Spider-Man Movies in Order: Every Film by Release, Story and Actor

By StarCelebia Editorial Team Updated

Short answer

In release order: Spider-Man (2002), Spider-Man 2, Spider-Man 3, The Amazing Spider-Man, The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Homecoming, Into the Spider-Verse, Far From Home, No Way Home, Across the Spider-Verse and Brand New Day (2026). Tom Holland also appears in Civil War, Infinity War and Endgame.

Spider-Man has carried 11 theatrical films of his own since 2002, played by three live-action actors and voiced in two animated hits. Tom Holland’s version also swings through three Avengers-era films, and Sony runs a separate set of Venom-adjacent movies alongside them. This guide puts all of it in order, marks what is essential, and gives you real runtimes for planning a marathon.

Spider-Man movies in release order

These are all 20 theatrical films tied to the character, from Sam Raimi’s 2002 original to Spider-Man: Brand New Day, which opened in US theaters on July 31, 2026. Dates are US wide releases. Runtimes are the BBFC’s timed cinema versions, rounded to the nearest minute, so other listings may differ by a few minutes.

20 Spider-Man: Brand New Day July 31, 2026 145 MCU (Holland)

How many Spider-Man movies are there?

Counting only films where Spider-Man is the lead, there are 11: three by Raimi, two by Marc Webb, four solo Holland films and two animated Spider-Verse films. Add the three Avengers-era team-ups and you get 14 films with Peter Parker on screen. Sony’s six spinoffs bring the full list to 20.

Story order: Tom Holland’s MCU timeline

The Raimi and Webb films each run in a straight line, so their release order is their story order. Holland’s Peter Parker is the one that needs a map, because his arc runs through the Avengers films. This is the order to watch for his story, with a keep-or-skip call on each.

Step Film Runtime (min) Essential? Why
1 Captain America: Civil War (2016) 147 Recommended Holland’s first appearance as Peter Parker
2 Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017) 134 Essential His first solo story, against Michael Keaton’s Vulture
3 Avengers: Infinity War (2018) 149 Recommended Peter fights alongside the Avengers
4 Avengers: Endgame (2019) 181 Recommended Far From Home deals with its fallout
5 Spider-Man: Far From Home (2019) 129 Essential The ending leads straight into No Way Home
6 Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021) 148 Essential The multiverse film that resets Peter’s life
7 Spider-Man: Brand New Day (2026) 145 Essential Picks up with Peter alone in a world that forgot him

Total for all seven: 1,033 minutes, or 17 hours and 13 minutes.

What should I watch before Spider-Man: Brand New Day?

Here is the shortest path that still makes sense: Homecoming, Far From Home, No Way Home, then Brand New Day. That is 556 minutes, about 9 hours and 16 minutes. Sony’s official synopsis describes Peter as a full-time Spider-Man in a world that has forgotten him, which only lands if you saw how No Way Home ends.

If you have one more evening, add the three Raimi films. No Way Home brings back Willem Dafoe’s Green Goblin, Alfred Molina’s Doc Ock and Jamie Foxx’s Electro, and the film also brings back Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield as their own versions of Peter Parker. The film is still watchable without that history, but the payoff is much bigger with it.

Where do Civil War, Infinity War and Endgame fit?

Civil War comes before Homecoming, and Infinity War and Endgame sit between Homecoming and Far From Home. You can skip all three and still follow the solo films, but you will hit references to Tony Stark and the Avengers that assume you know what happened. For the bigger picture, our Marvel movies in order guide places these films inside the full MCU.

Brand New Day also brings in characters from other Marvel corners. Sony’s cast list includes Jon Bernthal as Frank Castle, The Punisher, next to returning stars Zendaya and Jacob Batalon.

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse December 14, 2018 117 Bob Persichetti, Peter Ramsey, Rodney Rothman

Total: 257 minutes (4 hours 17 minutes). Shameik Moore voices Miles Morales, with Hailee Steinfeld as Gwen Stacy. A third film continues Miles’s story, so treat these two as the first two parts of a trilogy.

