- Sony Pictures released a new trailer for 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day,' premiering in theaters July 31 and directed by Destin Daniel Cretton
- Tom Holland's Peter Parker faces a 'surprising physical evolution that threatens his existence' while crime-fighting solo in a New York that no longer remembers him, four years after 'No Way Home'
- The new trailer shows Spider-Man fighting the Hulk, with the official logline citing 'one of the most powerful threats he has ever faced' alongside a new pattern of crimes
- CinemaCon footage revealed Zendaya's MJ has a new love interest, with Parker realizing she's moved on since he erased himself from her memory
- New cast additions include Sadie Sink, Tramell Tillman, Liza Colon-Zayas, and Marvin Jones II, joining returning Zendaya, Jacob Batalon, Mark Ruffalo, Jon Bernthal, and Michael Mando
- The previous trailer (released March 17) became the first movie trailer ever to cross 1 billion views, hitting the milestone in just four days and 718 million views in its first 24 hours
- Sony chairman Tom Rothman called the film 'as big as anything we've ever made' and said it features 'Tom Holland … in his finest performance'
Why it matters: The previous trailer's record-setting 1-billion-view count in four days — the first movie trailer ever to hit that mark — demonstrates exceptional pre-release audience demand for this Sony/Marvel co-production, while the new footage's Hulk fight and physical-transformation hook signal a higher-stakes direction for the franchise ahead of its July 31 bow.
