Tom Holland has found himself in the hospital after a stunt went wrong while filming “Spider-Man: Brand New Day.” Reports from Deadline reveal that Holland was checked for a concussion following an incident on set, prompting a temporary pause in filming. While he wasn’t admitted, Holland took time off as a precaution before returning to the production of his fourth feature film as the iconic superhero. The actor is expected to be back on set shortly.
Details of the incident have emerged, with The Sun reporting that Holland “cracked his head in a fall.” Interestingly, his stunt double, a woman, also required medical attention, though specifics on her injuries remain unclear. Fortunately, Holland has bounced back enough to attend public events only days after the accident. He and fiancée Zendaya were seen at a comedy club event for Holland’s father, who is a comedian.
Despite the setback, Holland’s excitement for the project remains high. His previous outing as Spider-Man was in 2021’s “Spider-Man: No Way Home,” which achieved considerable success and nostalgia by featuring past Spider-Man actors Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield. However, Holland had expressed his frustrations with filming under COVID restrictions. “Now, we’re really gonna lean into that old-school filmmaking and shoot in real locations,” he stated, discussing the shift in filming style. The crew is set to film in Glasgow, Scotland, to enhance the film’s authenticity.
Holland hinted at this fresh approach in an interview, saying, “It’s gonna feel like making [2017’s] Spider-Man 1 again.” He expressed his enthusiasm, labeling the opportunity as a “breath of fresh air.” Fans can look forward to the release of “Spider-Man: Brand New Day,” scheduled for July 31, 2026, although this date was set before his recent head injury.
For those following the production, Holland’s resilience amid challenges and his enthusiasm for returning to a beloved role stands out. The bond between actor and character remains strong, as does the anticipation for what lies ahead in the Spider-Man legacy.
