Marvel and Sony dropped a new trailer for Spider-Man: Brand New Day on June 17, showing Tom Holland‘s Peter Parker facing off against Mark Ruffalo’s Hulk in a film that opens in US theaters on July 31, 2026.
The trailer confirms the core premise: four years after the events of No Way Home, Peter Parker is living in a New York that has forgotten he exists. MJ, played by Zendaya, is with someone else. His former best friend Ned has moved on. Parker is crime-fighting in anonymity — and now also dealing with unstable powers and a new set of villains. Jon Bernthal’s Punisher appears alongside Hulk as the unlikely allies he picks up along the way.
Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, Brand New Day is the fourth MCU entry for Holland’s Spider-Man and the first to fully lean into the consequences of the memory-erasing spell from No Way Home. The previous trailer, released on March 17, became the first in history to cross 1 billion views — reaching that mark in four days, with 718 million views in the first 24 hours alone.
The new trailer focuses on the emotional weight of Parker’s isolation rather than the action setpieces, though the Hulk confrontation sequence is clearly designed as the centerpiece reveal. Ruffalo’s Hulk has not appeared in a standalone MCU project since 2012’s The Avengers, making his presence here a significant pull for longtime fans.
Brand New Day arrives in a crowded summer entertainment window. Avatar: The Last Airbender Season 2 premieres on Netflix on June 25. Jennifer Lopez’s office comedy is currently leading Netflix’s most-watched chart. The Spider-Man franchise has consistently been one of the highest-grossing properties in film history — the three Holland films collectively earned over $4 billion worldwide. Brand New Day opens in theaters July 31 and its official Marvel page has full cast and ticketing details. Kingdom Hearts 4’s gameplay trailer dropped at Nintendo Direct this month as the other major entertainment announcement of the week.
The July 31 opening puts Brand New Day against a relatively clear calendar. Whether the film can match or exceed the first trailer’s cultural footprint will be one of the defining summer box office stories of 2026.
