Tom Holland's new 'Spider-Man' movie gets a title: 'Brand New Day'
Tom Holland's new 'Spider-Man' movie gets a title: 'Brand New Day' Show Caption Hide Caption 'Across the Spider-Verse': Miles Morales meets new faces in sequel Miles Morales (voiced by Shameik Moore), meets fellow Spider-people old and new in the animated sequel 'Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.' USA TODAY LAS VEGAS – Tom Holland might not officially be on the massive 'Avengers: Doomsday' cast roster – at least not yet – but his young web-swinger is definitely coming back to the big screen next year. On Monday, his fourth film as the Marvel superhero received a brand-new title – 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' – and a release date of July 31, 2026. Director Destin Daniel Cretton ("Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings") was on hand to make the announcement at CinemaCon, the annual convention for theater owners and studios, while Holland sent in a video message from "across the world" where he's filming another project. Holland called the movie "a fresh start" for his main character, after Peter Parker sacrificed his identity to save his friends in the cliffhanger of "Spider-Man: No Way Home." Principal photography is set to start this summer on "Brand New Day," and while in pre-production, "daily, we're nerding out over the suit, how to swing, how to create an emotional story and a ride we haven't seen before," Cretton said.

"It feels a little bit like early brainwashing but there is something about this character," Cretton said, adding that his own obsession came from Peter Parker's "messy humanity," which "made me believe the hero behind the mask wasn't so different from me." After debuting as teenage Peter Parker alongside Chadwick Boseman's Black Panther in 2016's 'Captain America: Civil War' Holland headlined a trio of 'Spider-Man' films – 2017's 'Homecoming,' 2019's 'Far From Home' and 2021's 'No Way Home' – and also appeared in the 'Avengers' blockbusters 'Infinity War' and 'Endgame.' The final animated 'Spider-Verse' movie gets a release date In other Spider-news, the anticipated 'Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse,' the third and final installment in the acclaimed animated trilogy, snagged a release date as well: June 4, 2027. The movie again features Shameik Moore voicing Brooklyn teen Miles Morales and Hailee Stainfeld as Gwen Stacy, aka Spider-Gwen, Miles' pal from an alternate dimension. The original 2018 film, 'Into the Spider-Verse,' won an Academy Award for best animated feature, while the sequel 'Across the Spider-Verse' was one of the top-grossing films of 2023. Like the two other 'Spider-Verse' films, the third movie will 'break the boundaries of animation again,' said producer Phil Lord. 'Beyond' picks up exactly where the second film left off with a cliffhanger, as Miles confronts a different version of himself from a parallel world, where he's the supervillain Prowler (Jharrel Jerome). Lord also introduced a first look at the new film, a trippy animated montage featuring Miles battling the Prowler, The Spot (Jason Schwartzman) running destructively amok, and Miles reuniting with Gwen, plus a voiceover from Miles: "Everybody keeps trying to tell me how my story will go. I'm going to do my own thing."
