It&#8217;s a spectacular achievement, with the box office split breaking down to an estimated $785 million domestically and $1.23 billion internationally.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Star Tom Holland and director Destin Daniel Cretton&#8217;s Brand New Day now stands at a whopping $2.022 billion (via Variety). Reaching the big $2b makes it the eighth film to do so, but despite some tremendous past successes under his belt, it&#8217;s a first for Spider-Man.<\/p>\n<p><output class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\" data-cy=\"article-video\"\/><\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Spider-Man: No Way Home came close to reaching the number upon its premiere in 2021, with its total climbing to $1.9 billion before leaving theaters (via <u>Box Office Mojo<\/u>). The race wasn&#8217;t nearly as tight before then, with Holland&#8217;s second standalone outing as Peter Parker, Far From Home, reaching <u>$1.13 billion<\/u>, while the Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield Spider-Man movies failed to cross the $1 billion mark throughout any individual releases in their respective series.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Brand New Day still finds itself in familiar company. The MCU still has two other installments \u2013 Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame \u2013 in the $2 billion club. Other qualifiers in the category include James Cameron&#8217;s Avatar and its sequel, Star Wars: Episode 7 \u2013 The Force Awakens, and Ne Zha 2.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">While Marvel and Brand New Day&#8217;s accomplishment is no doubt notable, it&#8217;s anything but a surprise. The film broke records in its opening weekend and only took a few days to earn its first billion dollars. The path to $2 billion was paved early thanks to strong reception from fans and critics, with <u>its big reveals mostly left out of trailers<\/u> as Cretton and company relied on a more practical approach to Spider-Man, audiences had a lot to show up for.<\/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 &#8211; Our Biggest Burning Questions<\/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=\"Let\u2019s lay out some of the biggest burning questions we have after Spider-Man: Brand New Day, as well as some of the smallest, and see how well we can do in also answering them!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&#10;&#10;Spoilers follow!\" decoding=\"async\" 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\">Where Holland&#8217;s new movie will finish is anyone&#8217;s guess, but it&#8217;s got a long way to go if it wants to climb to the top of the box office leaderboard.
