Spider-Man 4 continues to ramp up development, with a new update suggesting the film has officially found a key member of its crew.

Who has been added to the Spider-Man: Brand New Day crew?

According to what looks to be a resume found by users on social media, Alistair Williams has joined the upcoming film as its Special Effects Supervisor. Williams has history with Marvel, having worked on the upcoming The Fantastic Four: First Steps, as well as working on other big projects like Kraven the Hunter, The Gorge, How to Train Your Dragon, and several Fast & Furious movies.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day is being directed by Destin Daniel Cretton from a screenplay written by Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers. The movie will once again be led by Tom Holland as he reprises his role as Peter Parker/Spider-Man. Emmy winner Zendaya and Jacob Batalo are also expected to return for the sequel.

They will be joined by recently announced new cast members Sadie Sink (Stranger Things) and Liza Colón-Zayas (The Bear), with Jon Bernthal set to make his movie debut as Frank Castle/Punisher. The latter recently played the anti-hero again in Daredevil: Born Again Season 1. The movie is produced by Kevin Feige, Amy Pascal, Rachel O’Connor, and Avi Arad.

Spider-Man 4 will be released in United States theaters on July 31, 2026 ahead of Avengers: Doomsday (December 18, 2026) and Avengers: Secret Wars (December 17, 2027), following Doomsday’s delay.
