Tom Holland has cemented his standing as a significant film star just by advantage of turning into this era’s Spider-Man. It doesn’t matter what he does, he’ll stay immortalized within the annals of superhero film historical past. However the actor certainly has ambitions exterior of enjoying the web-slinger, and his makes an attempt to department out communicate to the extent of that ambition.

Holland is within the midst of taking a well-earned break from performing after having didn’t trigger a lot of a stir along with his non-Marvel initiatives. Apart from the anticlimactic “Uncharted” online game adaptation, he starred in one other disappointing adaptation within the type of Dough Liman’s grim tackle the “Chaos Strolling” e book trilogy from creator Patrick Ness. Holland additionally tried his greatest to avoid wasting the bloated mess of a movie that was the Russo brothers’ “Cherry,” earlier than delivering one more underwhelming venture with Apple TV+’s “The Crowded Room.” Apart from his stable flip in 2020 Netflix film “The Satan All The Time,” then, he hasn’t managed to do a lot exterior of his Spidey profession.

However the British star is at present gearing up for one more Hollywood run, with a number of initiatives within the works, a few of that are prestigious sufficient they’ll nearly definitely assist him attain the non-Marvel heights to which he is aspired for a while. This is each upcoming Tom Holland film.

Whereas he is busy proving he is greater than Spider-Man, Tom Holland will nonetheless discover time to play the wall-crawler in one more installment of the Marvel Cinematic Universe/Sony Spidey movies. The ending of 2021’s “Spider-Man: No Means Residence” set Holland’s Peter Parker up for a solo outing not like any of the earlier three installments, with everybody in his life having forgotten his alter-ego. When “No Means Residence” wrapped up, we acquired a glimpse of an all-new model of Holland’s Spidey, one a lot nearer to the traditional iteration of the character followers of the comedian books know. As such, the fourth movie has been highly-anticipated ever since “No Means Residence” arrived, nevertheless it took till 2024 for the venture to get the official go-ahead.

Whereas Jon Watts helmed all three earlier MCU Spider-Man movies, “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings” director Destin Daniel Cretton is onboard for this fourth installment, which is because of begin manufacturing in early 2025. Story particulars have been saved below wraps, however Holland has beforehand spoken extremely of the script, telling the Wealthy Roll podcast (through Selection) again in October 2024 that it “actually lit a fireplace in me” and calling the draft screenplay “glorious.”

Past that, particulars are fairly scarce, although Holland’s Spider-Man seems set to go up towards one in all Marvel’s greatest villains within the forthcoming movie, at present set for a July 2026 launch. That imply’s “Spider-Man 4” will face an surprising field workplace battle when it faces off towards Christopher Nolan’s subsequent film — an adaptation of a Greek Epic during which Holland additionally occurs to be starring…

If there’s one technique to robotically achieve some Hollywood esteem, it is starring in a Christopher Nolan movie, and that is precisely what Tom Holland can be doing in 2026. Having made one of many greatest field workplace hits of 2023 with “Oppenheimer,” Nolan is about to proceed his persistently spectacular profession with one more huge endeavor. In December 2024, Nolan’s subsequent movie was revealed as an adaptation of Homer’s “The Odyssey,” which can be shot, as per the official synopsis, “utilizing model new IMAX movie know-how.”

Primarily, then, Nolan will deliver his love for large-format film-making to one of many nice epic poems of Historical Greece, which looks like an ideal pairing. Fortunately for Holland, the actor will profit from what’s going to little doubt show to be one more main cinematic occasion that additionally comes with some critical status, because the actor is about to star alongside Matt Damon within the upcoming movie, which additionally options a powerful array of actors from Robert Pattinson, Lupita Nyong’o, and Anne Hathaway to Charlize Theron and Holland’s companion Zendaya.

On the time of writing, there are not any particulars about how Nolan plans to strategy the venture when it comes to whether or not he’ll go for a standard retelling or replace the story for a contemporary context. Likewise, it isn’t but clear simply what half Holland can be enjoying within the movie. However “The Odyssey” is about for a July 17, 2026 theatrical launch, so 2025 will certainly deliver loads of updates on that entrance.

