The continuation of Spider-Man's story in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) has finally been officially announced! The fourth film, still starring Tom Holland, is titled SPIDER-MAN 4: BRAND NEW DAY and was officially introduced at CinemaCon 2025.

As a direct sequel to SPIDER-MAN: NO WAY HOME, this film promises a new chapter in Peter Parker's life. Fans are left curious about the significant changes that will occur, both in terms of the story and the characters involved.

Not only that, this film is also rumored to introduce a new threat that Spider-Man has never faced before. With various surprises prepared, SPIDER-MAN 4: BRAND NEW DAY is set to be one of the most anticipated superhero films in the coming year!

Check out the plot summary and release schedule compiled on Thursday (3/4/2026).

1. Spider-Man (Brand New Day) Film Release Schedule

The film Spider-Man 4: Brand New Day is set to introduce a new chapter in Peter Parker's journey. In terms of the script, Erik Sommers and Chris McKenna, who previously succeeded in writing Spider-Man: No Way Home, have been reappointed to work on the script for this fourth film. With their experience in delivering emotional and surprising stories, fans can expect a deeper and more complex plot.

However, the production of this film has faced some setbacks with a delayed release schedule. Initially planned for an earlier release, Spider-Man 4 is now scheduled to premiere on July 31, 2026. This delay means it will have to compete with several other major films, such as Transformers: Chapter 3 (Paramount) and The Secret Life of Pets 4 (Universal).

Nevertheless, box office analysts from BoxOffice Pro estimate that Spider-Man 4 will still be the highest-grossing film during that period. Considering the three previous Spider-Man films grossed a total of over $3.9 billion globally, expectations for this film remain high. With a combination of a strong story, intriguing villains, and the outstanding performance of Tom Holland as Peter Parker, this film is expected to achieve significant success for Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures.

2. Spider-Man 4 Story Plot

After the dramatic events in Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021), Spider-Man 4: Brand New Day will continue Peter Parker's journey in a world that has forgotten who he is. At the end of the previous film, due to Doctor Strange's spell, all of Peter's closest friends, including MJ (Zendaya) and Ned (Jacob Batalon), have forgotten him.

This film is rumored to draw inspiration from the comic storyline Brand New Day, which is a continuation of One More Day. In the comic version, Peter Parker makes a deal with Mephisto to save Aunt May's life. As a result, his marriage to Mary Jane is erased from history, and the whole world forgets his identity as Spider-Man. Although the film adaptation does not involve Mephisto, a similar concept has occurred in No Way Home, where Peter chooses not to reveal his identity to MJ and Ned again, allowing the world to remain in a state of forgetting him.

3. A New Threat for Spider-Man

Given this situation, Spider-Man 4 is likely to focus on Peter's struggle to adapt to his new identity as someone who is anonymous. He not only has to face new threats from external enemies but also contend with inner turmoil due to feelings of loneliness and the consequences of his own decisions. This presents a deeper emotional challenge compared to previous Spider-Man films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).

4. Exploring Peter Parker's Psychological Side

In addition to delivering action-packed superhero adventures, this film has the potential to explore Peter Parker's psychological side in greater depth. Without the help of Stark Industries technology, without supportive friends, and without a mentor to guide him, Peter truly has to rebuild his life from scratch, just as he did in the comic version.

With a premise that promises new dynamics and more personal challenges for the hero, Spider-Man 4 is predicted to take a more mature direction for Peter Parker's character in the MCU. How he faces his new enemies and whether he will maintain his decision to distance himself from those he loves will all be answered when this film finally hits theaters.
