The world of superheroes is about to get a whole lot more exciting. With the new Superman movie on the horizon and the Avengers: Doom’s Day cast announcement, fans are eagerly waiting for the next big thing. And now, Sony Pictures has dropped a bombshell: the title of the fourth Spider-Man film starring Tom Holland has been finalized, and it’s called Spider-Man: Brand New Day.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the announcement was made at the CinemaCon festival, where director Destin Daniel Cretton expressed his excitement about the project. Cretton, who has previously directed Shang-Chi and The Legend of the Ten Rings, is a self-proclaimed fan of the Spider-Man character and loves the humor of Peter Parker.
So, when can we expect to see Spider-Man: Brand New Day in theaters? Mark your calendars for July 31, 2026. The film’s release date was announced alongside its title, and fans are already speculating about what the new movie will bring.
In a video segment at CinemaCon, Tom Holland thanked fans and promised that Spider-Man: Brand New Day would be a new beginning. Director Cretton echoed this sentiment, saying that the film would be a wild ride unlike anything audiences have seen before.
But here’s the interesting part: Spider-Man: Brand New Day is inspired by a 2008 comic book storyline where a universe-changing event causes everyone to forget Spider-Man’s true identity. Sound familiar? That’s right – we saw a similar plot twist at the end of Spider-Man: No Way Home, where the world forgot Peter Parker’s identity.
The screenplay for Spider-Man: Brand New Day was written by Eric Sommers and Chris McKenna, who also penned Spider-Man: No Way Home. The film is part of Sony’s partnership with Disney, which means that its characters could potentially become part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
And if that’s not enough Spider-Man news for you, Sony Pictures also announced the release date for the animated threequel, Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse. The film is set to hit theaters on June 4, 2027, four years after the release of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.