How Sony’s Spider-Man Universe fits

Sony made six films about Spider-Man’s villains and side characters between 2018 and 2024. Tom Hardy leads the three Venom films, Jared Leto plays Morbius, Dakota Johnson plays Cassandra Webb in Madame Web, and Aaron Taylor-Johnson plays Kraven.

Film US release Runtime (min) Keep or skip
Venom October 5, 2018 112 Keep if you want the Venom trilogy
Venom: Let There Be Carnage October 1, 2021 97 Keep for Venom fans
Morbius April 1, 2022 104 Optional
Madame Web February 14, 2024 116 Optional
Venom: The Last Dance October 25, 2024 109 Keep to finish the Venom story
Kraven the Hunter December 13, 2024 127 Optional

Total: 665 minutes (11 hours 5 minutes).

Are the Venom movies connected to Tom Holland’s Spider-Man?

Only loosely. These films are their own series, and nothing in Holland’s solo films depends on them. The clearest on-screen link is Morbius, which credits Michael Keaton as Adrian Toomes, the villain Keaton first played in Homecoming. If you want them in a single run, the simplest approach is to watch them in release order as a separate block.

Total marathon runtime

Block Films Minutes Hours
Raimi trilogy 3 390 6h 30m
Webb films 2 278 4h 38m
Holland solo films 4 556 9h 16m
Spider-Verse 2 257 4h 17m
All 11 Spider-Man films 11 1,481 24h 41m
Plus Holland’s 3 team-ups 14 1,958 32h 38m
Plus Sony’s 6 spinoffs 20 2,623 43h 43m

A realistic plan for the 11 core films is three long weekends: Raimi plus Webb on the first, Holland on the second, and the Spider-Verse films as a short third session. For other franchise marathons, see our Maze Runner movies in order and Avatar movies in order guides.

Upcoming Spider-Man movies

Only one new Spider-Man feature has an officially scheduled date as of October 30, 2026.

Film Scheduled US release Status
Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse June 18, 2027 Scheduled, Columbia Pictures

Sony moved the third Spider-Verse film up one week, from June 25 to June 18, 2027, and its Rotten Tomatoes listing still shows that date, with Bob Persichetti and Justin K. Thompson directing. It continues Miles Morales’s story directly from Across the Spider-Verse, so watch Into and Across first.

No follow-up to Brand New Day has an announced title or date yet. We will add one here when Sony or Marvel Studios sets it.

Which order is best for a first-time viewer?

Go by release date if this is your first time through. Each new Peter Parker arrives when he first reached theaters, so the crossovers in No Way Home and the fallout in Brand New Day land as intended. Slot the Spider-Verse films in wherever you need a break, since they stand on their own.

If you only care about Holland, use the story-order table above and skip the Sony spinoffs. If you are short on time, the four-film minimum path gets you ready for Brand New Day in one long day.

Questions people ask

Do I have to watch the Venom movies before the Spider-Man movies?

No. Sony's Venom, Morbius, Madame Web and Kraven films run as their own series, and none of Tom Holland's Spider-Man films requires them. Watch them only if you like those characters.

Which Spider-Man movies should I watch before Brand New Day?

At minimum, watch Homecoming, Far From Home and No Way Home, since Brand New Day picks up with Peter Parker living in a world that has forgotten him. Watching the Raimi and Webb films first makes No Way Home hit much harder.

When does Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse come out?

Sony has the third animated Spider-Verse film scheduled for US theaters on June 18, 2027. The date has moved several times, so check again closer to release.

Are the Spider-Verse movies part of the live-action timeline?

No. The two animated films follow Miles Morales in their own continuity. You can watch them at any point without missing anything in the live-action films.

How long does it take to watch every Spider-Man movie?

The 11 films with Spider-Man in the title run about 24 hours and 41 minutes in total. Add Holland's three Avengers-era team-ups and the marathon grows to about 32 hours and 38 minutes.
