Tom Holland on ‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’“I think you meet Peter Parker at the beginning of the darkest part of his life,” Holland said of how Spider-Man is enjoying himself as the hero of New York City, but Peter Parker is quietly falling. “You know, for me, what I really like about this movie is that it really stands for, or is a cautionary tale about the dangers of living alone, not having a community, not having friends.“For Holland, Brand New Day builds directly on the lesson Peter received from Andrew Garfield’s Spider-Man in No Way Home—that asking for help is sometimes the bravest thing a person can do. Unfortunately, he says, “He’s quickly ignoring that advice, and it’s affecting his life as a person. But, on the other hand, like Spider-Man, he’s growing.”Tom Holland for bringing a more “true” version of Spider-Man“You know, maybe we’re seeing what Spider-Man means in New York City at the beginning of this movie,” he explained, adding, “When I’m standing around the world shining and doing these amazing things, I’m going back home to New York in a beautiful house and, you know, I’m sick of going to bed, especially what we’re seeing (MJ) and watching them.”“Relating the film to everyday events, he said, “It’s very true to what young people are going through every day. So for me, I really liked this new idea because it just felt so connected, so common with what’s going on in the world.Jacob Batalon on Ned’s relationship with Peter ParkerThe press conference also saw his teammates Zendaya and Jacob Batalon discuss how the film rebuilds the relationships between the three famous – Peter, MJ and Ned – following the events of ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’, where the spell of Doctor Strange removed Peter Parker from everyone’s mind.Reflecting on Ned’s position at the beginning of the film, Batalon joked, “Yeah, I think unfortunately for Peter, you know, Ned and MJ have a really good life.”However, he also said that “they feel like something is missing. And I think, I think that for Ned, really like the Spidey Tracker thing is like his way of finding like the missing connection between them and Spider-Man. Like, why is he always trying to save their lives, for example?”“But I think MJ is like a different breed, like a different…” He added that it made Zendaya say “yeah I don’t know I thought it was fun, we kind of say it’s like a fun show, like okay do the scene, but here if you’ve never met, you know? But it was fun to explore and imagine what their life was like without Peter. The fact that we are friends and still live together in New York must mean something to them, you know. “Zendaya on the close relationship between MJ and PeterThe actor also teased the change in MJ’s personality, revealing that, “And I think that, in the previous movies, MJ was always pessimistic and it was Peter who was always optimistic. And so it’s interesting to see that change. You know, now that he’s alone, he’s kind of adopted this disharmony, and he even received positivity without knowing it.”

Although she wiped the memories, Zendaya also said that the relationship between the characters is not completely over. “So there’s still something there. We always give them hope and hope, because Peter is one of those people that you just love and you want him to make the right decisions.”‘Brand New Day’ linked to ‘No Way Home’He concluded by saying that ‘A New Day’ will have a direct link to ‘No Way Home’ and the warnings that Peter received. “He was warned by some of the Spider-men, what could happen. And I think that in many ways this movie is fighting those feelings and really contradicting the things that warned him, you know. So I’m rooting for him, but…” he said with a laugh before adding a final insult about Peter’s future, “Not looking good.“
