Power couple Tom Holland Zendaya's Summer 2026 box office domination looks to continue into the fall as the latest weekend box office earnings have been tallied for Spider-Man: Brand New Day and The Odyssey.
Spider-Man: Brand New Day earned another $17.3 million globally ($6.5M domestic and $10.8 international) to bring its worldwide gross to $2.478 billion.
Meanwhile, The Odyssey added ( $4.9 million domestic and $16.2 million international) another $21.1 million globally. The film's global gross now stands at $1.721 billion as its quest to surpass the $2 billion threshold continues.
Top 5 Global Box Office (September 18-20)
- Resident Evil - $108.3 million globally
- The Odyssey - $21.1 million globally
- Practical Magic 2 - $19.2 million globally
- Spider-Man: Brand New Day - $17.3 million globally
- Coyote vs. Acme - $10.6 million globally
By the end of the year, which one do you think will be the year's top earner? Holland has the re-release of Avengers: Endgame Encore and Avengers: Doomsday to add to his total, while Zendaya will have the third and final film in Denis Villeneuve’s Dune trilogy.
In terms of ticket sales, Avengers: Doomsday is almost guaranteed to take the crown over Dune: Part Three. Still, their December 18 showdown, already dubbed "Dunesday" by fans and media alike, is setting up one of the most fascinating theatrical face-offs in recent memory.
Of course, that narrative isn't set in stone. As we get closer to release day, early critical reactions, premiere reviews, and social media buzz could easily swing the hype meter and shift the balance of power.
