Tom Holland Hospitalized After Spider-Man Stunt Accident
Fans of Tom Holland were given quite a scare recently after the actor was rushed to hospital following an on-set accident while filming the upcoming Marvel film Spider-Man: Brand New Day . The incident happened at Leavesden Studios in Watford, England, during the filming of a stunt sequence on Friday. Reports confirmed that Holland, who is 29, suffered a head injury when a fall went wrong, and he has since been treated for a concussion.
According to sources, the actor’s injury was described as mild, but production on the film is now expected to pause while he takes time to recover. It was also reported that a woman—believed to be a stunt double—was taken to hospital in an ambulance following the same sequence, though details about her condition have not been confirmed.
Tom Holland has long been admired for performing the majority of his own stunts. With his background in acrobatics and dance, he’s built a reputation for wanting to bring authenticity to his portrayal of Peter Parker. This latest accident, however, is serving as a reminder of just how dangerous those action-packed sequences can be, even for highly trained actors. A source explained that the decision for Holland to rest for a few days was being taken purely as a precaution, but fans have already flooded social media with well wishes and messages of concern.

The production of Spider-Man: Brand New Day has already drawn a lot of attention. Filming began earlier this year in Glasgow, where the city was transformed into New York with yellow cabs, street signs, and skyscraper backdrops. Holland himself has been keeping fans engaged by posting sneak peeks of the new Spider-Man suit on Instagram. But after the accident, many of those same fans have been asking the actor directly if he’s doing okay.
The film is set to be a major milestone for both Sony and Marvel Studios. Scheduled for release in July 2026, it will be the fourth installment in the Spider-Man series starring Holland, following the massive success of Spider-Man: No Way Home , which became Sony’s highest-grossing film ever. This new chapter, directed by Destin Daniel Cretton of Shang-Chi fame, is also seen as a pivotal release leading into Marvel’s next Avengers film. Alongside Holland, the movie will feature returning cast members like Zendaya as MJ and Jacob Batalon, as well as newcomers including Sadie Sink and Tramell Tillman.
Off-screen, Holland’s personal life has also been making headlines. Earlier this year, it was revealed that he and his longtime partner Zendaya had gotten engaged, after she was spotted wearing a striking diamond ring at the Golden Globes. The couple, who first confirmed their relationship in 2021, tends to keep things private, but Holland has openly called Zendaya his “saving grace” and the best thing that has ever happened to him.
For now, the focus remains on his recovery. While no serious long-term effects are expected, it’s clear that fans and the film industry alike will be keeping a close eye on his progress. The accident has underscored both the risks of stunt work and the dedication Holland continues to bring to his role as everyone’s friendly neighborhood Spider-Man.
