In October 2024, Tom Holland, who has played Spider-Man in six Marvel films, confirmed that the movie would be filming in the summer of 2025.
“Next summer, we start shooting,” he shared during an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon at the time. “Everything’s good to go. We’re nearly there.”
Holland noted that the movie, which is set to be released in July 2026, is “super exciting.”

“We have a creative and we have a pitch and a draft, which is excellent,” Holland said on an episode of the “Rich Roll” podcast. “It needs work, but the writers are doing a great job. I read it three weeks ago and it really lit a fire in me. Zendaya and I sat down and read it together, and we at times were bouncing around the living room. Like, this is a real movie worthy of the fans’ respect.”
