Spider-Man: No Way Home was easily the most highly-anticipated superhero movie since Avengers: Endgame, so while it's not exactly surprising to learn that the Sony Pictures threequel is performing so well at the box office, it's hard to imagine anyone expected it to do this well in the midst of a pandemic.
Tom Holland's third solo outing as the wall-crawler has been breaking records since it swung into theaters last week, and we now have another to add to the list. The latest BO updates reveal that No Way Home webbed-up $37.1M on Monday, giving it the third best result for that day ever behind 2018’s Black Panther ($40.15M) and 2015’s Star Wars: Force Awakens ($40.109M). The movie is now closing in on $300M in The U.S., and currently sits at $297.2M.
Clearly, the rise of the Omicron variant of COVID-19 hasn't dissuaded too many people from paying a visit to the multiplex, because Deadline reports that there's been no drop in ticket sales and theaters are not expected to close anytime soon.
At this stage, No Way Home reaching $1 billion is all-but guaranteed, but we'll be sure to keep you updated on its progress.
