Los Angeles [US], August 4 (ANI): Tom Holland's 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' is officially swinging back to the screens. The actor recently took to Instagram to confirm that shooting for the film has begun. Tom Holland shared pictures of himself dressed in the brand new Spidey suit in the BTS moments. He could be seen discussing a sequence with the team while standing on top of what appears to be military-like machinery with a stunt wire attached to his body.

Some even expressed curiosity about Holland's new costume. The makers recently dropped the first-look glimpse of the superhero suit, with a visible raised black webbing against a bright red-and-blue cover. Shortly after, Tom Holland gave fans a clearer look at his Spider-Man costume. 'We ready?' he said in the teaser video as he seems to be on the sets of the film, sporting a more classic Spider-Man ensemble that resembled those of Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield.

Murkowski leaves door open to scenario of caucusing with Democrats
Sen. Lisa Murkowski is leaving the door open to caucusing with Democrats if they managed to produce enough midterm upsets to create a 50-50 tie in 2027. Why it matters: The Alaska Republican is serious about putting her state first, and takes pride in practical wins for her constituents — and bucking her party when necessary. "There is some openness to exploring something different than the status quo," she told the GD Politics podcast. She called caucusing with Democrats as an independent an "interesting hypothetical," but added she has plenty of disagreements with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer's (D-N.Y.) conference. Zoom in: Murkowski is on a book tour for her memoir that goes public tomorrow, Far From Home. "I call myself a Republican because of the values I hold, such as personal responsibility, small government, a strong national defense, and the individual's right to make her own choices," she writes in the book's epilogue. In an interview with Axios, she dismissed the self-imposed July 4 deadline the White House and Hill leadership are gunning to meet as "arbitrary." "I don't want us to be able to say we met the date, but our policies are less than we would want." "Why are we afraid of a conference? Oh my gosh," she added. Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) and House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) are wary of going to conference negotiations with both chambers' tight majorities and the upcoming debt ceiling "X-date." Between the lines: Murkowski also shares some eye-catching personal anecdotes in the book, which spans from before her historic write-in 2010 Senate win through her 2021 vote to convict Trump of impeachment and the overturning of Roe in 2022. Trump once referred to her as "that bitch Murkowski" in a phone call with her late colleague Rep. Don Young, Murkowski writes. "You have nice hair," Trump told her after a 90-minute meeting about Alaska priorities in the Oval Office during his first term. Zoom out: Murkowski shares — in almost agonizing detail — her reasoning and internal debate behind some of the biggest moments of her career. That includes: Choosing to face nepotism charges to accept her initial appointment to the Senate from her father, who was governor at the time. Working with Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) to allow the late Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) to have his iconic thumbs down moment, preserving the Affordable Care Act in 2017. Joining multiple bipartisan "gangs" to pass legislation with important wins for Alaska. Voting against Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation to the Supreme Court. Her decisions to first acquit and then convict Trump of his two rounds of impeachment charges. The bottom line: The timing of the book is not meant to signal anything, Murkowski told Axios. She just finally got around to telling the story, with the help of Charles Wohlforth, of when she won a write-in campaign for Senate 15 years ago after losing in the GOP primary. "We joke many times that we tried to stop the book at multiple points," Murkowski told us, "but then, you know, you've got an impeachment or you have an insurrection. And it just seemed like there was not an ending point."

Sen. Lisa Murkowski wants to slow down on Trump's "big, beautiful bill"
Sen. Lisa Murkowski thinks the Senate is rushing on President Trump's budget bill, and is asking why her colleagues are "afraid" of conference negotiations. Why it matters: The Alaska Republican is publishing a memoir this week, intended to tell of her historic write-in ballot win in 2010, but going on through her vote to convict Trump of impeachment. She finds herself once again at the center — of attention and political parties. "I don't want us to be able to say we met the date, but our policies are less than we would want," Murkowski told Axios in an interview late last week. "It's an arbitrary date," she said on the self-imposed July 4 deadline the White House and Hill leadership are gunning to meet for the "one big, beautiful bill." "Why are we afraid of a conference? Oh my gosh," she added. Leadership has been wary of the the lengthy formal process of reconciling differences between House and Senate bills. Zoom out: The reconciliation process will allow the Senate to pass the package along party lines. Murkowski thinks it is a problematic move, warning that all the same debates will be had again when power shifts, "with an effort by the other side to flip what we are putting in place." She is working to ensure changes to Medicaid do not overly hurt Alaska communities because of their outdated reporting systems, but also touted "some really great things" in the bill. Some of her key allies for bipartisanship have now left the chamber. "There are new allies cropping up," Murkowski said, "But yes, it is getting harder." The big picture: Murkowski has long been a thorn in GOP leadership's side. She is serious about putting Alaska first, and takes pride in practical wins for her state — and bucking her party when necessary. The style has put her in the line of fire. It has also kept her in her Senate seat despite the Tea Party in 2010 and now MAGA threats. Murkowski describes a direct link between the two big GOP movements of her career. "The so-called MAGA movement, this personality cult that has ripped us apart, was born, with another name, during the first two years after President Obama was elected," Murkowski writes in Far From Home. "The virulent spread of angry populism transformed American politics." What she's saying: Murkowski's reluctance to enter politics and her frequent loneliness in D.C. — and in her party—are evident. "I will be honest, sometimes, it is exhausting," Murkowski told Axios about her political role. She finds it "tiring" to be swarmed by reporters just because most of her colleagues' votes are more predictable than hers. "I would be less than honest with you, if I say, 'Oh yeah, every day, I wake up with great excitement and much energy to go on and conquer the world,'" she said.

Marvel's ‘Vision' Lands ‘Schitt's Creek' Star Emily Hampshire as E.D.I.T.H.
Vision may have met his match. Marvel Studios' spin-off series about Vision has landed 'Schitt's Creek' star Emily Hampshire as E.D.I.T.H., the Stark Industries artificial intelligence introduced in 2019's 'Spider-Man: Far From Home.' She joins Paul Bettany, who is reprising his role as the now-reincarnated synthezoid character (who is the physical manifestation of another Stark Industries AI, Jarvis). More from Variety 'The Fantastic Four' Director Matt Shakman Reveals the 'Magical' Comics That Inspired the Film in 'Small and Large Ways' (EXCLUSIVE) Marvel Studios Skipping Comic-Con Hall H Panel for 2025 As Comic Book Movies Scale Back Releases, Marvel and DC Look to This Summer to Decide the Future of Superhero Cinema In 'Far From Home,' E.D.I.T.H. is introduced as a gift that Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) bequeaths to Peter Parker (Tom Holland) after Stark sacrifices his life in 'Avengers: Endgame.' (The name stands for 'Even Dead, I'm The Hero.') Peter controls E.D.I.T.H. through a pair of high-tech sunglasses, which he unwittingly gives to the film's villain, Mysterio (Jake Gyllenhaal), before retrieving them at the end of the movie. The glasses are confiscated after Peter's identity as Spider-Man is revealed to world, and E.D.I.T.H.'s ultimate fate is left unresolved. It's unclear whether Hampshire is just lending her voice to the role or will be embodying it as well, but the character will be one of several AI to populate the series. James Spader is reprising his role as Ultron, the villain from 2015's 'Avengers: Age of Ultron,' and T'Nia Miller ('The Diplomat') is playing Jocasta, another robotic character from the Marvel Comics. Other co-stars include Todd Stashwick ('Star Trek: Picard') and Ruaridh Mollica ('Ridley'). More to come.
