Uh-oh. First, Henry Cavill was injured on the set of the Highlander reboot , delaying production until 2026. And now, Tom Holland has been hospitalized after being injured on the set of Spider-Man: Brand New Day. We are told that bad things come in threes, so we’d suggest that any other high-profile leading men in action movies be extra careful doing their stunts today. While Tom Holland’s injury will delay Spider-Man Brand New Day‘s production it is thankfully NOT being pushed into the new year. Here’s what we know about Tom Holland’s on-set accident and hospitalization.
It’s reported that Tom Holland was injured and hospitalized while filming on Spider-Man: Brand New Day‘s Galsgow set. The actor suffered a concussion while shooting the undoubtedly very stunt-heavy sequences of Marvel Studio’s upcoming movie. Deadline reports that filming on Brand New Day “was suspended Friday as the actor was treated for a mild concussion, and that a source reports that Holland will take a break “out of precaution” but is expected to resume filming the Spider-Man movie very shortly.
We love the look of physical effects, but there’s no denying they can be dangerous. Holland has been open to doing stunts since his very first audition for Captain America: Civil War, where he did a backflip unprompted. But even when well-trained, injuries can happen to the best actors out there. Still, we have no doubt Holland will shake off this injury pretty quickly and be back to the Spider-Man action.
In recent interviews, Holland shared of filming Spider-Man: Brand New Day, “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. 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.”
In Spider-Man: Brand New Day, Holland’s Peter Parker will deal with the fallout of the whole world forgetting him. A rumored synopsis shares, “After Doomsday, Peter Parker tries to focus on college and leave Spider-Man behind. But when a new threat endangers his friends, he must break his promise and suit up again, teaming with an unexpected ally to protect those he loves.” Spider-Man: Brand New Day will take place between Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars.
While the whole world may have forgotten Peter Parker in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, we would like Tom Holland to protect his brain and mind from any further injury while filming the movie. Hopefully, Holland will recover quickly and filming can resume without further incident.
