Marvel Studios has officially announced the release date for its upcoming film, Spider-Man: Brand New Day, which is set to hit theatres on July 31, 2026. The film will mark the beginning of a new chapter for Peter Parker in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), following the dramatic conclusion of Spider-Man: No Way Home.
A Fresh Start for Peter Parker as Spider-Man
Tom Holland’s Spider-Man is set for a significant shift in his storyline, with Brand New Day introducing a fresh perspective on the web-slinging hero’s journey.

The new series is expected to explore a different phase of his life, potentially distancing itself from previous storylines while maintaining the essence of the beloved superhero.

Director Destin Daniel Cretton, known for his work on Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, has been officially announced as the director of the film. Cretton made the revelation during CinemaCon in Las Vegas this week, confirming that the film will begin production soon.
