TL;DRSpider-Man Brand New Day earned $355M domestically and $927M globally, the second-biggest opening weekend ever
Spider-Man: Brand New Day earned $355 million in US and Canadian ticket sales in its opening weekend, Sony confirmed on Saturday. The figure makes it the second-biggest domestic opening in history, falling just $2 million short of Avengers: Endgame’s $357 million record from 2019. Internationally, the film collected $573 million, bringing its global opening to $927 million.
The film, directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, marks Tom Holland’s fourth appearance as Peter Parker. Zendaya returns as MJ in a story that follows Parker fighting crime in a world that has forgotten he is Spider-Man. The cast also includes Sadie Sink, Jon Bernthal, Jacob Batalon, and Michael Mando.
Brand New Day set an opening-day record of $168 million on Friday, surpassing Endgame’s $157 million single-day mark. It also broke the record for preview screenings with $72 million on Thursday night, according to data from Rentrak.
Tom Rothman, chairman and chief executive of Sony Pictures Entertainment’s Motion Picture Group, credited the film’s broad appeal. “Brand New Day is fundamentally a movie about friendship, about the balm of connection in all our lives, and that is resonant to audiences of all ages and all around the world,” Rothman said.