Marvel Studios hasn’t had the perfect time of late. Following some disastrous streaming sequence and a slew of disappointing movies (to not point out a really public debacle surrounding former Kang actor Johnathan Majors and his conviction for harassment and assault), the corporate has had to return to the drafting board in an try to repair the MCU earlier than it is too late. That has resulted in only one MCU film being launched in 2024, and a complete remodeling of the upcoming “Avengers” films that had been initially set to characteristic Majors because the central antagonist.

Now, as an alternative of Kang, we’ll see Robert Downey Jr. make his return to the most important franchise in cinema historical past as Victor Von Doom in each “Avengers: Doomsday” and “Avengers: Secret Wars.” The previous is about for a Might 2026 launch, whereas the latter will arrive in Might 2027, and as of but there is not any affirmation of precisely which heroes we’ll see in both movie — although we do know Chris Evans will return to the MCU for “Doomsday.”

Which means we additionally do not know whether or not Tom Holland will seem as Spidey within the movies, although it appears extremely doubtless the actor can be concerned in some capability. Within the absence of any concrete particulars in that regard, Holland’s wall-crawler had an in depth relationship with Downey Jr.’s Tony Stark in earlier MCU entries, and it could appear to be a missed alternative to miss how the character’s return as a villain may have an effect on Peter Parker. That mentioned, The Hollywood Reporter claimed that Holland will make a “doubtless cease” for “Doomsday” between capturing “Spider-Man 4” and Christopher Nolan’s “The Odyssey,” so issues are wanting optimistic even whereas Marvel Studios is but to verify something.

Again in 2022, Tom Holland starred as Nathan Drake in “Uncharted,” which /Movie dubbed an uninspired motion journey film that belongs in a museum. When you assume that is unnecessarily harsh, the remainder of the evaluations weren’t a lot better. The online game adaptation bears a lowly 41% on Rotten Tomatoes, even whereas its viewers rating stays at 89%. None of this, nevertheless, prevented Sony Footage from proclaiming “Uncharted” to be a “new hit film franchise,” and with a worldwide field workplace take of $400 million on a $120 million finances, that is not as off the mark as you may anticipate.

Naturally, then, a sequel was doubtless on the desk and it appears “Uncharted 2” is making gradual progress over at Sony. In the course of the firm’s presentation at CineEurope in June 2024, “Uncharted 2” was touted as an upcoming venture, although Sony declined to offer any particulars in regards to the movie. Producer Charles Roven, who can be engaged on Holland’s “American Velocity,” informed Deadline in December 2024, “We’re engaged on a script, however we’ll have to attend now for Chris Nolan’s film that Tom and Zendaya are doing. After which proper after that, he and Zendaya are doing ‘Spider-Man.'”

All of which implies that whereas “Uncharted 2” is an actual chance at this level, it can doubtless be a while earlier than Holland is free to work on the venture. The crucial response to the primary film definitely left a lot to be desired. Nonetheless, not solely was the movie a monetary success, but in addition online game films basically are shortly turning into Hollywood’s new focus because the age of so-called “superhero fatigue” units in. So, whereas it may not appear to be the perfect transfer for Holland to return to a franchise that the Wall Road Journal known as “cold, heartless, joyless, sexless and, with one exception, charmless,” there are many the explanation why he may think about it. For now, although, particulars relating to the story or launch dates are unlikely to emerge for a while.

“American Velocity” may sound just like the form of John Travolta failure that everyone knows and love, nevertheless it’s really a drama primarily based on the real-life story of race care drivers the Whittington brothers. Holland is hooked up to star alongside Austin Butler, each of whom will presumably play the 2 brothers who had been a part of the Eighties Worldwide Motor Sports activities Affiliation (IMSA) scandal. This debacle noticed a number of IMSA drivers charged with drug smuggling and cash laundering, together with Invoice and Don Whittingham — who will doubtless be the 2 brothers that Butler and Holland play, although nothing has been confirmed as of but.

