Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis Takes a “No Laras Left Behind” Approach

There hasn’t been a new Tomb Raider game since 2018’s Shadow of the Tomb Raider, closing out the action-adventure franchise’s Survivor Trilogy, providing the iconic protagonist Lara Croft with a more hardened origin story. The wait is finally over early next year with Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis, a reimagining of the 1996 original game […]

It was a busy day for Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man on the World Wide… internet.

After the official “Spider-Man Movie” social accounts sprung to life with some conspiracy corkboarding from Ned Leeds, we knew that news was soon to arrive. And arrive that news did with an announcement that pre-sale tickets for the latest Spider-Man film were now available along with the release of several new posters. Missing from the initial round of excitement, however, was a new trailer. That struck some as odd given that the last bit of footage released from Spider-Man: Brand New Day was more than three months old – basically an eternity in Marvel time.

cnx.cmd.push(function() {
cnx({
playerId: “106e33c0-3911-473c-b599-b1426db57530”,

}).render(“0270c398a82f44f49c23c16122516796”);
});

But then 3 p.m. ET/12 p.m. PT rolled around and, like a concentrated web blast to the face, the second official Spider-Man: Brand New Day trailer splattered across the internet. Give it a look below in its full glory.

This clip provides the most coherent rundown of the plot of Sony and Marvel’s fourth Spidey collaboration yet. Of course, there’s a lot we already knew going in. As the conclusion of Spider-Man: No Way Home promised, Peter Parker (Tom Holland) is anonymous once again, with not even Ned (Jacob Batalon) or MJ (Zendaya) remembering him. If that weren’t isolating enough, his powers are now acting up. His eyes go black during a fight against Mac Gargan a.k.a. Scorpion (Michael Mando). His mechanical web-shooters are destroyed as seemingly organic web-shooters develop in their place. As Peter usually does when confused and alone, he seeks out a mentor in the form of one of the MCU’s many useful adults. This time it’s Bruce Banner’s turn (Mark Ruffalo), who Peter hopefully notes has “found a way to suppress mutated DNA, right?”

Midway through the trailer though is the inciting twist… and it’s a big one. Some sort of psychic bomb has gone off in New York City, perhaps coinciding with the arrival of Sadie Sink as a hooded figure (*cough* Jean Grey *cough*). Suddenly, passersby on the street know the contents of Peter’s mind, apparently possessed by the aforementioned blast. Spider-Man has gone from anonymous to exposed. What’s more: a line from Trammel Tillman’s still-unnamed character suggests that he’s the only one immune to whatever just happened – though Frank Castle a.k.a. the Punisher (Jon Bernthal) seems to be doing fine as well.

There is a lot, and we mean a lot to unpack here. We will do that unpacking in the weeks leading up to and coinciding with Spider-Man: Brand New Day‘s July 31 release. For now, however, we would be remiss if we didn’t point out a particularly rad moment from the trailer.

Ahem… WEB TORNADDOOOOOOOOOOO!

When battling multiple Hand ninjas near the trailer’s conclusion, Peter puts his evolving powers to good use. He drops down from the ceiling and shoots webbing as rapidly as he can while spinning, forming a literal tornado of goo around him, which easily ensnares all the ninjas. As you might imagine, the introduction of the web tornado was very welcome on social media.

While Spider-Man has developed all sorts of novel “web constructs” through his lengthy journey in Marvel comics, the notion of a web tornado appears to be brand new… or at least we can’t recall the term turning up in the canon. The fact that this very old spider can still learn some new tricks bodes well for Peter’s battle against whatever Brand New Day throws his way.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day arrives in theaters on July 31, 2026.
