Tom Holland's Spider-Man Stunt Goes Awry: Filming Paused for Hero’s Recovery
SPIDER-MAN SHOCKER: Tom Holland Rushed to Hospital After Horrific Stunt Goes Wrong on Set!
The web-slinging world was left reeling as British heartthrob Tom Holland, 29, was rushed to hospital after a terrifying stunt mishap on the set of Spider-Man: Brand New Day. The £150million Marvel movie's filming has been put on hold for several weeks while the star recovers from his injuries.
According to insiders, Tom cracked his head after taking a nasty fall during filming at Leavesden Studios in Watford. The incident occurred on Friday morning, with an ambulance dispatched to the scene to whisk him away to hospital for further care.
But that's not all - it seems Tom's dad Dominic had already confirmed that his son would be taking a break from filming "for a while" after attending a charity dinner in swanky Mayfair over the weekend. And if that wasn't enough, sources close to the actor revealed that he even left the event early due to feeling unwell.
Zendaya, Tom's 28-year-old fiancée and co-star, was also spotted at the charity bash, where she posed for photos with her dashing partner. However, it's unclear whether she knew about Tom's hospitalization at the time.
The East of England Ambulance Service confirmed that they received a call to Leavesden Studios on Friday morning at 10:30am, and an ambulance was dispatched to transport Tom to hospital. The service declined to comment further, but sources revealed that the actor suffered a concussion in the incident.
This latest development is bound to have major implications for the highly-anticipated Spider-Man: Brand New Day, which had already been delayed until July 31, 2026. With Tom's injury potentially putting him out of commission for several weeks or even months, it remains to be seen how this will impact production.
And if that wasn't enough drama, insiders revealed that Chris Nolan's adaptation of Homer's epic poem, The Odyssey, in which Tom and Zendaya are set to star together, is also facing a major setback. The couple's busy schedules are already taking a toll, with fans spotting them filming on location at Brookwood Cemetery in Surrey last month.
But despite the chaos, it seems that Tom and Zendaya are more committed than ever to their projects - and each other! Sources close to the couple revealed that they're still going strong after striking up a romance on the set of Spider-Man: Homecoming back in 2016. And judging by the loved-up photos from Mayfair, it's clear that their chemistry is still as sizzling hot as ever.
As fans eagerly await more news about Tom's recovery and the fate of Spider-Man: Brand New Day, they're also buzzing with excitement over the latest costume reveal for the upcoming sequel. In a short clip shared on the movie's Instagram account, Tom donned an eye-catching new suit featuring red and blue hues, complete with a bold black spider emblem emblazoned on his chest.
But while fans were largely impressed by the updated design, some took to Reddit to share their thoughts - and it seems that not everyone is convinced. "FINALLY This suit is what it should have been all along," one fan raved, but another was less enthusiastic: "looks good i just feel the spider is a little low on the chest."
And let's be real - with Tom's injury and production delays potentially throwing a wrench into the works, fans are already speculating about what this could mean for the future of the Spider-Man franchise. Will Tom make a speedy recovery? Will the movie still hit its scheduled release date? Only time will tell!
As The Scholarly Note reported earlier, the final casting for Spider-Man: Brand New Day has not been confirmed yet, but sources revealed that Stranger Things star Sadie Sink, 23, is set to join Tom and Zendaya in the highly-anticipated sequel. And judging by the trailer released recently, it's clear that this new installment promises to deliver even more thrills, spills, and superhero action than its predecessors.
But for now, let's send our best wishes to Tom Holland as he recovers from his ordeal - we can't wait to see him back on screen swinging into action as Spider-Man once again!
