Spider-Man: Brand New Day just had another astonishing weekend, grossing $145 million at the North American box office. In the process, more records have been broken, as its incredible $655 million U.S. cume gives it the highest 10-day domestic total in box office history.
It beats the previous record holder, Avengers: Endgame, which reached $621.2 million in the same span back in 2019.
The blockbuster fell short of beating Avengers: Endgame ($147.3 million) and Star Wars: The Force Awakens ($149.2 million) for the second-biggest weekend ever, but this is the first Sony Pictures movie to clear $100 million in its second weekend. The previous record-holder for the studio was 2021's Spider-Man: No Way Home with $84.5 million.
IMAX screens contributed 7% ($9.8 million) of this weekend's earnings, with many fans rushing to see Spider-Man: Brand New Day on the biggest screen possible.
At the worldwide box office, the Destin Daniel Cretton-helmed feature has reached an amazing $1.67 billion and is now the second-fastest movie to cross $1 billion overseas. As of now, it's the 12th-biggest movie ever, but you can expect it to quickly swing up the charts.
$2 billion is just days away, and how much higher than that Spider-Man: Brand New Day can go will hinge on repeat viewings and positive word-of-mouth, neither of which seems to be an issue for the webbed wonder.
Understandably, we've talked a lot about Spider-Man: Brand New Day's box office performance this past week. We're going to end this story with something of a Spidey news roundup, though, starting with a first look at two of the movie's 4K SteelBooks.
We also have a new poster for Spider-Man: Brand New Day that cleverly teases the movie's X-Men connection.
A featurette, meanwhile, reveals that the blockbuster used a special POV camera for Spidey's final battle with The Hand. We've heard that a much longer version of the clash exists, so here's hoping it's included in the eventual Blu-ray release.
Finally, Ahsoka star Eman Esfandi has taken to social media to debunk claims that he plays Mary Jane Watson's reviled boyfriend from the comics, Paul, in Spider-Man: Brand New Day.
