Spider-Man: Brand New Day will be better than Spider-Man: No Way Home because it will “shoot in real locations” instead of on production sets, Tom Holland has said.

The 29-year-old actor is due to suit up as the Wall-Crawler once again for the upcoming Marvel superhero blockbuster, and has now stressed Spider-Man: Brand New Day will improve on its 2021 predecessor by dropping the sound stages in favour of filming on location - with principal photography set to start in Glasgow next month.

Speaking with Flip Your Wig, Holland said: “I’m obviously over the moon and so excited. Playing Spider-Man is like hanging out with an old pal, and I think we were really restricted with what we could do in the last movie because of COVID. We shot the entire film on stages.

“Now, we’re really gonna lean into that old-school filmmaking and shoot in real locations, which is why we’re starting in Glasgow.”

The Odyssey star added the streets of the Scottish city would be used for a “massive set piece” in Spider-Man: Brand New Day.

Reflecting on Spider-Man: Brand New Day, Holland teased the film would feel like a “breath of fresh air”, like his original 2017 movie Spider-Man: Homecoming.

He said: “It’s gonna feel like making [Spider-Man: Homecoming] again. It’s been such a long time that I’ve done it that it’s gonna feel like a breath of fresh air.

“And I think the fans are gonna be over the moon with what we’re putting together.”
