Spider-Man: Brand New Day Passes Titanic To Become 4th Highest-Grossing Movie Of All Time

Spider-Man: Brand New Day has now passed Titanic to become the fourth highest-grossing movie of all time at the worldwide box office...

As Spider-Man: Brand New Day continues to dominate the box office, only three films now stand between the Destin Daniel Cretton-directed blockbuster becoming the highest-grossing movie of all time.

According to the latest updates, Brand New Day has now taken in a massive $2.32 billion worldwide, officially sinking James Cameron's Titanic to emerge as the fourth highest-grossing film ever at the global box office.

Now only Avatar: The Way of Water ($2.33 billion), Avengers: Endgame ($2.79 billion), and the first Avatar ($2.92 billion) stand in Spidey's way.

Can Brand New Day climb to the top of the list? It's certainly possible, but ticket sales are sure to start slowing down as the movie heads into its fourth weekend in theaters. That said, analysts don't expect much in the way of competition from Coyote Vs. Acme, and even less from Ridley Scott's critically-panned The Dog Stars.

Brand New Day recently became the first solo superhero movie to reach $2 billion, and did so faster than any film in history - aside from Avengers: Endgame. Holland's fourth outing as the wall-crawler is also the highest-grossing comic book movie of the decade, and the highest-grossing Spider-Man movie ever made.

Something tells us Holland will be sticking around in that costume for a while longer!

Did you expect Spider-Man: Brand New Day to be this big? Let us know in the comments section down below.

Following the record-breaking success of Spider-Man: No Way Home, Spider-Man: Brand New Day begins a brand new chapter for Peter Parker and Spider-Man. Four years have passed since the events of No Way Home, and Peter is now an adult and living alone after erasing himself and the memories of him from those he loves. In a New York that no longer knows his name, he has devoted himself wholeheartedly to protecting his city as Spider-Man full-time.

But as the demands on him grow, he is put under increasing pressure. This triggers an unexpected physical change that threatens his existence, while a strange wave of crime emerges - and gives rise to one of the most dangerous threats he has ever faced.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day is directed by Destin Daniel Cretton and written by Chris McKenna & Erik Sommers. The film is produced by Kevin Feige, Amy Pascal, Avi Arad and Rachel O'Connor. The cast includes Tom Holland, Zendaya, Sadie, Jacob Batalon, Jon Bernthal, Tramell Tillman, Michael Mando and Mark Ruffalo.

@bobevanz - Some really cool/smart person wrote one in that Gal Gagdot article where she plays in a movie about running because she's too fat?

I got to see BND a second time yesterday and I enjoyed it more the second time. All of the creative decisions I didn't like the first time didn't really bother me as much the second time. And it very much feels like a comic book paced movie, rather than a movie based on a comic paced like a regular movie. Idk if that makes sense, but that was the thought I had at the time. The only other times I've felt that way about cbm's was for Watchmen and JL the Snyder Cut... Both of those felt paced like comics do rather than how typical films flow.

Maybe I'm just an idiot lol

Oh, and while I enjoyed it a lot, I don't think it's the 4th best film of all time. But that's not what highest grossing means, just means it was that popular. Popularity doesn't equate to quality every time. But if people spent THAT much money, it's not a matter of deserving, it EARNED that record.

But if I had a gun to my head and had to answer honestly, Titanic is the better film by a mile. Hardly a comparison.

Hopefully, studios across the board will take the right message from this: well received quality films do well. Instead, Sony will probably fast track more Spidey villain movies.
