Tom Holland is Spider-Man 🕷

Yeah there is something about it that's really not working for me.

Just days before Holland spoke to AFP, photos circulated of him shooting an action sequence for "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" in Glasgow, with the Scottish city standing in for New York.

For Holland, donning the Spidey suit for his seventh overall Marvel movie, it still "feels like the first time."

"Yesterday, I was on top of a tank driving down the high street in Glasgow, in front of thousands of fans, and it was awesome," he said.

"It was so incredible, it was exciting, and exhilarating, and it felt fresh."

The film is due out late July, just two weeks after "The Odyssey."
For now, Holland is excited to keep imbuing his Spider-Man with that youthful vigor, which "really is just who I am -- it's kind of like a heightened version of myself."

"It's very important to never lose that eagerness to play," he says.
 
The script for Brand New Day should be better!
I don't know about the script of The Odyssey, but the original poem by Homer (alongside the Iliad) is one of the most precious pieces of history on earth and a must-read. If you get across a copy of Robert Fagles' translation, or any other translations for that matter, you should jump on it without hesitation, epic read.
 
When asked about this, he 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.

“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.

“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].”

Whilst The Impossible star was excited by what they have coming in the newest film, he added: “In terms of my future in the character beyond this film, I don't know the answer to that.”

Hi Tom 👋
 
There’s been a lot of merch and promotion of Symbiote Spider-Man for quite a while - even in the comics. What could it mean!?

Funko Pop News!: “Now live! GameStop exclusive Symbiote Spider-Man POP! Is now available at the link below, with the Funko Shop!

Yeah, I could see Peter coming into contact with the symbiote during Brand New Day, Doomsday, or Secret Wars. Maybe toward the end of Secret Wars, after Maguire’s Spider-Man is gone, and to set up the next Holland Spider-Man film?
 
I'd like it to be Secret Wars.

No chance of this, but I'd love if they kept filming after Brand New Day and did a Spider-Man on Battleworld movie to scratch that cosmic itch Sony wanted (and then air it between Doomsday and Secret Wars).
 
I read that you were doing some research ahead of Spider-Man: Brand New Day to find out what fans wanted in a fourth Spider-Man film. But I’d love to know what you’re personally hoping to see from another go as Spidey?

For me, I want to do justice to Peter Parker's character. I want to bring the fans something that's really worthy of their time, and I’m very grateful for their investment in our franchise. I don't mean financially, I mean the time to go to the cinema three times. That's a big ask.

I did a lot of sneaky research online—looking at what people were saying in the interim between Spider-Man: No Way Home and now Spider-Man: Brand New Day. I really just kind of put together a vibe of what people were looking for and went to Marvel and said, “This is what I think we should be doing.” And I think that's exactly what we are doing. So, it's been a really fun process developing the movie. It's the first time I've ever been allowed in that part of the process, and it's definitely a stressful experience. But I think where we've got to, now that we're shooting, we are shooting absolute gold.
Does it feel validating to be in that room, and help shape the film?

I think so. I have such a good understanding of who Peter Parker is, and I have been so lucky that the fan base has been so vocal about what they love from the franchise. We've been able to really lean into those things and capitalize on those things. So, I love standing up for the character, being in the room, and making sure that the decisions we make are what's best for Peter Parker because he really does feel like one of my best friends. It's a really weird experience diving into the character again. It just feels like you're hanging out with an old pal.
 


Tom Holland: “It really feels like we aren’t making the fourth movie. We’re making the first movie in the next chapter... This is ‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’. This is a rebirth. This is something completely new.”

Tom Holland: “I really like the idea that he’s trying to be his big brothers, that he looks up to them and he sees little details on their suits that he thinks are really cool, and now that he is making his own suit and isn’t part of this bigger team”
