Tom Holland is taking a short break from filming Spider-Man: Brand New Day after being hospitalized for a mild concussion acquired on the Glasgow set.

The injury is being described as a mild concussion, but Holland will be taking a break from filming for the next several days. Sony is meeting today while they figure out how to shoot around Holland’s absence. No one else is said to have been injured. The injury happened during a stunt gone wrong, but The Sun reported that he has since attended a charity event this weekend with his co-star and fiancée Zendaya.

Before filming began in Scotland last month, Holland had said he’s “over the moon and so excited” to film on location after filming Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021) shot entirely on soundstages amid the COVID pandemic.

“Now, we’re really gonna lean into that old-school filmmaking and shoot in real locations, which is why we’re starting in Glasgow and we’re gonna use the streets of Glasgow to build this massive set-piece that we’re putting together,” Holland detailed. “So it’s gonna feel like making [2017’s] Spider-Man 1 again. It’s been such a long time since I’ve done it, it’s gonna feel like a breath of fresh air, and I think the fans are going to be over the moon with what we’re putting together.”

Spider-Man: Brand New Day is perhaps the most important movie on Sony’s upcoming slate. The previous film, 2021’s Spider-Man: No Way Home, stands as the studio’s highest grossing movie of all time with $1.91 billion in ticket sales. The previous movie, Far From Home, became the first Spidey movie to top $1 billion, and was just Sony’s second, after James Bond pic Skyfall.

The film is also important to Marvel Studios’ lineup, as it is the studio’s only feature before the December 2026 arrival of Avengers: Doomsday.

Brand New Day is scheduled for release on July 31, 2026.
