Christopher Nolan’s Next Movie Affects Tom Holland’s Spider-Man 4

Christopher Nolan's Next Movie Affects Tom Holland's Spider-Man 4

As a long-time gamer and avid moviegoer, I can hardly contain my excitement about the upcoming slate of films that have just been announced! Tom Holland joining Christopher Nolan’s next project is truly a game-changer, especially considering its impact on not one, but two highly-anticipated Marvel Cinematic Universe films: Spider-Man 4 and Avengers: Doomsday.


Actor Tom Holland, who portrays Spider-Man, has joined the cast for director Christopher Nolan’s upcoming film following Oppenheimer. This means that Holland’s inclusion in Nolan’s next project is set to influence two eagerly awaited Marvel Cinematic Universe films: Spider-Man 4 and Avengers: Doomsday.

After a gap of almost three years since the release of “No Way Home”, Spider-Man 4 is set to be the next installment in the series. This will be the longest interval between Tom Holland’s standalone Marvel Cinematic Universe films, as the previous ones were released every two years. The delay in releasing Spider-Man 4 has been partially due to script issues, with Marvel Studios and Sony reportedly having disagreements about the storyline direction. Fortunately, Holland has given his approval for the latest draft of the script, although he admits that it still requires some refinement. A similar situation occurred with Avengers: Doomsday, as it underwent changes when Marvel Studios abandoned plans for Avengers: The Kang Dynasty following Jonathan Majors’ dismissal from the role of the main antagonist due to legal issues.

As a gamer, I’m juggling my schedule like never before! With my upcoming role in Nolan’s movie and Spider-Man 4 and Avengers: Doomsday all set to start filming in 2025, it’s going to be quite the challenge. The fact that I might have a significant part in Avengers: Doomsday due to Robert Downey Jr.’s casting as Doctor Doom is definitely exciting news!

Christopher Nolan's Next Movie Affects Tom Holland's Spider-Man 4

As a devoted fan, I’m eagerly anticipating Christopher Nolan’s upcoming movie, though the specifics remain shrouded in mystery. According to i09, whispers suggest it could be a 1920s-set vampire flick, which aligns with The Hollywood Reporter’s report that it’s not set in contemporary times. Beyond this, all we fans have to go on is the knowledge that Matt Damon is attached, and Nolan himself penned the script. Unlike his previous film, Oppenheimer, which was acquired by Universal after a public bidding war, it seems Nolan’s next project went directly to the studio. With Oppenheimer being a box office success and garnering several Academy Awards, including Best Supporting Actor for Downey Jr., Best Actor for Cillian Murphy, Best Director for Nolan, and Best Picture, it’s no wonder Universal would be keen to collaborate with him again.

In “Avengers: Doomsday,” it’s anticipated that Tom Holland’s Spider-Man will play a significant part due to his close relationship with Robert Downey Jr.’s Iron Man. The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) version of Spider-Man made his debut when Tony Stark/Iron Man enlisted the young hero for a mission against Captain America and his allies in “Captain America: Civil War.” Over time, Tony Stark became a mentor to Tom Holland’s Peter Parker until he selflessly used the Infinity Stones to vanquish Thanos and his troops in “Avengers: Endgame.” Following Tony Stark’s demise, Tom Holland’s Peter Parker was deeply affected, and this grief was a key aspect in the subsequent MCU film, “Spider-Man: Far From Home.

In other words, although Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom might only resemble Tony Stark in appearance instead of embodying his evil counterpart, it’s probable that Spider-Man, portrayed by Holland, would recognize the similarity with his former mentor in the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday. This likeness could serve as a poignant moment for the writers and directors to explore, given that the bond between Tony Stark and Peter Parker generated several touching moments that struck a chord with viewers.

The film titled “Avengers: Doomsday” is set to hit theaters on May 1, 2026, while Nolan’s upcoming movie is planned for a release on July 17, 2026.
