Tom Holland Suffers Injury on Set of ‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’

A little moment off-screen transformed Hollywood’s most acrobatic superhero into a hospital patient overnight for the celebrity, who had spent over ten years flying between buildings.

A startling stunt accident during the making of “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” in Watford, England, sent 29-year-old Tom Holland, the face of Marvel’s billion-dollar “Spider-Man” franchise, to the hospital. The event caused the movie, which was being filmed at the expansive Leavesden Studios, to come to a screeching halt on Friday morning, September 19, 2025.

As emergency personnel flooded the scene, the cast and crew were left in shock as a female stunt double was also hurt and transported by ambulance.

Production is suspended, causing panic on the set. Forever
According to insiders, filming, which had been moving quickly with an eye toward a July 2026 release, has suddenly been halted and may stay that way for weeks. An East of England Ambulance Service representative attested to this:

At Leavesden Studios in Watford, we received a call at 10.30 am on Friday to treat a patient who had been hurt. The patient was taken to the hospital for additional care after an ambulance arrived on the scene.

Health Issues Arise Both on and Off Set
Tom was treated for a concussion after it is thought that he banged his head after a tumble. It is believed that a stunt gone awry caused the fall, though specifics are still lacking.

Tom made an appearance at a Mayfair charity dinner with his father, comedian Dominic Holland, and his 28-year-old fiancée and co-star Zendaya. In retrospect, it is chilling to learn that he supposedly left early after feeling ill.

Fallout and Mystery: Will a Safety Investigation Take Place?
Despite mounting rumors that the UK Health and Safety Executive would open an investigation into what went wrong, Marvel and Sony are remaining silent despite a production spend above £150 million. Neither studio has released a remark.

Producers had already changed the plans for “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” earlier this year, moving the production from Liverpool to Glasgow after a terrible incident during Liverpool FC’s victory parade in May that injured over 100 people.

According to sources, the decision was made with community sensitivity in mind, as there were worries about pulling off large-scale antics in the city so soon after the tragedy. The Sun was informed by one source:

Scotland’s Glasgow will host the filming of the upcoming Spider-Man. Locals can witness Tom and his co-stars filming on location now that production has begun. Glasgow residents who enjoy movies are quite excited since they will be able to witness their city in the upcoming film [sic].

“To make the town resemble New York, American flags have been placed throughout it. Some of the streets and buildings have an eerie resemblance to the Big Apple, the person continued.

What Will Happen to the Web-Slinger Next?

Dominic, the father of the British celebrity, had previously stated that his son would be taking a break from filmmaking “for a while.” But according to a production source who spoke to Deadline, the “Spider-Man” actor is taking a precautionary break and should be back on work in a few days.

Fans may now anticipate seeing him suit up again shortly. Jacob Batalon will return as Ned Leeds, Zendaya will reprise her role as MJ, and “Stranger Things” breakout star Sadie Sink will join the group. In a film that would shock the Marvel Cinematic Universe, she is said to be portraying Jean Grey, an X-Men character.

However, the set is still quiet for the time being. Fans worldwide are showing their devotion for Hollywood’s favorite superhero as he heals from the fall that shook a billion-dollar franchise, with cameras down and costumes hung.
