New Delhi: Tom Holland’s Spider-Man has cemented itself as one of the most beloved superhero franchises in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). With the massive success of the first three films, fans have been eagerly awaiting news about Spider-Man 4.

Now, we finally have an update! Sony Pictures has officially pushed back the release date of the highly anticipated fourth installment. Originally scheduled for July 24, 2026, the film will now hit theatres a week later, on July 31, 2026.

When Will Spider-Man 4 Release in Theaters?

Sony confirmed on February 22 that Spider-Man 4 will now arrive in cinemas on July 31, 2026. This delay aligns with Tom Holland’s commitments to another major project—Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey, which releases just two weeks earlier, on July 17, 2026.

Tom Holland’s Statement on Spider-Man 4:
Appearing on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Holland gave fans some exciting news:

"Next summer, we start shooting. Everything’s good to go – we’re nearly there, super exciting. I can’t wait!"

This confirms that filming for Spider-Man 4 will begin in mid-2025, ensuring plenty of time for production before its big-screen debut.

Will Zendaya Return as MJ?

One of the biggest unanswered questions is whether Zendaya will return as MJ in the fourth film. While there’s no official word on the cast yet, speculation remains high.

Another interesting detail? Avengers: Doomsday, scheduled for May 1, 2026, is rumored to feature Tom Holland’s Spider-Man in a short role—possibly setting up the events for Spider-Man 4.

With no confirmed villain yet, some reports suggest an A-list antagonist will take center stage this time. Could we finally see the MCU’s version of Green Goblin, Kingpin, or even Venom?
