Tom Holland got injured while filming a stunt for Sony/Marvel’s Spider-Man: Brand New Day on Friday and is stepping away from set work for several days to recover. Sources say the actor sustained a mild concussion and was taken to a local hospital for treatment.
What happened on set
Reports say production medics called an ambulance to Warner Bros. / Leavesden Studios in Watford on Friday after someone was injured during a stunt. An East of England Ambulance Service spokesman confirmed crews were called to the scene at 10:30 a.m. and that a patient was transported to hospital for further care.
Conflicting accounts about who else was hurt
News outlets differ on whether anyone else was seriously hurt. Some tabloid reports claimed a woman — described as a stunt double — was also taken away in an ambulance and that Holland “cracked his head” in the fall. Other trade outlets, however, report that only Holland was injured and describe his condition as a mild concussion.
Production pause and family comment
Filming has been paused while the production team assesses next steps. Holland’s father, Dominic Holland, who attended a charity event over the weekend, told attendees his son would be off set “for a while,” and media reports say the break is a precaution so Tom can recover. Studio leadership is reportedly meeting to decide scheduling and safety steps going forward.
Where the film stands (release date and what to watch for)
Spider-Man: Brand New Day is slated for release next summer — currently listed on release calendars for July 31, 2026 — and producers will weigh any production delays against that date as assessments continue. Sony/production spokespeople and Leavesden Studios have been contacted in published reports; trade outlets say studio teams plan internal meetings to determine how to proceed.
