Tom Holland has managed to swing right into some trouble. The Spider-Man playing star has caught more than just bad guys this time, with a stunt gone a little too sideways than usual on the Spider-Man: Brand New Day set in Leavesden Studios. While he might be known for risking it all to nail those gravity-defying moves, Holland’s latest stunt turned costly, and not in merry box office terms this time. 

Not all superheroes wear capes—sometimes they wear hospital gowns. Tom Holland’s latest stunt did not quite stick the landing, and fans might have their breath a little ragged from the uncertainty.

The most recent updates have revealed that Tom Holland suffered a mild concussion on September 19, 2025, after a fall during filming. The Sun detailed that Holland, along with a female stunt double, was rushed to the hospital, leading to production being suspended with no confirmed resumption date. Despite the injury, Holland attended a charity gala the next day with his family and fiancée Zendaya, reassuring fans about his recovery in the meantime. 

According to The Sun, the injury stemmed from after Holland “cracked his head” in a fall during a complex stunt. Though the phrase sounds alarming, official reports clarify it is a mild concussion that requires rest but is not life-threatening. Production insiders like Sony have been confirmed to meet and discuss a careful review and revision of the filming schedule to prioritize Tom Holland’s health.
