Marvel Studios’ upcoming film, Spider-Man: Brand New Day (2026) has added a new writer to its credits. Often, when a film is in mid-production and a scene doesn't quite work out or the dialogue doesn't flow, rewrites and reshoots occur. In this instance, the film tapped Justin Kuritzkes for these rewrites. Kuritzkes’ other credits include Challengers (2024), Queer (2024), an upcoming adaptation of the novel A City on Fire, and the scrapped DC film Sgt. Rock. Star of the film, Tom Holland, revealed this information on the podcast Good Hang with Amy Poehler, mentioning a writer named Justin who handled rewrites. This was later confirmed when his name was attached to production details for the film.
Spider-Man: Brand New Day (2026) hits theaters on July 31, 2026. The film follows Peter Parker as he devotes himself more intensely to his duties as Spider-Man in a city that no longer remembers who he is. His powers begin to evolve as a new threat rises in New York, creating a dangerous mix of challenges for the hero to face. The cast includes Holland as Peter Parker/Spider-Man, Zendaya as MJ, Jon Bernthal as Frank Castle/The Punisher, Jacob Batalon as Ned, and Mark Ruffalo as Bruce Banner/The Hulk. Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers have returned to write this film, sharing the credit with Kuritzkes. It was directed by Destin Daniel Cretton.
