Tom Holland Is Starting His Own Production Company

Tom Holland is strengthening his partnership with Sony Pictures by signing a deal to develop films through his newly formed production company, Billy17. The company was established alongside his brother Harry Holland and producer Will South.

Sony recently announced that the fourth “Spider-Man” movie starring Tom Holland is scheduled to hit theaters on July 24, 2026 and will be directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, known for “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.”

Holland, along with Harry (the two have two other brothers, Sam and Paddy) and South, are kicking off their production company with an original project titled Burnt. Academy Award-winning filmmaker Rodney Rothman (“Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse”) is set to write the script, which has been described as a “starring vehicle” for the Uncharted actor, according to PEOPLE.

Billy17 is also gearing up to adapt the novel “The Rosie Project” for Sony’s TriStar Pictures, as well as an adaptation of another novel, “The Winner.” The latter project is anticipated to feature Holland in a starring role.

“I’ve had an incredibly happy and successful relationship with Sony Pictures for almost a decade, so they felt like the perfect partner to launch our production company with,” Holland said in a statement. “It’s been an ambition of mine to take this step for some time now, and we’re incredibly excited to bring entertaining, and rewatchable movies to the big screen.”

Holland added, “This is the hope for us, and it starts with Burnt, an idea which has been sitting in our heads for a few years, and having Rodney attached to pen our most ambitious project is incredible. We’re diving into the deep end here, and we’re extremely excited for what comes next.”

Sony Pictures’ Motion Picture Group chairman and CEO Tom Rothman said:

“Tom, Harry, and Will are bursting with cool ideas, and have the zeal to follow through on them. Sony is lucky as hell to be extending our already immensely successful relationship with Tom, and our ongoing work on the franchises we have together, to a new era which will take advantage of the trios producing skills, in wonderful addition to Tom’s extraordinary acting abilities. We are pushing hard on these new projects, with doubtless more to come.”

The deal further solidifies Sony Pictures’ strong partnership with Holland, who starred in and executive produced “Uncharted.” The film grossed $407 million globally, making it the fourth highest-grossing video game adaptation domestically. Holland also headlined Jon Watts’ “Spider-Man” trilogy, which has collectively earned nearly $4 billion worldwide.

Holland and Zendaya recently made a rare public outing together, visiting Boston’s Foxhole bar. Holland shared photos from their date on his Instagram Stories, a rare glimpse into the couple’s private life.

The occasion was tied to Holland’s promotion of his new nonalcoholic beer brand, Bero, which the two enjoyed during their visit. In a sweet touch, Holland added heart-eye emojis to a photo featuring Zendaya, making the moment even more memorable.

In October, Holland made headlines when he stepped in to protect Zendaya from aggressive photographers during an outing in New York City. As paparazzi crowded the actress, Holland pulled her to safety, creating a physical barrier between her and the mob.

Last night, Zendaya returned the support by attending the launch of Holland’s new non-alcoholic beer brand, Bero, in New York City.

The couple turned heads in coordinating ensembles, with Zendaya dazzling in a deep red, skin-tight leather Louis Vuitton dress featuring a plunging neckline and a thigh-high slit. She paired the look with matching Christian Louboutin heels and a delicate Bulgari necklace. Holland complemented her effortlessly, wearing a wine-colored tee with black pants and white Prada sneakers, showcasing the duo’s signature chic style.

“Get out of the f-cking way,” Holland was heard saying as he pushed through the aggressive crowd of paparazzi. Zendaya, who was signing autographs, appeared to calmly reassure him, saying, “No, no, it’s okay, Tom.” Despite her words, Holland protectively grabbed Zendaya’s arm, guiding her through the swarm as they made their way out of the chaotic scene.
