This summer, Peter Parker returns to the big screen in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Over the past 24 hours, Spidey fans around the world revealed small snippets of the upcoming film’s trailer.
The baton-passing culminated on Wednesday morning with Tom Holland unveiling the full trailer from atop the Empire State Building, ringing in a brand new day for New York City.
Watch the full official trailer for Spider-Man’s next theatrical adventure below!
After the most bizarre trailer launch strategy of all time (what was with those 2-second drops?) Sony has unveiled the first full teaser for Tom Holland’s much-anticipated return as Peter Parker.
And it’s the start of a new era for the MCU’s Spidey, for many reasons. Director Jon Watts is out, with Shang-Chi’s Destin Daniel Cretton in the hot seat instead; Peter Parker is forging ahead with his friendly neighbourhood duties while MJ and Ned (neither of whom remember who he is) enrol in MIT; and there are some strange developments with Parker’s powers.
There’s tons of exciting stuff here, and the trailer leads on the emotional hook – Peter having to watch his girlfriend and best friend go off to college together, having forgotten entirely of his existence.
Plus, it seems Zendaya’s MJ has a new romantic entanglement in the form of Ahsoka’s Eman Esfandi. But for all the heartbreak, there’s plenty of Spider-Manning too.
We see Spidey teaming up with The Punisher, while using his webs to tame his decidedly not PG-13 impulses; tangling with the Scorpion; and battling… ninjas? Since this is New York, and we have Punisher in the mix, could this be the resurgence of Daredevil foes The Hand?
Most intriguingly though, the Brand New Day trailer establishes that Peter’s powers are undergoing some kind of metamorphosis this time around.
He’s waking up tangled in webs, seems to be developing organic web-shooters in his wrists, and goes to meet Mark Ruffalo’s Bruce Banner for advice on mutating DNA.
Mysterious too, is that there’s only a brief shot of who we assume is Sadie Sink’s character, in a hoodie, apparently controlling minds; could she be a mutant? Could she be… that mutant?
