, solo start for the web-slinger.
Spider-Man: Brand New Day is expected to hit theaters on July 31, 2026. The film is being directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, best known for Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.

♈ Aries Daily Horoscope for August 2, 2025

Big Aries energy today — but don't burn all your fuel before lunch. August 2 has you moving fast and thinking faster, Aries. You're chasing goals like they're going out of style, but remember: not every battle is worth charging into headfirst. Today is all about channeling that fiery drive in a direction that actually serves you — not just your ego. Career: You're ready to take on the world — or at least your inbox. Just don't bulldoze your way through tasks. A coworker might need your support, and slowing down to help could spark a collaboration that benefits you both. Love: Single Aries, flirtatious banter could turn into something deeper today — if you let it. Coupled Aries, don't let mood swings start unnecessary arguments. A little patience (yes, we said the 'P' word) goes a long way. Body: Your energy is high, but so is your chance of overdoing it. Get moving — take a walk, hit the gym, stretch it out — but listen to your body's limits. You're not a machine, even if you act like one. Mental Health: Feeling restless? That's your cue to do something creative or spontaneous. Structure can be grounding, but today, your soul craves freedom and play. Break routine — mindfully.

♌ Leo Daily Horoscope for August 2, 2025

Let your boldness shine, but don't forget to check your reflection before you roar. Today, Leo, your natural confidence is dialed all the way up — but don't mistake that for invincibility. The spotlight is on you (as usual), but you'll need more than charm to make it through today's curveballs. Whether it's a surprise text from an ex or a team member ghosting a deadline, stay cool, stay centered, and keep your crown on straight. Career: You're radiating boss energy today — and people are noticing. Just remember: leadership isn't about being the loudest voice in the room, it's about making the smartest move. A creative solution or a bold pitch could turn into your next big win. Love: Single? Someone from your past might pop back up in your DMs. Ask yourself if it's growth or just nostalgia. In a relationship? Be careful not to dominate the convo — your partner needs airtime too. Body: You're running hot today — both in temperature and tension. Don't skip your hydration (yes, that counts as self-care), and try to stretch it out if you've been stuck in one position too long. Mental Health: Feeling overwhelmed by expectations — yours or others'? Take a deep breath, unplug for a bit, and remember that validation doesn't always come from applause. Sometimes peace is louder.
