Spider-Man
Tom Holland's Spider-Man just did this unthinkable at the global Box Office
Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios' latest superhero blockbuster, Spider-Man: Brand New Day, continues to dominate the global box office, delivering one of the biggest opening weekends in cinematic history.
According to the latest box office figures, Spider-Man: Brand New Day recorded a massive $355 million opening weekend in North America, making it the second-biggest domestic debut of all time, behind only Avengers: Endgame, which opened to $357 million in 2019, CNN reported.
The film has also enjoyed a spectacular global launch, grossing $927 million worldwide during its opening weekend, making it the second-largest worldwide opening ever, according to Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst at Comscore.
The latest installment significantly outperformed its predecessor in North America. Spider-Man: No Way Home, released in 2021, debuted with $260 million in the domestic market.
Chris Colombo, founder of box office analytics firm Brighter Path, described the film as a "perfect storm" for blockbuster success.
"You have the intellectual property, you have the character, you have the (fear of missing out) — plus good reviews," Colombo told CNN.
