Spider-Man: Brand New Day Comes Close to Passing Avengers: Endgame With Second Biggest Box Office Debut of All Time at $927 Million Globally

Spider-Man: Brand New Day made a splash at the box office, debuting with an estimated $927 million globally in its opening weekend. Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, the Tom Holland-led superhero film proved capable of competing with the big leagues. While not quite matching the record-breaking opening of Avengers: Endgame in 2019, Spider-Man: Brand New Day still surpassed domestic box office openings for the year thus far, claiming the biggest debut of the year.

Domestically, the movie pulled in $355 million from 4,487 theaters, while internationally it claimed $572 million. The new Spider-Man film edged out Marvel's team-up film, Avengers: Endgame, in both domestic and global sales, albeit by a slim margin. The movie's impressive debut was fueled by record-breaking preview sales and opening day sales, making it the biggest earner of the year by the end of 2026.

However, the final domestic victory could still be in the balance, as a slight rise in ticket sales could propel Spider-Man to the top spot. The film's success was a boon for moviegoers, as it marked the biggest weekend of the year in terms of domestic box office history, raking in $430 million across all films in theaters.
