Spider-Man: Brand New Day is still shooting in the UK, and new photos and footage posted on social media reveal a fresh look at Tom Holland suited up as the web-slinger, alongside Zendaya’s Michelle “MJ” Jones Watson.<\/p>\n
The latter\u00a0appears to be in costume as her character, and the actress being on set alongside Holland’s Spider-Man suggests they will indeed share screens in the upcoming sequel directed by Destin Daniel Cretton. Unfortunately, the set, constructed at London’s Pinewood Studios, was not shown.\u00a0<\/p>\n
While we don’t have the full backstory, it seems\u00a0Holland and Zendaya were on hand to greet fans invited to Spider-Man: Brand New Day’s set. We wouldn’t bank on anything more revealing than this surfacing, as Marvel Studios is being careful to keep the plot under wraps.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Hollywood Reporter<\/a>\u00a0recently spoke with Spider-Man: Homecoming, Far From Home, and No Way Home director Jon Watts. Asked if he’s looking forward to watching the next movie as a fan, the filmmaker said, “Yeah, I can\u2019t wait. It\u2019s going to be so strange for me. I\u2019m still in touch with everyone. Hopefully, Tom is okay. He got hurt a couple weeks ago, but I think he\u2019s going to be fine.”<\/p>\n “So that\u2019s going to be such a surreal experience for me,” Watts continued.\u00a0“I\u2019m nervous, I\u2019m excited and I can\u2019t wait to see what they\u2019re doing.”<\/p>\n Reflecting\u00a0on the secrecy surrounding Spider-Man: No Way Home, he added, “If I had a secret that big again, I feel like I could keep it a secret. But then again, one of the things that leaked was a [DoorDash] delivery to Andrew Garfield\u2019s house in Atlanta. How can you anticipate that? You\u2019d have to force your cast and crew to be on total lockdown. So I don\u2019t know that you could ever be so airtight.”<\/p>\n “What was cool was when we did our first focus tests. No one knew what was going on at all,” he recalled.\u00a0“It was early on in the process before people started to make connections. We got such a pure, genuine, shocked reaction from the crowd. It was amazing.”<\/p>\n Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings\u00a0helmer\u00a0Destin Daniel Cretton directs\u00a0Spider-Man: Brand New Day\u00a0from\u00a0a script by Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers.<\/p>\n Tom Holland plays Spider-Man in a cast that also includes Jon Bernthal (The Punisher), Mark Ruffalo (The Hulk), Zendaya (MJ), Sadie Sink, Michael Mando (The Scorpion), Tramell Tillman, Marvin Jones III (Tombstone), Jacob Batalon (Ned Leeds),\u00a0and Liza Col\u00f3n-Zayas.\u00a0Thunderbolts*\u00a0star Florence Pugh is expected to return as Yelena Belova.<\/p>\n Spider-Man: Brand New Day\u00a0will be released in theaters on\u00a0July 31, 2026.<\/p>\n
