Spider-Man: Brand New Day Swings Closer to $2 Billion in Second Weekend in Theaters, The Odyssey Becomes Highest-Grossing Christopher Nolan Movie of All Time
August brought another standout weekend at the box office after Spider-Man: Brand New Day swung closer to $2 billion in theaters, and The Odyssey became the highest-grossing Christopher Nolan movie of all time.
In the second weekend of August, Spider-Man: Brand New Day secured a spot on the list of movies with the highest worldwide grosses, closing in on the $2 billion mark. The Tom Holland Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) film made an estimated $145 million in domestic theaters, bringing its total to $655 million domestically and $1.01 billion internationally.
With more weekends still to come, it appears highly likely that the superhero flick will surpass the $2 billion milestone. Upon reaching that number, Spider-Man: Brand New Day would now be in the same conversation as blockbusters like Avatar and Avengers: Endgame. The movie's strong performance follows The Odyssey, a Christopher Nolan-directed adaptation of Homer's epic poem, The Odyssey.
Nolan's film debuted with a record-breaking $264 million worldwide, cementing it as his highest-grossing movie of all time and surpassing his previous best with The Dark Knight Rises. The Odyssey also holds the title of the highest-grossing movie of all time in Imax theaters, earning $289.3 million worldwide.
