Spidey keeps spinning gold as ‘Brand New Day’ stays ahead of ‘The Odyssey’ to lead North America box office for fifth week

Spider-Man: Brand New Day maintained its grip on the North American box office for a fifth week straight, despite facing fierce competition from The Odyssey. The latest Marvel film, starring Tom Holland and Zendaya, grossed US$22 million in its modest opening weekend, following students' return to school. So far, Spider-Man: Brand New Day has earned a total of US$891.5 million in the U.S. and Canada, along with an additional US$1.44 billion internationally.

In second place was Coyote vs ACME, a Warner Bros. animation-live action hybrid featuring John Cena, Will Forte, and Lana Condor. The third Looney Tunes film has made US$15.5 million in the U.S. and Canada. The Odyssey, based on Homer's ancient poem, held third with US$14.3 million in its seventh week, bringing its domestic total to US$564 million and nearly US$1 billion in international sales.

Insidious: Out of the Further, the sixth installment of the horror franchise, fell from second to fourth place, earning US$10.1 million in its second week. The Dog Stars, a post-apocalyptic drama directed by Ridley Scott, entered at fifth with US$5.6 million. The top 10 also included Buddy, The End of Oak Street, Paw Patrol: The Dino Movie, Mutiny, and Tony.
