‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day' set photos might have just revealed when this movie takes place in the MCU
Yesterday (July 28), the account Spider-Man News took to X (Twitter) to share photos from the set of the next "Spider-Man" film. These photos don't share much at first glance, but there's a key detail hiding in them that potentially reveals when this movie is set in the MCU.

If you look at the first and third photos in the post, you'll seee an anticipated completion date for the under construction "Building AJ816" as Dec. 2027 (incidentally, you'll also see that Manhattan is misspelled).
We already know that "Captain America: Brave New World" and "Thunderbolts*" take place in 2027, with the latter taking place precisely 14 months prior to the events of the upcoming "Avengers: Doomsday."
Now, it seems that "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" will also join these two movies before "Doomsday" in the MCU timeline, and likely in 2027 as well.
We still don't know exactly when it takes place in relation to "Brave New World" or "Thunderbolts*," but given we don't expect the fourth "Spider-Man" film to be tied narratively to those two films, it likely doesn't matter.
We don't know a ton yet about "Spider-Man: Brand New Day," but here's everything we've learned so far:

Tom Holland reveals new Spider-Man suit in 1st look at 'Brand New Day'
Marvel fans just got their first official look at Tom Holland's new Spider-Man suit for the upcoming movie "Spider-Man: Brand New Day," set to hit theaters on July 31, 2026. In a video released Saturday morning, Holland steps out in a redesigned costume featuring brighter red and blue colors and a larger spider symbol across the chest. The reveal came one day after Holland teased the update on Instagram for National Spider-Man Day with the caption, "Something brand new is coming…" The next morning, the full look dropped with the message, "Are you ready? – 7.31.2026." In addition to Holland's return, Mark Ruffalo will reprise his role as Bruce Banner, also known as the Hulk, The Hollywood Reporter reports. The film marks Ruffalo's first major appearance in a Spider-Man movie and comes 14 years after he joined the Marvel Cinematic Universe in "The Avengers." Plot details for "Brand New Day" are still under wraps, but the title and costume suggest a fresh chapter for Peter Parker in the MCU.

Spider-Man 4 Set Video Shows The Punisher's Vehicle of Choice
A new set video is out, and shows off what The Punisher will be driving around in the upcoming MCU movie. What happens in the Spider-Man 4 set video? The new set video comes from an action scene that is set to be filmed this week, and according to insider Daniel Richtman, will see Spider-Man and The Punisher fighting over a DODC transport convoy. The DODC, in Marvel Comics, stands for the United States Department of Damage Control, a subsidiary of S.H.I.E.L.D. that deals with enhanced battles. In the video, a large militarized truck can be seen being rolled onto the street from a tow truck. The scene itself comes from footage taken by Scottish fans, as Spider-Man: Brand New Day is currently filming in Glasgow. Spider-Man: Brand New Day is being directed by Destin Daniel Cretton from a screenplay written by Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers. The movie will once again be led by Tom Holland as he reprises his role as Peter Parker/Spider-Man. Emmy winner Zendaya and Jacob Batalo are also expected to return for the sequel. They will be joined by recently announced new cast members Sadie Sink (Stranger Things) and Liza Colón-Zayas (The Bear), with Jon Bernthal set to make his movie debut as Frank Castle/Punisher. The latter recently played the anti-hero again in Daredevil: Born Again Season 1. The movie is produced by Kevin Feige, Amy Pascal, Rachel O'Connor, and Avi Arad. Spider-Man 4 will be released in United States theaters on July 31, 2026 ahead of Avengers: Doomsday (December 18, 2026) and Avengers: Secret Wars (December 17, 2027), following Doomsday's delay.

Billie Piper Recalls 'Very Last-Minute' Invite For ‘Doctor Who' Return: 'Really Fun To Film'
As Doctor Who plots a return with the eponymous Time Lord seemingly taking on the form of a previous companion, Billie Piper is reacquainting herself with the secrets of the universe. Following the Season 15 finale of the rebooted BBC One/Disney+ series, in which the Ncuti Gatwa's 15th Doctor regenerates to take the form of Piper's Rose Tyler, the actress recently recalled how she came to return to the TARDIS. More from Deadline Ncuti Gatwa Bids 'Bittersweet' Farewell To 'Doctor Who' After Two Seasons: 'Time To Hand Over The Keys To That Beloved Blue Box' BBC Pledges To Be 'Mindful' Of Spoilers After Irate Viewers Complain About 'Doctor Who' Reveal BBC Faces Pressure To Pull Last Season Of 'MasterChef' Featuring Wallace & Torode Before August 6 Launch Date 'This is such a minefield, I have to really engage with how I answer this,' she said at Florida Supercon. 'All I can say is, I was approached very last-minute, and I can't talk about in what capacity, but I found it very emotional to film, and I think it's a really great ending.' Noting she had to keep the finale twist a secret, Piper explained, 'I just found it quite moving, and it was really fun to film because it had such a sort of cloak-and-dagger feeling about getting it made. So, yeah, I have to lie a lot about anything to do with Doctor Who, it seems.' Since her original run in the first two seasons from 2005 to 2006, Piper has reprised the role of Rose on several occasions, most recently being the 2013 episode 'The Day of the Doctor', as well as the podcast series Doctor Who: The Tenth Doctor Adventures in 2017. Following Piper's return in the May finale of Season 15 (Season 2 under Disney's leadership), Gatwa announced his exit from the show, explaining that the role was a 'real pleasure and honor,' but the departure 'felt like the right timing and the right energy, and it's felt melancholic and bittersweet.' 'It was always the plan to do this amount of seasons, because it's a role that demands a lot of you, physically and emotionally and mentally,' said Gatwa in a behind-the-scenes featurette. 'The actors playing the Doctor are only actors playing the Foctor; unfortunately, we are mere mortals. I would love to have the energy and the youth to be able to do this full time for the rest of my life, but my knees are telling me it's time.' Doctor Who has not yet been renewed for Season 3 at Disney+ and BBC.
