Tom Holland, the 29-year-old star of Marvel’s Spider-Man franchise, was hospitalized after a serious stunt accident on the set of Spider-Man: Brand New Day in Watford, England, on September 19, 2025. Filming came to a halt as emergency services rushed Holland and an injured stunt double to the hospital, leaving the cast and crew shocked.
The actor reportedly suffered a concussion after hitting his head during a failed stunt. His recent early exit from a charity event now raises concerns about his health prior to the accident. Marvel and Sony have yet to release statements, though there’s speculation that UK safety regulators may investigate the incident.
Production, with a budget exceeding £150 million, had already moved from Liverpool to Glasgow earlier this year due to sensitivities surrounding a tragic local event. Glasgow streets were transformed to resemble New York for the movie’s large-scale action scenes.
Holland’s father confirmed that Tom will take a short break from filming, but sources say he’s expected to return soon. Zendaya will reprise her role as MJ, Jacob Batalon returns as Ned Leeds, and newcomer Sadie Sink is rumored to join as Jean Grey. For now, the set remains on pause as fans hope for Holland’s quick recovery.
