What did Tom Holland say about the Spider-Man handoff?

Holland is back in the suit for Spider-Man: Brand New Day, but he is already thinking beyond his own run. On Happy Sad Confused, he said teams have been mapping a succession path for years.

"There's a whole plan that we have been working on for, I would say, since we finished Spider-Man: No Way Home," Holland said, according to Deadline and Variety. "It's laid out. It's gonna change for sure, but I have a really clear vision to the passing on of the baton, and I think it's really exciting."

Variety notes that timeline puts the planning at roughly five years. Holland added that those meetings excite him most about the character's future.

Who could be the next Spider-Man after Holland?

No successor has been cast. Holland has kept the door open to several directions and said he wants to help launch whoever comes next.

"For whoever's next, whether that is a Miles Morales or a Spider-Gwen or a Spider-Woman or something like that, I would love to be a part of setting up the next chapter," he told Empire earlier this year, as cited by Deadline. "If I could do what Downey did for me, then I would be so content swinging off into the sunset."

He also told the AP he has a "desire to bring Miles Morales to the screen" and to "shepherd the lucky young kid who gets that job," Variety reported. Separately, he told Esquire UK that Adolescence actor Owen Cooper "would be awesome."

Is Spider-Man: Brand New Day Holland's last outing?

Not if he has a say. At the Los Angeles premiere, The Hollywood Reporter asked about his future in the role. Holland smiled and said, "I will do it for as long as they'll have me. So if this movie does good, I guess we'll see!"

Brand New Day is his fourth solo Spider-Man film and arrives as he continues to celebrate a decade with Marvel and Sony. The handoff plan and his willingness to stay both can be true: Holland wants the franchise's next chapter mapped out, without stepping away while studios still want him swinging.
