British actor Tom Holland has officially confirmed his return as Spider-Man in the highly anticipated fourth installment of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) franchise. Appearing on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, the 28-year-old actor shared the exciting news with fans, revealing that filming is set to begin next summer, with production plans already well underway.
Tom Holland as Spider-man again:
“I can’t wait to get started,” Holland told Fallon during his appearance. “Everything is ready to go. We’re nearly there.”
While fans were thrilled with Holland’s announcement, the actor remained tight-lipped about whether his girlfriend Zendaya, 28, who portrays MJ, will be reprising her role alongside him. The couple met on the set of Spider-Man: Homecoming in 2016, and their on-screen chemistry has captivated audiences through three MCU films, adding to the suspense over her possible involvement in the upcoming project.
During the interview, Holland also shared a humorous story from his early days as Spider-Man, long before the public knew he had landed the role. The actor recounted a Halloween memory when he unintentionally frightened a young trick-or-treater dressed as Spider-Man by overly embracing his secret identity. Holland laughingly said he was more excited than a seven-year-old kid.“I told him I was the real Spider-Man, but his parents ended up dragging him away from my house.”
Beyond his Spider-Man duties, Holland has been busy promoting his new alcohol-free beer, BERO. The actor was spotted in Tribeca earlier this week loading crates of his new beverage into a large promotional van. Later, Holland waved to fans in Midtown, graciously greeting onlookers as he made his way through the bustling New York City streets.
Holland’s stylish public appearances have also turned heads, with the actor donning a crisp white Ami shirt, beige jeans, and Axel Arigato Clay trainers for his Tonight Show appearance. A day later, Holland was seen outside Good Morning America studios, exuding effortless charm in a long-sleeved dark green polo shirt paired with wide-leg brown trousers and white sneakers.
As excitement builds for the next Spider-Man film, which marks Holland’s fourth portrayal of the iconic web-slinger, fans eagerly await more details—including whether Zendaya’s MJ will be swinging back into action alongside Holland’s Peter Parker.
