Thanks to Doctor Strange's spell at the end of Spider-Man: No Way Home, Peter Parker is without more than his bestie Ned and girlfriend MJ in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Yep, he's without Tony Stark's financial backing in the upcoming Marvel movie, too...

With his buddy-slash-unofficial sponsor having died in Avengers: Endgame, Tom Holland's titular hero will find himself having to make his own tech this time around. How? Well, with "a 3D printer on steroids", according to script pages recently shared by director Destin Daniel Cretton (via Entertainment Weekly).

"[It's] something that could be made by a kid genius [with] limited funds," reads the scribbled note in the margin. "Sadly, the closest thing Peter has to a friend," it says, next to a mention of Peter's AI assistant E.V.

While Iron Man was wiped out by the Infinity Gauntlet a few years back, it seems safe to assume that Strange's incantation will have contributed to the fact that Peter is without "Stark money" in Brand New Day. Following Tony's death in the MCU, Pepper Potts was appointed CEO of Stark Industries, and it would've been pretty mean of her to have pulled resources from her late husband's grieving friend. It seems more likely that the spell has made her forget she knows Peter, and that he's Spider-Man, so... in short... the checks are bouncing.

Set four years after the events of its predecessor, Spider-Man: Brand New Day follows Peter as he resorts to fighting crime anonymously on the streets of New York City. But when he starts to experience moments of powerlessness he has to turn to unlikely allies – like Jon Bernthal's Punisher – to save the day.

Also starring Tramell Tillman, Eman Esfandi, Jacob Batalon, and Stranger Things' Sadie Sink, it swings into cinemas on July 31. While we wait, check out our guide to all the upcoming Marvel movies or our breakdown on how to watch the Spider-Man movies in order.
