Spider-Man: Brand New Day beats Avengers: Endgame box office record
- Sony Pictures said "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" earned $360 million in its North American opening weekend, surpassing "Avengers: Endgame" for the biggest domestic debut ever.
- The studio had initially projected about $355 million for the film's first weekend, but stronger-than-expected Sunday ticket sales pushed it higher.
- Before "Avengers: Endgame," no movie had opened above $300 million domestically; earlier records were held by "Avengers: Infinity War" and "Star Wars: The Force Awakens."
- The film stars Tom Holland, and its strong debut added to the success of "The Odyssey," which also features Holland, Zendaya and Jon Bernthal.
- Together, the two films helped drive the biggest weekend ever for North American movie theaters, with domestic box office revenue up more than 15% year over year to over $6.2 billion so far.
Sony Pictures said "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" set a new North American opening weekend record with $360 million in ticket sales from the United States and Canada. That total passed the previous mark of $357 million held by "Avengers: Endgame" since 2019.
The studio had forecast roughly $355 million for the film's debut on Sunday, but stronger-than-expected attendance that day lifted the final figure. Tom Rothman, chairman and CEO of Sony Pictures Motion Picture Group, said the company was proud of the result.
The article notes that before "Avengers: Endgame," no film had opened above $300 million domestically. Earlier records were set by "Avengers: Infinity War" in 2018 and "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" in 2015. Tom Holland's previous Spider-Man film, "No Way Home," also made the list with a $260 million opening in 2021.
The strong performance of "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" and "The Odyssey," which share several cast members, helped produce the biggest weekend ever for North American movie theaters. According to Rentrak, domestic box office revenue is up more than 15% from last year and has topped $6.2 billion so far.
