News about Tom Holland's upcoming projects is becoming a bit like buses — you wait for ages, and then suddenly, they all come at once. This seems to be the case right now. A week ago, we reported that the Spider-Man: No Way Home star had read a Spider-Man 4 script with his co-star and girlfriend, Zendaya. Just three days later, we learned that the British actor had secured a major role as the lead in Christopher Nolan's upcoming Universal movie. Now, adding to the Spider-Man news frenzy, THR reports that Sony has set a July 24, 2026 release date for the highly anticipated MCU fourquel, which Destin Daniel Cretton is set to direct.

In a recent interview with Jimmy Fallon, Holland revealed that shooting for Spider-Man 4 is scheduled to begin next summer. After a year-long break following The Crowded Room, Holland is back in the media spotlight and busier than ever. Following the release pattern of Avengers: Endgame and Spider-Man: Far From Home, Spider-Man 4 is set to premiere just a few months after Robert Downey Jr. returns to the MCU in Avengers: Doomsday on May 1, 2026. Additionally, unless there are any changes to the release schedule, Holland will dominate the summer blockbuster season, with his Nolan movie slated to open on July 17, just a week before his return as Spider-Man.

When Spider-Man 4 finally hits theaters, it will have been over four and a half years since the game-changing finale of No Way Home, where the world — and Peter Parker's loved ones — forgot Spidey's true identity. But fans, the wait is almost over — the countdown to our friendly neighborhood Spider-Man swinging back onto our screens has begun! Only 637 days left...
