Tom Holland knows what Spider-Man fans want.
Going into Spider-Man: Brand New Day, the English actor told LADBible he wanted to make sure the next film appeals to viewers. To do so, Holland admitted he’s been scouring the internet to see exactly what fans want from his fourth Spider-Man movie — while bringing those ideas to the team working on the project.
“I have been actively sifting through the internet and trying to best understand what it is that the fans want from a Spider-Man movie, and that’s been my driving force in these pitch meetings,” he said. “I think the producers, at times were like, absolutely sick of me, but I think it’s really important, because we make these movies for [the fans].”
As for how long he’ll play Peter Parker, Holland said, “I think with anything, it’s all about what’s in front of you, and right now what’s in front of us is Spider-Man: Brand New Day, and focusing on making that movie worthy of the last film.”
“In terms of my future in the character beyond this film, I don’t know the answer to that,” he added. However, with Brand New Day on the horizon, The Odyssey star said he’s had a hand in designing the brand-new Spider-Man suit that Sony revealed in August.
“What’s been really fun about this most recent movie is designing the suit and being a part of that process and understanding what we wanted to try and achieve,” Holland said, adding that he narrowed in on “the story behind the suit” while understanding details like “why the suit is red and blue.”
With filming on Brand New Day underway, Holland has been feeding dire Spider-Man fans content surrounding the film. He shared a few photos from set in early August while sharing what it’s been like to return to the character in a separate social post.
“You know, it’s funny putting the suit on. It feels different this time somehow. It’s also the first time we’ve ever had fans on set for day one. So, it’s really exciting to share this with them,” Holland explained. “I’m just going to do my best. Hopefully get it right. No pressure.”
Spider-Man: Brand New Day swings into theaters on July 31, 2026.
