Spider-Man 4 Gets Small Delay to Move Clear of Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey

The release of the next Tom Holland Spider-Man movie has been pushed back one week, now slated for July 31, 2026, instead of the previously announced July 24th. This likely avoids a direct box office clash with Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey.

The revised release date provides a two-week gap between The Odyssey and the fourth Spider-Man film, offering both films better access to IMAX screens—a preference known to be held by Christopher Nolan. This is especially beneficial given Tom Holland's starring role in both movies.

Marvel has officially confirmed a fourth Spider-Man film starring Tom Holland, following Avengers: Doomsday (May 1, 2026). Destin Daniel Cretton (Shang-Chi) will direct, taking over from his previous commitment to the next Avengers film following storyline adjustments related to the Kang character.

The Russo Brothers have returned to direct Avengers: Doomsday, with Robert Downey Jr. surprisingly cast as Doctor Doom. For a complete list of upcoming MCU projects, check here. Prepare for the potential double-feature excitement of The Odyssey and Spider-Man 4!
