Tom Holland is getting ready to don his Spidey suit again. The fourth installment of the blockbuster series has been set for a July 2026 release, Sony Pictures said Friday.

Daniel Destin Cretton, best known for helming Marvel’s “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings,” has also signed on to direct the still-untitled film. Cretton had previously been tapped to direct “Avengers: Kang Dynasty” but exited the project, since reimagined as “Avengers: Doomsday,” late last year.

Jon Watts directed the previous three Holland-led Spider-Man films. Together, “Spider-Man: Homecoming,” “Spider-Man: Far From Home” and “Spider-Man: No Way Home” have made over $3.9 billion globally.

Holland told “Good Morning America” recently that the idea for the fourth film “is crazy.”

“It’s a little different to anything we’ve done before, but I think the fans are going to really respond to it,” Holland said.

The studio claimed July 24, 2026, for its theatrical release. Earlier this week, Holland said during an appearance on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,” that they plan to shoot next summer.