Written by Daniele Sebastian Wiedenhaupt, whose solely different main credit score is the 2018 prehistoric journey “Alpha,” “American Velocity” was picked up by Amazon MGM Studios again in November 2024 (as per Deadline). Producer Charles Roven, who’s greatest recognized for working with Christopher Nolan on a number of of his movies (together with “The Darkish Knight” and “Oppenheimer,” now the very best grossing biopic of all time), is hooked up to provide.

On the time of writing, “American Velocity” stays in pre-production. Amazon MGM have but to announce a director or launch date, however extra information will certainly be arriving quickly.

Previous to turning into the star we all know him as at the moment, Tom Holland skilled as a dancer, together with two years spent studying ballet and faucet alongside acrobatic classes (as per The Guardian). He put these abilities to good use when appeared in a West Finish manufacturing of “Billy Elliot” from 2008 to 2010, touchdown the title function throughout his tenure. His acrobatic abilities additionally got here in useful when auditioning for the function of Peter Parker/Spider-Man, with Holland shocking Chris Evans along with his acrobatic skills through the assembly.

So, when information emerged in 2021 that Holland had been forged in a biopic of legendary actor and dancer Fred Astaire, it made a variety of sense. The film, from Sony Footage, is alleged to concentrate on the connection between Astaire and his sister, Adele, who collectively turned huge vaudeville stars, working collectively for greater than 20 years earlier than breaking apart their efficiency partnership in 1932. After this, Astaire turned an enormous Hollywood star, thanks partially to his preeminent dance abilities — making this an element to which Holland is seemingly well-suited.

Extra in-depth particulars are but to be revealed, however in 2023 it was introduced that “Paddington” and “Wonka” director Paul King would helm the Fred Astaire film. King revealed in February 2024 {that a} new script was being developed however in any other case, progress on the movie has been gradual for a while. Nonetheless, with a director confirmed and an encouraging replace coming as not too long ago as 2024, it appears the Fred Astaire biopic has an actual chance of truly making it to the end line. For now, nevertheless, we await extra particulars.

Maybe probably the most tenuous of all of the movies on this listing, “Beneath a Scarlet Sky” is an adaptation of Mark Sullivan’s 2017 novel of the identical identify, to which Tom Holland has been hooked up since that very same yr. As Deadline reported on the time, the producer of Holland’s Spidey movies, Amy Pascal, and the star had been set to work collectively on the difference after Pascal Footage acquired the rights to the e book. Since then, nevertheless, there’s been little or no motion on the venture.

The novel itself is predicated on the real-life story of Italian teenager Pino Lella, who joins an underground railroad that helps Jewish individuals escape the horrors of Adolf Hitler’s atrocities throughout World Conflict II. After being pressured to hitch the German Military, Lella turns into a driver for Common Hans Leyers, an in depth confidant of Hitler, earlier than the teenager is recruited to grow to be an Allied spy. By way of his covert actions, Lella helps the Allies achieve a strategic benefit within the warfare. In the meantime, Pella falls for a younger lady named Anna.

Seems like it could make a good little drama, would not it? Sadly, the venture stays in limbo. That mentioned, in June 2024 Sullivan made a Fb publish during which he acknowledged that “Beneath a Scarlet Sky” was at present “being developed by Crucial Leisure,” the identical firm behind one in all Martin Scorsese’s greatest footage, “Killers of the Flower Moon.” Sullivan added, “The parents at Crucial are obsessed with Pino Lella’s story — one in all them grew up on the Swiss border with Italy very near the place the story unfolds — and are doing an awesome job to date with the screenplay.” Since then, there hasn’t been a lot in the way in which of updates, nevertheless it appears the venture could be very a lot nonetheless gestating regardless of seemingly languishing since 2017.

It is value noting that Sullivan declined to say something about Holland or whether or not Pascal Footage remains to be concerned, so at this level, there is not any affirmation of the actor’s ongoing involvement in any respect.
