Slipping into the Spider-Man suit is nothing new for Tom Holland, but he admits putting it on for the first time for the upcoming Spider-Man: Brand New Day felt “different this time.”
Filming for the fourth Sony/Marvel film began earlier this month, and the actor took to Instagram on Sunday to share a recap of “day one” back in the iconic super suit.
“My fourth ever day one on Spider-Man,” he said in the minute-long video (below). “You know, it’s funny putting the suit on. It feels different this time somehow. It’s also the first time we’ve ever had fans on set for day one. So, it’s really exciting to share this with them.”
Holland added, “I’m just going to do my best. Hopefully get it right. No pressure.”
On Aug. 3, The Crowded Room actor revealed his brand-new Spider-Man costume, which depicts a larger spider on his chest, compared to his previous suits in Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017), Far From Home (2019) and No Way Home (2021).
At the end of the new Instagram video, Holland says after doing a stunt, “Wow, that was a really good one. That felt sick.”
In addition to Holland, it was previously announced that Mark Ruffalo would be returning to the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Bruce Banner/the Hulk in Brand New Day, as well as Michael Mando as the Scorpion and Jon Bernthal as the Punisher. Sadie Sink was also added to the cast.
Most plot details are being kept under wraps on the Destin Daniel Cretton-directed superhero pic, though Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers returned to pen the script. At the end of No Way Home, Spider-Man’s real identity as Peter Parker was erased from everyone’s memory, including friends, family and his girlfriend, MJ (Zendaya).
Spider-Man: Brand New Day hits theaters on July 31, 2026.
