Tom Holland was hospitalized on Friday after suffering a mild concussion while filming Spider-Man: Brand New Day in Glasgow, Scotland. The 29-year-old actor was treated at a local hospital following what sources described as a stunt mishap and has since been released. Production on the highly anticipated fourth solo Spider-Man film was immediately suspended as a precaution.
Filming for the movie came to a halt after Holland’s injury, with sources confirming he will take a break from the set for several days. The actor is expected to return to filming soon, but Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios have scheduled a meeting for Monday to adjust the production timeline. No other cast or crew members were injured during the incident that occurred at the Glasgow filming location.
According to TMZ, Holland’s incident could shake up the timeline for the blockbuster sequel, which is currently slated for release on July 31, 2026. The movie represents a critical project for both Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios, coming nearly five years after Spider-Man: No Way Home became Sony’s highest-grossing film of all time with $1.91 billion in worldwide ticket sales. The upcoming film is also Marvel Studios’ only major release before Avengers: Doomsday arrives in December 2026.
Production continues despite setback as studios assess impact
Despite the injury, Holland was reportedly seen attending a charity event over the weekend with his fiancée and co-star Zendaya, though he left early after feeling unwell. The charity dinner was for The Brothers Trust, an organization run by Holland and his family. His father, Dominic Holland, told reporters at the event that Tom would be away from the set “for a while” to recover properly.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day began principal photography in Glasgow in early August 2025, marking Holland’s return to the iconic role after a four-year gap. The film is being directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, who previously helmed Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings for Marvel Studios. This marks a departure from Jon Watts, who directed the previous three Holland Spider-Man films.

The movie features an ensemble cast including Zendaya returning as MJ, along with Jacob Batalon as Ned Leeds and Mark Ruffalo reprising his role as Bruce Banner. New additions to the franchise include Sadie Sink, Jon Bernthal, and Liza Colon-Zayas in undisclosed roles. The film takes its title from a significant Marvel Comics storyline that deals with Spider-Man’s secret identity.
Production sources have emphasized that the injury is being treated as a minor setback, but the meeting scheduled for Monday will determine any necessary adjustments to the filming schedule. The movie represents the beginning of a new trilogy for Holland’s Spider-Man character, following the dramatic conclusion of Spider-Man: No Way Home where Doctor Strange’s spell erased Peter Parker from the world’s memory.
