Whenever a new superhero movie is gearing up for its release, audiences take a great deal of interest in the costumes that will be featured. Costumes can be a hot talking point even when the hero (or heroes) in question are returning for yet another installment in a long-running franchise. There\u2019s always the possibility filmmakers make tweaks to the design, which has been a staple of the genre for years. Obviously, this creates new merchandising opportunities for the studio to capitalize on, but from a narrative perspective, a fresh costume could be used as a visual cue to illustrate a character\u2019s growth. That\u2019s the case for Spider-Man: Brand New Day<\/a>, which ushers in a new era for Peter Parker on the big screen.<\/p>\n

When Brand New Day started filming last year, Marvel unveiled Tom Holland\u2019s new MCU Spider-Man costume, which pays homage to Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield<\/a>. And while this\u2019ll be Holland\u2019s main suit for the movie, it won\u2019t be the only one he wears. The X account Hulk News shared images of Brand New Day Funko Pops, one of which depicts Peter Parker in the Spider-Man suit from the end of No Way Home. Check out the post in the space below:<\/p>\n

Why Spider-Man Has Two Different Costumes in Brand New Day<\/p>\n

The suits on the two Spider-Man figures are clearly distinct from each other; the one on the bottom is designed to mimic its raised webbing, reminiscent of Maguire\u2019s costume from Sam Raimi\u2019s trilogy<\/a>. There is a webbing pattern on the No Way Home suit, though it isn\u2019t as distinct. Since Marvel and Sony made a big deal out of spotlighting Holland\u2019s new suit ahead of production, some fans are probably wondering why there\u2019s new merchandise featuring the character\u2019s old threads. The answer likely lies in the way Brand New Day is said to be constructed.<\/p>\n

It has been confirmed that Brand New Day is set four years after the events of No Way Home<\/a>, but the entire film isn\u2019t going to take place after that sizable time jump. There\u2019s long been speculation that Brand New Day includes a montage of Spider-Man battling against \u201csmaller\u201d villains, a sequence that will harken back to the opening of The Fantastic Four: First Steps. The idea is that it will be an efficient way to catch viewers up on what Spider-Man has been up to since they last saw him, establishing the foundation for Peter\u2019s character arc. Based on the Funkos, that montage could start with Spider-Man wearing his No Way Home suit before he changes to the new one to illustrate the passage of time.<\/p>\n

It\u2019ll be interesting to see if Brand New Day spends any time delving into specific reasons why Peter felt it necessary to make a new suit. In the past, some comic book movie sequels have provided in-universe explanations for making changes to the costume (i.e. Bruce Wayne wants to be able to turn his head in The Dark Knight). Based on Holland\u2019s comments, it sounds like Peter was inspired by his experiences in No Way Home, fighting alongside variants of himself. The new costume deliberately incorporates details Peter \u201cthinks are really cool,\u201d so this could be \u201cPeter 1\u2019s\u201d way to emulate his \u201cbig brothers\u201d and carry their example.<\/p>\n

That would provide a bit of emotion and depth behind the costume. It\u2019s clear from the Brand New Day trailer that Peter Parker isn\u2019t in the best place emotionally, struggling to adjust to his self-imposed isolated reality. As difficult as that existence is, he has a responsibility to keep New York safe \u2014 just like Peter 2 and Peter 3 continued to keep their worlds safe despite all the challenges they faced. Within the context of the MCU and the larger Brand New Day story, making Holland\u2019s new costume resemble the Maguire and Garfield versions could be a way to keep Spider-Man\u2019s core ethos at the forefront of his mind.<\/p>\n
