The upcoming Spider-Man: Brand New Day is already creating a huge buzz among fans worldwide. Officially announced at CinemaCon in Las Vegas on March 31, 2025, this next chapter in the Spider-Man saga will hit theaters on July 31, 2026, marking the highly anticipated return of Tom Holland as Peter Parker.
What is Spider-Man: Brand New Day About?
Following the emotional finale of No Way Home, Brand New Day sees Peter Parker attempting to rebuild his life and rekindle his relationship with MJ. Now forgotten by the world, Peter faces the daunting task of rediscovering his place in New York while balancing his responsibilities as Spider-Man.
Rumored Villains: Who Will Spider-Man Face?
Marvel has kept official details under wraps, but multiple rumors hint at an impressive and unexpected line-up of villains:
Savage Hulk Might Be the Main Antagonist
The biggest rumor swirling online is that Bruce Banner could lose control of his alter ego, forcing Spider-Man into an epic showdown against the raging Savage Hulk. Read more about the Hulk’s rumored MCU future here.
Return of Scorpion
Previously teased in earlier Spider-Man films, Scorpion is expected to finally step into the spotlight as one of Peter’s major threats in Brand New Day.
Boomerang Could Bring Chaos
A lesser-known but comic-favorite villain, Boomerang, may appear and add his trademark chaos to the streets of New York.
Tombstone and Gang Wars
Tombstone’s potential inclusion points to a darker, grittier street-level story involving gang wars and organized crime.
Other Potential Villains
Unconfirmed reports also mention Tarantula, Lady Chameleon, Mr. Negative, Silver Samurai, and Madam Hydra as possible secondary villains, hinting at a much larger conspiracy and the potential formation of the Sinister Six.
How Does Brand New Day Connect to the MCU?
Spider-Man: Brand New Day directly continues Tom Holland’s Spider-Man storyline in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The film draws inspiration from the iconic comic arc where Peter makes a deal to erase his secret identity from everyone’s memory — perfectly matching the setup from No Way Home.
Spider-Man: Brand New Day Release Date
Marvel Studios has confirmed the release date for July 31, 2026. Filming is expected to begin in mid-August 2025 in the UK, with a teaser trailer likely dropping in early 2026.
What to Expect from Brand New Day
While fans will have to wait to see the final product, the rumored villains and emotional storyline suggest Brand New Day will be one of the most ambitious Spider-Man films yet. Whether it’s facing the Hulk, battling street-level foes like Scorpion, or reuniting with MJ, Tom Holland’s Peter Parker is set for an epic return.
