  Info in Movie News | Tom Holland is back as Peter Parker in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, the fourth installment in his Marvel Cinematic Universe saga, and this time, the tone is darker, the stakes are higher, and Peter is more alone than ever before. To celebrate Spider-Man Day, Sony surprised fans with a teaser that shows Holland’s new suit in action. It’s sleeker, more tactical, and noticeably darker, a reflection of Peter’s new reality as a street-level hero operating without Avengers support. According to Collider,  production is ongoing in Glasgow, a city that is being used as the location for the shooting of a movie set in New York City.

  Info in Movie News | The silence is far from over, A Quiet Place Part III is officially heading to theaters on July 9, 2027, marking the next chapter in one of the most quietly terrifying franchises of modern horror. In the sequel,  John Krasinski comes back as the writer, director, and producer for the new eerie thriller that was initially released in 2018 and now continues the series.
