Tom Holland has been swinging through the Marvel Cinematic Universe for a decade now, and with Spider-Man: Brand New Day hitting theaters this week, fans old and new are asking the same question: what is the correct order to watch every Tom Holland Spider-Man movie? Whether you want to relive Peter Parker’s journey from a nervous fifteen-year-old to a seasoned Avenger, or you’re catching up before “Brand New Day,” here is the full, updated Tom Holland Spider-Man movie order.
Why Tom Holland’s Spider-Man Timeline Matters Right Now
“Spider-Man: Brand New Day” opened in select international markets on July 29, 2026, with Thursday preview screenings on July 30, 2026, ahead of its wide U.S. and Australian release on July 31, 2026. It is the fourth standalone Tom Holland Spider-Man film and marks his return to the role after nearly five years, following “No Way Home” in 2021. The movie premiered in Los Angeles at the Dolby Theatre on July 27, 2026, with Tom Holland, Zendaya, Sadie Sink, Jon Bernthal, Jacob Batalon, Tramell Tillman and Michael Mando all walking the carpet.
Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton (known for “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings”), “Brand New Day” is written by Chris McKenna, Erik Sommers and Justin Kuritzkes, and reportedly carries a production budget of around 225 million dollars. Early tracking has been unusually volatile, with conservative studio estimates around 180 to 195 million dollars for the domestic opening weekend, while several independent box office analysts project a much bigger number between 230 and 300 million dollars, which would put it in range of “Spider-Man: No Way Home’s” historic 260.1 million dollar domestic debut. The film currently holds a strong 91 percent approval rating from critics on Rotten Tomatoes.
Tom Holland Spider-Man Movies In Order (Release Order)
This is the order in which the films actually came out, and it is the recommended way to watch them if you want to experience Peter Parker’s growth exactly as audiences did.
1. Captain America: Civil War (2016) Tom Holland’s Peter Parker is introduced in a supporting role. Fifteen-year-old Peter is recruited by Tony Stark to help fight Captain America’s team, giving audiences their first glimpse of Holland’s take on the wall-crawler.
2. Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017) Peter’s first solo outing sees him try to balance high school life with his desire to prove himself worthy of joining the Avengers, all while facing off against Adrian Toomes, the Vulture.
3. Avengers: Infinity War (2018) Peter joins the fight against Thanos alongside Tony Stark and the Guardians of the Galaxy, culminating in his devastating “dusting” at the film’s end.
4. Avengers: Endgame (2019) Peter returns after being snapped back into existence and helps the surviving Avengers reverse Thanos’s actions in the final battle.
5. Spider-Man: Far From Home (2019) Still grieving Tony Stark, Peter joins a European school trip that turns into a mission against elemental threats, only to discover Mysterio is a former Stark Industries employee bent on manipulation and revenge.
6. Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021) After Mysterio exposes Peter’s identity to the world, a spell gone wrong tears open the multiverse, bringing in villains and versions of Spider-Man played by Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield. The film grossed nearly 1.9 billion dollars worldwide.
7. Spider-Man: Brand New Day (2026) Set approximately four years after “No Way Home,” this film finds Peter forgotten by the world after the spell at the end of the previous movie. It is Holland’s fourth solo Spider-Man film and reunites him with Zendaya, Jacob Batalon and Michael Mando, while adding Sadie Sink, Jon Bernthal, Tramell Tillman and Marvin Jones III to the cast.
Where Tom Holland’s Spider-Man Goes Next
Holland’s Peter Parker isn’t done yet. He is confirmed to appear as Spider-Man in Avengers: Doomsday, releasing later in 2026, and is set to return again in Avengers: Secret Wars in 2027. Marvel has not yet confirmed a streaming date for “Brand New Day,” though past Marvel Studios films have typically arrived on Disney+ a few months after their theatrical run.
Release Order vs Chronological Order
Most fans and critics recommend watching the films in release order, since that is how the story and character growth were designed to unfold. However, if you prefer to watch strictly based on in-universe timeline placement, the order stays largely the same, since each film builds directly on the previous one’s events without major flashbacks or time jumps.
Do You Need To Watch Other MCU Shows First?
Not necessarily. While shows like “Daredevil: Born Again” and “The Punisher” exist in the same universe and occasionally connect to Spider-Man’s world, they are not required viewing to understand “Brand New Day.” The seven Tom Holland Spider-Man appearances listed above will bring you fully up to speed.
What About the Other Spider-Man Actors?
Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield each had their own Spider-Man film series before Holland, and all three actors now share the same multiverse thanks to “No Way Home.” Since each era takes place in a different pocket of the multiverse, they can technically be watched in any order, though many fans recommend watching Maguire’s and Garfield’s films before diving into Holland’s run for the full multiversal payoff in “No Way Home.”
Final Thoughts
With “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” now in theaters, there has never been a better time to revisit Tom Holland’s journey as the wall-crawler from a nervous teenager in Queens to one of the MCU’s most beloved heroes. Following the order above ensures you catch every callback, every villain reveal, and every emotional beat exactly as intended.
