Tom Holland teased Spider-Man: Brand New Day at the Los Angeles premiere of the Sony Pictures film based on the Marvel superhero.
The actor explained why this fourth installment is different from the other three chapters of his Spider-Man.
“It’s more mature, and it’s a darker theme,” he told Deadline on the red carpet. “And it’s a theme that I think is incredibly relatable to young people.”
He continued, “This idea of moving to a new city and feeling like you’re all alone, and sometimes neglecting the fact that the best thing that ever happened to you is standing right next to you. I think for me, being able to tell a story that’s relatable on a stage as big as this is such an important responsibility for Destin [Daniel Cretton] to carry that theme throughout the movie. I was just really excited at the opportunity.”

Spider-Man: Brand New Day is directed by Destin Daniel Cretton and written by Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers. The film also stars Sadie Sink, Jacob Batalon, Jon Bernthal, Tramell Tillman, Michael Mando, and Mark Ruffalo.
“It’s a brand new day for Peter Parker,” reads the logline for the fourth installment of the superhero movie. “Fighting crime full-time as Spider-Man in a world that doesn’t remember him—and the pressure of seeing his old friends move on without him—sparks a change in Peter he may not have the power to control. But that transformation might also be the only thing that can stop a shocking new threat to the city and those he loves – a powerful villain no one can even see. The world may have forgotten Peter Parker, but he hasn’t forgotten them.”
Spider-Man: Brand New Day opens in theaters on July 31.
