Spider-Man’s Brand New Direction: Tom Holland to Kick Off a Post-‘Home’ Era

Tom Holland’s next Spider-Man film will flip the past Jon Watts’ trilogy on its head, flipping the script in Phase 6 of the MCU.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day will see Tom Holland return for his fourth solo outing as Peter Parker, with Sadie Sink joining the cast in a mystery role that marks her MCU debut.

Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures are again jointly producing the Spidey film, which is expected to begin filming later this year. The potentially problematic title Brand New Day teases a dramatic reset for the web-slinger, and potentially the entire franchise.

Marvel Studios has officially confirmed that Spider-Man: Brand New Day will mark a major shift for the franchise: ending the long-standing tradition of including “Home” in the titles of Tom Holland’s solo Spider-Man films.

“I’m spending my time exploring the next stage of this amazing character with a team of the most incredible artists in the world…We’re all, just daily, nerding out over the suit, how to swing, how to create an event, an emotional story, and a ride that we haven’t really seen before,” said new Spidey director Destin Daniel Cretton, best known for one of the MCU’s lesser performing films Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day swings into theaters on July 31, 2026.
