Although these estimations still fell short of records broken by Marvel&#8217;s <u>Avengers: Endgame<\/u> in 2019, Spider-Man: Brand New Day will comfortably swing away from its debut with the biggest opening of the year so far.<\/p>\n<p><output class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\" data-cy=\"article-video\"\/><\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Let&#8217;s break down the numbers. Domestically, the MCU Spidey flick brought in an estimated $355 million from its 4,487 theaters, with its international total sitting at $572 million. The broken records that come with that include the biggest opening ever for a Sony or Spider-Man movie, but it does still <u>fall short of what Endgame was able to bring in<\/u>.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The MCU team-up film opened to $357.1 million domestically \u2013 a painful $2 million more than Spider-Man: Brand New Day \u2013 and an unbelievable $1.2 billion globally. Although Holland, who appears in both films, comes out a winner either way, the new Spider-Man movie does still come in second on both accounts \u2013 but there is a catch.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The box office calculations we&#8217;re seeing today are the estimates for the weekend as final totals for Sunday are tallied. Although Endgame\u2019s spot globally seems secure, the domestic race is brutally close. A small bump could potentially see Spidey take the domestic crown as the count is ironed out in the coming days. Regardless, it won&#8217;t be all second-place victories for Spider-Man, as the film still managed to eke out wins with <u>the biggest preview sales of all time<\/u>, and <u>the biggest opening day sales of all time<\/u>.<\/p>\n<p><output class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\" data-cy=\"article-slideshow\"><button type=\"button\" style=\"display:none\" class=\"jsx-2228525885\"\/><span data-cy=\"slideshow-view-trigger\"><\/p>\n<div data-cy=\"slideshow-preview\" class=\"jsx-1711207865 slideshow-preview\">\n<h3 class=\"title5 jsx-62124236 jsx-1085005187\" data-cy=\"slideshow-preview-title\">Spider-Man: Brand New Day Images<\/h3>\n<div data-cy=\"slideshow-images-container\" class=\"jsx-1711207865 images-container\"><button type=\"button\" data-cy=\"hero-image\" aria-label=\"Open Slideshow\" class=\"jsx-1711207865 hero-image\"><img alt=\"\" aria-hidden=\"true\" decoding=\"async\" role=\"presentation\" class=\"progressive-image jsx-2896921488 image aspect-ratio aspect-ratio-16-9 jsx-2605834259 jsx-2338608387 hover-opacity\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-cy=\"progressive-image\"\/><span class=\"button-text jsx-729543028 button button--primary jsx-3027214138 jsx-4266531355 row-pagination-button next contained centered round large\" data-cy=\"paginate next\" title=\"Open Slideshow\"><span class=\"ign-icon right-chevron jsx-2750866048 jsx-2919720488\" role=\"presentation\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-cy=\"right-chevron\" style=\"mask:url(https:\/\/kraken.ignimgs.com\/_next\/static\/media\/RightChevron.272be43c.svg?cors=1) no-repeat center center \/ contain;background:currentColor\"\/><\/span><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/output><\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">At just shy of $1 billion at the global box office, Spider-Man: Brand New Day could very well be the biggest earner of the year by the time 2026 ends. In this case (as well as many others), Marvel is likely its biggest competitor, with <u>Avengers: Doomsday<\/u> sure to <u>have theaters swarming with moviegoers<\/u> when its opening weekend arrives this December. Even then, either film could outperform the other when all is said and done as fans line up to catch the biggest reveals Marvel has to offer.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">No matter how the future shakes out for Spidey, there was only one clear victor during the 2026 July-to-August weekend: movie fans. It was the biggest collective weekend in domestic box office history, reaching $430 million across the films available in theaters (via <u>Variety<\/u>).<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Spider-Man: Brand New Day predictably made up the bulk of that number, with <u>The Odyssey<\/u> coming in second place at $51 million, <u>Toy Story 5<\/u> in third with $6.3 million, <u>Minions &amp; Monsters<\/u> in fourth with $5.8 million, and Disney&#8217;s live-action <u>Moana<\/u> in fifth with $5.3 million. As the new animated Pixar film continues to build past the <u>$1 billion milestone it reached<\/u> last weekend, Christopher Nolan&#8217;s epic adaptation is inching closer to it. The Odyssey now stands tall with $911.4 million worldwide as it continues to charge through expectations <u>following its impressive debut<\/u>.<\/p>\n<p><span data-cy=\"poll-view-trigger\"><\/p>\n<section class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\"\/><\/span><\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Spider-Man: Brand New Day stars Holland, Zendaya, Sadie Sink, Jacob Batalon, Jon Bernthal, and more and picks up after the events of Spider-Man: No Way Home saw everyone on Earth lose their memories of Peter Parker. Despite just two movies on the calendar for 2026, the year could end up being one of Marvel Studios&#8217; biggest ever. We&#8217;ll know if the new Spidey flick managed to secure a win over Endgame or get stuck in second in the coming days.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Until then, you can check out IGN&#8217;s <u>7\/10 review<\/u> for the film.
