Tom Holland’s “Spider-Man 4” Set for July 2026 With Destin Daniel Cretton as Director

The date is officially set - Tom Holland’s return as Peter Parker/ Spider-Man will be happening in less than two years, as The Hollywood Reporter reports that the untitled “Spider-Man 4” will be released on July 2026!

Holland’s new Spidey film will presumably pick up where things left off in No Way Home - with a clean slate where the world doesn’t know who Peter Parker is and he continues to soldier on as your friendly neighborhood wallcrawler. The film will be directed by “Shang-Chi and the Legends of the Ten Rings” director Destin Daniel Cretton, and shooting is expected to begin next summer for Tom - whose schedule will also be packed due to filming Christopher Nolan’s new film alongside Matt Damon and possibly for Avengers: Doomsday as well. Both of those movies are also getting 2026 release dates too.

The untitled new Spidey film hits US theaters on July 24, 2026.
