Tom Holland has admitted that a different version of Spider-Man: Brand New Day fell completely flat. Tom Holland says an early cut of Spider-Man: Brand New Day ‘totally didn’t work’Holland explained to Quotable just how dramatically a blockbuster can transform in the editing room. The creative team screened multiple versions of Spider-Man: Brand New Day during post-production, but one attempt to please test audiences backfired spectacularly. And it’s what the people were asking for, but it wasn’t quite what we wanted as the creatives,” Tom Holland added. Director Destin Daniel Cretton and screenwriters Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers ultimately steered Spider-Man: Brand New Day back toward their original vision.
