Is Tom Holland’s Spider-Man Heading to Television? A New Peter Parker Series Is Rumored

A new Spider-Man rumor is making the rounds online — and if it proves true, it could mark one of the biggest changes yet for Tom Holland’s version of Peter Parker.

According to a report attributed to entertainment insider Daniel Richtman, Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios are said to be considering a live-action Peter Parker television series with Holland returning as both Peter Parker and Spider-Man.

The reported plan would place the series after the current run of major Marvel films and potentially move Holland’s Spider-Man into long-form television storytelling for the first time.

But there is one important thing to make clear:

Neither Sony Pictures nor Marvel Studios has officially announced the project.

As of September 17, 2026, the story remains an industry rumor.

What Is Being Reported?

The current report claims the proposed series would feature:

• Tom Holland returning as Peter Parker / Spider-Man • Approximately 10 episodes per season • Gwen Stacy and Black Cat being considered as major characters • Production beginning sometime in 2028 • The story taking place after Avengers: Secret Wars

Those details have been widely circulated on social media, but none have been confirmed by Sony or Marvel.

That distinction matters, especially with Spider-Man.

Few franchises generate more speculation, casting rumors and supposed insider reports than Marvel’s web-slinger.

Why Television Would Be a Big Change for Peter Parker

Tom Holland’s Spider-Man has so far existed primarily in theatrical films.

His Peter Parker debuted in Captain America: Civil War before appearing across multiple Avengers and Spider-Man films.

A live-action television series would give the character something the movies rarely have:

Time.

Peter Parker’s story has always involved more than superhero fights.

School.

Work.

Friendships.

Relationships.

Money.

New York City.

The difficulty of trying to maintain an ordinary life while secretly being Spider-Man.

A 10-episode season could potentially spend far more time exploring those parts of the character than a two-hour movie can.

Gwen Stacy and Black Cat?

Two names attached to the rumor are particularly interesting.

Gwen Stacy has been one of the most important characters in Peter Parker’s comic-book history and has previously appeared in live-action Spider-Man films played by Bryce Dallas Howard and Emma Stone.

Felicia Hardy — better known as Black Cat — has an equally long history with Spider-Man but has never received a full live-action interpretation within Holland’s version of the character.

Introducing either character would open up major new story possibilities for Peter.

Introducing both could signal a very different chapter in his life.

Again, neither character has been officially confirmed.

The Timing Makes Sense — At Least on Paper

The rumored 2028 production timeline would place the project after the current phase of Marvel storytelling.

Holland’s latest theatrical outing, Spider-Man: Brand New Day, arrived in theaters in July 2026 and continued Peter Parker’s story following the events of No Way Home.

Sony’s official synopsis describes Peter as fighting crime full-time in a world that no longer remembers him.

That creates an interesting foundation for a television series.

A more isolated Peter Parker rebuilding his personal life could work particularly well in an episodic format.

Whether Sony and Marvel actually intend to take the character in that direction remains to be seen.

From a Collector’s Eye

A live-action Spider-Man television series would also be fascinating from a production perspective.

A season of television requires significantly more physical material than a single feature film.

Potential production assets could include:

• Multiple Spider-Man suits • Hero and stunt suit variations • Peter Parker wardrobe • Daily Bugle material • New York signage • Apartment set dressing • Character-specific props • Weapons and villain equipment • Police and emergency-service wardrobe • Background costumes • Specialty stunt pieces

Television productions often require duplicate costumes and props because the same material may be needed across multiple episodes, shooting units and stunt sequences.

For collectors, that can create an entirely different production footprint than a standalone film.

For Now, It’s a Rumor

Spider-Man fans have plenty of reason to be interested.

But until Sony Pictures or Marvel Studios makes an announcement, the safest way to view this report is as an intriguing possibility rather than a confirmed production.

Tom Holland is firmly established as Sony and Marvel’s current Peter Parker, and Spider-Man: Brand New Day has already continued his story into a new chapter.

Whether that chapter eventually expands onto television is the part we’ll be watching.

If an official announcement arrives, we’ll update this story.
