Tom Holland shares how Spider-Man: Brand New Day will improve on No Way Home
Spider-Man: Brand New Day will be better than Spider-Man: No Way Home because it will 'shoot in real locations' instead of on production sets, Tom Holland has said. The 29-year-old actor is due to suit up as the Wall-Crawler once again for the upcoming Marvel superhero blockbuster and has now stressed Spider-Man: Brand New Day will improve on its 2021 predecessor by dropping the sound stages in favour of filming on location – with principal photography set to start in Glasgow next month. Speaking with Flip Your Wig, Holland said: 'I'm obviously over the moon and so excited. Playing Spider-Man is like hanging out with an old pal, and I think we were really restricted with what we could do in the last movie because of COVID. We shot the entire film on stages." 'Now, we're really going to lean into that old-school filmmaking and shoot in real locations, which is why we're starting in Glasgow.' The Odyssey star added the streets of the Scottish city would be used for a 'massive set piece' in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Reflecting on Spider-Man: Brand New Day, Holland teased the film would feel like a 'breath of fresh air', like his original 2017 movie Spider-Man: Homecoming. He said: 'It's going to feel like making [Spider-Man: Homecoming] again. It's been such a long time that I've done it [and] it's going feel like a breath of fresh air." 'And I think the fans are going to be over the moon with what we're putting together.' Spider-Man: Brand New Day will see the return of Zendaya as Michelle 'MJ' Jones-Watson, Jacob Batalon as Ned Leeds and Jon Bernthal as The Punisher. Spider-Man: Brand New Day will also introduce Stranger Things actress Sadie Sink and The Bear's Liza Colón-Zayas, though it has not been confirmed what roles they will be playing in the movie. While little is known about the plot of the upcoming movie, it has been rumoured Mark Ruffalo's Hulk may be the main antagonist of the film, but this has not been confirmed. Spider-Man: Brand New Day – which will be helmed by Shang-Chi And The Legend Of The Ten Rings director Destin Daniel Cretton – is set to land in cinemas on Jul 31, 2026. When Holland and Cretton revealed the title for Spider-Man: Brand New Day at CinemaCon in March, the Uncharted star teased the movie would be a 'fresh start' for the Wall-Crawler. Appearing on screen at the event, Holland said: 'I know we left you with a massive cliffhanger at the end of No Way Home, where Peter Parker sacrificed his identity to save the people that he loves most in the world." 'So, Spider-Man: Brand New Day is a fresh start. It is exactly that. That's all I can say. That's all I've been allowed to say, and I'm well over the hump of giving away spoilers. So don't you worry: I'm not going to do that today.'

Tom Holland says ‘Spider-Man 4' will be a ‘breath of fresh air' after Covid forced last movie to be shot on sound stages
Tom Holland is 'over the moon' to soon be slinging webs again as everyone's favorite neighborhood Spider-Man, but he's 'so excited' about the next sequel for a particular reason. In a recent interview for 'Flip Your Wig,' Holland explained the new film – the fourth in the MCU series, titled 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' – will be a return to form for the franchise after the Covid-19 pandemic hampered the filmmaking team's abilities with the last entry, 2021's 'Spider-Man: No Way Home.' 'I think we were really restricted with what we could do in the last movie because of Covid. We shot the entire film on stages,' Holland said. 'Now we're really going to lean into that old school filmmaking and shoot in real locations.' He added that one of those locations will be Glasgow, Scotland, where production will soon be starting. 'We are going to use the streets of Glasgow for this massive set piece that we are putting together,' he teased. Holland also said that 'playing Spider-Man is like hanging out with an old pal,' and that filming the next entry is 'going to feel like making 'Spider-Man 1' (2017's 'Spider-Man: Homecoming') again.' 'It's been such a long time that I've done it that it's going to feel like a breath of fresh air. I think the fans are going to be over the moon with what we're putting together.' While Holland acknowledged that there were some creative challenges in making 'No Way Home,' those certainly did not impact the film's massive box office success – the third film in the franchise ended up grossing $1.9 billion worldwide. That certainly had to do with the fact that the movie welcomed back the actors who portrayed Peter Parker a.k.a. Spider-Man in the previous two franchises, Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield. 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' is slated for release in summer 2026.

Tom Holland: 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' Will Have Old School Filmmaking
Tom Holland is booked and busy. On top of staring in Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, the actor is gearing up for Spider-Man: Brand New Day—and teased a huge change to the film. Speaking to Flip Your Wig (via Variety), Tom said that Brand New Day will lean into old school filmmaking, which is a massive switch-up considering Spider-Man: No Way Home was largely shot on stages. "I'm obviously over the moon and so excited," Tom said. "Playing Spider-Man is like hanging out with an old pal, and I think we were really restricted with what we could do in the last movie because of COVID. We shot the entire film on stages. Now we're really gonna lean into that old school filmmaking and shoot in real locations, which is why we're starting in Glasgow." Tom went on to tease that "We are gonna use the streets of Glasgow for this massive set piece that we are putting together. It's gonna feel like making ['Homecoming'] again. It's been such a long time that I've done it that it's gonna feel like a breath of fresh air. I think the fans are going to be over the moon with what we're putting together." Not much is known about Brand New Day plot-wise, but it's expected to drop in summer 2026 (July 31, specifically) and stars Zendaya, Jacob Batalon, Jon Bernthal, and Sadie Sink in her Marvel debut.

I think we were really restricted with what we could do in the last movie because of COVID; we shot the entire film on stages," he was quoted as saying by Deadline. "Now, we're really gonna lean into that old-school filmmaking and shoot in real locations, which is why we're starting in Glasgow...

Tom Holland says 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' will feel like 'old times' with return to classic filmmaking
Tom Holland is donning the Spidey suit once again, and this time, he's promising something that feels both familiar and refreshingly different. The actor recently shared his excitement about Spider-Man: Brand New Day, teasing a back-to-basics approach that harkens back to classic cinema. Speaking with the YouTube channel Flip Your Wig, Holland described the upcoming installment as a 'breath of fresh air.' 'I'm obviously over the moon and so excited,' he said. 'Playing Spider-Man is like hanging out with an old pal.' After the high-concept multiversal chaos of No Way Home, which left Peter Parker erased from the memories of those closest to him, Brand New Day appears poised to reboot the hero's journey in a more grounded fashion. A key part of that reset? Filmmaking that steps out of the studio and back into the streets.
