After decades of superhero movies and shows dominating our screens, it's easy to forget why we fell in love with the comic book world in the first place, but a new teaser for Spider-Man: Brand New Day reminds us what the genre is really about.

In a new video created by stop motion artist Angel Link Films over on Instagram, we see a Spider-Man figurine shooting webs and flying through the air before he faces off with a Punisher action figure. This is the usual kind of content the artist and superhero fan makes. But right at the end of the clip, we are treated to an appearance from Tom Holland and Bernthal, holding their respective figurines. Check out the video below.

Now, although the new video doesn't really give anything away in terms of plot details for Brand New Day, it has to be one of our favourite teasers yet. The clip captures the childlike wonder and nostalgia of the superhero genre, reminding us of when we were children and first got into Marvel comics, movies, and toys.

Marvel fans seem to agree. "My 12-year-old self is screaming with joy for this!," commented one fan, and another added, "This is quite possibly the coolest thing I’ve ever seen."

This is not the first time Brand New Day has leaned into including superhero fans in movie marketing. Sony decided to release the first Spider-Man: Brand New Day trailer in short snippets posted by a number of content creators across social media. Tom Holland then unveiled the final product at the top of the Empire State Building, where he was joined by a bunch of Spider-Man-mad kids.

However, aside from the cutesy marketing, Spider-Man: Brand New Day won't be all sunshine and rainbows. Holland's fourth Spider-Man movie finds Peter Parker in his darkest era yet. After Doctor Strange wiped the whole world's memory of who Spider-Man really is, Parker has no friends, family, or girlfriend, so he throws himself fully into crimefighting. But when a new villain poses a huge threat to the city, Spidey has no choice but to suit up and save the day once again.

Alongside Holland and Bernthal, Brand New Day welcomes back Zendaya as MJ, Jacob Batalon as Ned Leeds, and adds Mark Ruffalo as Brce Banner/ Hulk, and Sadie Sink in a mystery role, although fans are convinced she is playing Jean Grey.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day swings into cinemas on July 31 in the US and July 29 in the UK. For more, check out our guides to upcoming Marvel movies and how to watch the Marvel movies in order.
