Recent reports indicate that Tom Holland might play a more significant role linked to Avengers: Doomsday despite not being officially in the cast. His connection to the film seems to be maintained through strategic Marvel marketing and storytelling.
Industry insider Daniel Richtman revealed that a new trailer for Avengers: Doomsday is being created to debut alongside Spider-Man: Brand New Day in 2026. This trailer isn’t just promotional but likely carries a deeper narrative link to Holland’s Spider-Man film, right before the release of Doomsday.
Several MCU hints suggest Tom Holland’s involvement with the Phase 6 finale. A strong indication is the scheduled release of the first Avengers: Doomsday trailer alongside Avatar: Fire and Ash on December 19, 2025 (via Collider). Considering the trailer is already set for this year, Marvel’s decision to develop a separate one for Brand New Day signals a meaningful connection.
According to insiders, if Holland appears in Avengers: Doomsday, his role might resemble his part in Avengers: Infinity War: limited screen time but significant impact.
The close release dates of both films also hint at an interconnected storyline that could unfold between them.
"Marvel Studios’ efforts for development for a new trailer specifically to go with Brand New Day raise eyebrows."
"If Holland makes an appearance in the film, it’ll be a similar role to Avengers: Infinity War, which means not a lot of screen time, but an impactful contribution nonetheless."
Author's summary: Marvel is strategically linking Tom Holland’s Spider-Man film with Avengers: Doomsday through new trailers and release timing, hinting at his impactful but limited role in the Phase 6 finale.
