15 pictures as Glasgow streets being transformed for Spider-Man filming

STREETS in Glasgow have started being transformed ahead of filming for the next Spider-Man blockbuster.

Filming for the next instalment in the web-slinger's story, starring Tom Holland, is to take over Glasgow next month. 

Production for the next instalment in the Spider-Man franchise will shut down a number of streets in the city centre.

Spider-Man 4, officially titled Spider-Man: Brand New Day, is set for a July 2026 release.

Cameras are set to begin rolling in Glasgow on August 1, and some areas have started to receive a makeover.

Here are photos captured by our photographer, Colin Mearns, today, which show the start of the work

The long-anticipated movie will be helmed by Shang-Chi director Destin Daniel Cretton, with reports suggesting that Stranger Things actress Sadie Sink has been cast opposite Holland.

Plot details remain under wraps, but long-time Spider-Man franchise producer Amy Pascal, while appearing on Deadline's Behind the Lens podcast in December last year, teased what we can expect from the story.

She said: “We have to deal with the fact that he decided he was going to give up being Peter Parker [in No Way Home], and that he was going to focus on being Spider-Man because being Peter Parker was too hard.” 

Tom Holland revealed that Spider-Man 4 will begin filming in the summer of 2025 during an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon back in October last year.

Glasgow City Council have announced a full list of roads set to be impacted by the filming, including major streets such as West Nile Street, Bothwell Street, Ingram Street and Queen Street.
