Spider-Man: Brand New Day Scene Censored in India — and It Could Be a Spoiler
CBFC cleared the Marvel film with a UA 13+ rating and ordered cuts to a kissing scene and objectionable language.
- Spider-Man: Brand New Day hits Indian theaters on Thursday, July 30, though Sony Pictures confirmed the film will bypass IMAX, appearing instead on premium large-format screens for the big-screen experience.
- The decision stems from Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, which releases two weeks earlier and was shot entirely using IMAX cameras, securing an exclusive IMAX run across several markets, including India.
- Ahead of release, the Central Board of Film Certification cleared the film with a UA 13+ certificate while mandating removal of an eight-second lip-lock sequence and muting objectionable language in audio and subtitles.
- National multiplex chains PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis sold approximately 3.19 lakh tickets in advance, generating nearly Rs 16 crore in gross collections as India emerges as a key overseas market.
- Early screenings begin on Wednesday, July 29, via an Amazon Prime promotion. Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, the film marks Tom Holland's return as the Marvel superhero alongside Zendaya and Jacob Batalon.
