Spider-Man is weaving a web of success at the box office with a record-breaking first week worldwide. Tom Holland’s latest adventure as the friendly neighbourhood superhero - Spider-Man: Brand New Day - has become the fastest to half a billion dollars in North America, beating a mark set by Avengers: Endgame. In the process, it has also sailed past $1.2 billion at the worldwide box office.
Spider-Man Brand New Day box office update
Brand New Day had a record-breaking debut in North America, as the Tom Holland-starrer shattered Endgame’s long-held record of $355 million opening with its own start of $360 million. This included the biggest paid preview haul and the biggest day 1 ever. Globally, the film crossed $900 million in its opening weekend, the second-biggest global opening ever. In just six days, Spider-Man Brand New Day crossed $1 billion, again becoming the second-fastest to do so.
By Thursday, the film had amassed an astonishing $508 million in North America, including $27 million on its first Thursday, a new record. This makes Brand New Day the first film to earn over half a billion dollars in its opening week domestically, beating Avengers: Endgame again. Internationally, the film has earned over $740 million so far, taking its global haul to a more-than-impressive $1.25 billion.
In just one week, Brand New Day has entered the top 30 highest-grossing films of all time. Given the current projections for week 2, the Marvel-Sony superhero adventure should enter the top 10 by the end of this week. Brand New Day is being pegged to easily cross $2 billion and is expected by many to become only the third film to breach the $2.5 billion mark.
