Tom Holland recently updated fans about his recovery after sustaining an injury on the set of Spider-Man: Brand New Day. On Saturday, Sept. 27, he took to social media to announce that he is “feeling better and on the mend.” Holland experienced a mild concussion during the production of the film, which led to a temporary halt in filming and a short hospital stay for the actor to allow him adequate time to recuperate.
A few days after the incident, Holland was active on Instagram, sharing moments from a gathering held by The Brother’s Trust, a charity founded by his parents. The post included a video clip featuring Holland alongside his fiancée and Spider-Man co-star Zendaya, and Jacob Batalon, another co-star, enjoying the event while Holland provided a brief update on his health.
The injury occurred due to a stunt mishap on the set in Glasgow, Scotland, according to reports. Fortunately, no other crew or cast members were hurt. It remains uncertain when filming for Spider-Man: Brand New Day will resume, but the film is still on track to hit theaters on July 31, 2026.
The film, directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, not only features Holland, Zendaya, and Batalon, but also stars Mark Ruffalo, Jon Bernthal, Michael Mando, Sadie Sink, Tramell Tillman, Liza Colón-Zayas, and newcomer Marvin Jones III.
