Tom Holland Hopes to Usher In the ‘Next Chapter’ of ‘Spider-Man’ Franchise After 10 Years in MCU

Holland said his rejected pitch helped shape Peter Parker’s changing powers and that he wants to help set up Spider-Man’s next chapter.

  • On July 31, 2026, Tom Holland reprises his role as Peter Parker in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, the highly anticipated fourth installment of the franchise.
  • Holland actively contributed to the script, telling Empire he and producers met every two weeks to pitch ideas, including his tagline pitch, "Spider-Puberty."
  • Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige said the film focuses on "classic elements of Spider-Man," with direction by Destin Daniel Cretton and cast including Zendaya, Jon Bernthal, Sadie Sink, and Liza Col.
  • For the next chapter, Holland hopes to help establish a successor, potentially featuring Miles Morales, Spider-Gwen, or Spider-Woman.
  • Inspired by Robert Downey's mentorship, Holland hopes to support the transition when the time comes. "I would be so content swinging off into the sunset," he said.
