The news comes days after Holland confirmed his Spider-Man 4 involvement in an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. Holland also revealed when cameras begin shooting.

“It’s happening,” Holland told Fallon about Spider-Man 4. “Next summer, we start shooting. Everything’s good to go. We’re nearly there. Super exciting. I can’t wait.”

Tom Holland Confirms Spider-Man 4, Talks Hiding Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield Cameos and BERO

Holland has been on a promotional tour with his non-alcoholic beer brand Bero. However, the press run has become a de facto Spider-Man 4 news tour. Holland teased that fans will love what’s coming for Spider-Man in a Good Morning America interview.

“The idea is crazy,” Holland said. “It’s a little different to anything we’ve done before, but I think the fans are gonna really respond to it.”

The summer of 2026 will go down as the “Summer of Tom Holland.” One week before Spider-Man 4, Holland will star alongside Matt Damon in Christopher Nolan’s new movie. Plot details remain scarce, but Nolan’s movie opens theatrically in IMAX on July 17, 2026. That’s not a lot of time for Nolan’s movie to make money, so it’s likely not going to sit well with him or Universal. It’s likely one of these movies will shift their release dates so they don’t cannibalize each other.

Before his fourth solo outing, Holland will likely appear in the next Avengers movie, though his involvement has not been confirmed. Directed by the Russo Brothers, Avengers: Doomsday arrives on May 1, 2026. Fans will be eager to see if Holland’s Spider-Man interacts with Doctor Doom, played by Robert Downey Jr.

Spider-Man 4 cast adds Stranger Things star Sadie Sink to Tom Holland MCU movie
Sadie Sink stands outside of a trailer in Stranger Things.

Spider-Man 4 is turning to Hawkins, Indiana, for some star power. Stranger Things actress Sadie Sink has been cast in Spider-Man 4.

Per Deadline, Sink joins a cast that includes Tom Holland, who returns as Peter Parker.
Sink's role is expected to be "significant." Though her role has not been specified, some theories tie the actress to the X-Men. Jeff Sneider reported in December that Sink is being considered to play Jean Grey in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Because of Sink's red hair, the actress could potentially play a version of Mary Jane Watson. All of these casting rumors remain unconfirmed.
Sink is best known for playing Max Mayfield on Netflix's Stranger Things. Sink recently wrapped production on the fifth and final season, which arrives later this year. Sink can be seen in O'Dessa, Hulu's post-apocalyptic musical streaming on March 20.
The X-Men are coming to the MCU sooner rather than later. Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige revealed that the "Mutant Era" has begun, thanks to Deadpool & Wolverine. Grey is a significant character in the X-Men, so introducing her in a story with Spider-Man makes some sense.

Academy Award-winning director Christopher Nolan (Oppenheimer) has garnered plenty of hype over his next movie, The Odyssey. Given Nolan's filmography, it was a surprise that he chose to create an epic Greek fantasy next. However, since this is Christopher Nolan, director of hits such as The Dark Knight, Inception, Interstellar, and Dunkirk, his next film was guaranteed to become a hit blockbuster event, no matter what it was.

Since The Odyssey is still in production, details surrounding Nolan's new epic have been kept under wraps. However, enough has been revealed to show that the movie will be his biggest project yet. To clear up any confusion surrounding the film, here are all the facts and rumors surrounding The Odyssey shared so far.
When will The Odyssey come out?
It was announced on X that The Odyssey is scheduled to premiere in theaters on July 17, 2026. However, don't expect another "Barbenheimer" double-feature phenomenon, as no other blockbuster films are currently set to debut alongside The Odyssey.

Marvel and Sony’s Spider-Man 4 has a new release date

Last fall, Marvel Studios and Sony confirmed that Spider-Man 4 will be coming in summer 2026. However, there's been a slight change in plans. While the original release date for the next Spider-Man was July 24, 2026, it's now been pushed back to Friday, July 31, 2026.

No official reason was given for the change, but The Hollywood Reporter noted that this will give Spider-Man 4 some additional breathing room from Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, which is slated to arrive on July 17, 2026. Tom Holland is actually going to be in both movies, but the extent of his role in Nolan's film has yet to be revealed. Holland has been the MCU's Spider-Man since Captain America: Civil War in 2016, and he's also starred in a wildly successful trilogy of Spider-Man films.
