In Spider-Man: Brand New Day, Peter Parker is fighting crime full-time as Spider-Man in a world that doesn’t remember him. That and the pressure of seeing his old friends move on without him spark a change in Peter he may not have the power to control.
Tom Holland, who plays the dual role of Peter Parker/Spider-Man, calls the film “a fresh start, where Peter Parker is experiencing something profound and unique in the super hero genre. It’s a movie about when young people find their identity and become adults. Peter is embarking upon a new chapter.”
Director Destin Daniel Cretton says that Peter goes through many changes in the film. “A huge part of the story is watching Peter undergo an emotional and physical transformation,” says the filmmaker. “The two are linked.”
