Spider-Man: Brand New Day Has Record-Breaking Monday, Becomes Second-Fastest Movie To Hit $1 Billion

There's simply no stopping Spider-Man: Brand New Day, as the Sony Pictures/Marvel Studios movie has broken more records on Monday, both in North America and at the worldwide box office.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day can't stop breaking records, as it just set another in North America, webbing up the biggest Monday ever with $47 million. With that, the movie has easily beaten previous record-holders Black Panther ($40.15 million) and Star Wars: The Force Awakens ($40.1 million).

That takes the blockbuster's current domestic cume to a spectacular $407 million, meaning it's already 2026's third-highest-grossing title behind Toy Story 5 ($463.3 million) and The Super Mario Galaxy Movie ($429.8 million).

To put these numbers into context for you, The Odyssey reached $405 million yesterday after opening on July 17. At this rate, analysts expect Spider-Man: Brand New Day to post the second-biggest weekend ever, beating The Force Awakens ($149.2 million) and Avengers: Endgame ($147.3 million). 

The good news keeps coming for Spider-Man: Brand New Day, as it also passed $1 billion on Monday, becoming the second-fastest movie to reach that global milestone after Avengers: Endgame. That beat the web-slinger by one day, with a $1.22 billion global bow. As of now, Spidey's latest solo outing has earned $1.052 billion. 

"Whether you live in Peru, Pakistan, or Peoria, everyone wants friends and wants connection with everyone. Fundamentally, this is a movie about friendship and hope," Sony Pictures CEO Tom Rothman told Deadline today. 

"We led with emotion," he said of Spider-Man: Brand New Day's marketing campaign. "We stayed with that emotion all day (throughout the campaign). For all the whiz-bang, the audience doesn’t care about what a movie costs; they care about how it makes them feel. We kept the emotion and the character front and centre."

Addressing the future, Rothman once again claimed that no deals are in place for Spider-Man 5. All he'd say is, "I hope Tom Holland comes back."

A new IMAX poster for Spider-Man: Brand New Day has also been released. Check it out below, along with a new Spidey-themed IMAX logo.

In Spider-Man: Brand New Day, it's a Brand New Day for Peter Parker. Fighting crime full-time as Spider-Man in a world that doesn’t remember him—and the pressure of seeing his old friends move on without him—sparks a change in Peter he may not have the power to control.

But that transformation might also be the only thing that can stop a shocking new threat to the city and those he loves - a powerful villain no one can even see. The world may have forgotten Peter Parker, but he hasn’t forgotten them.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day's cast includes Tom Holland, Zendaya, Sadie, Jacob Batalon, Jon Bernthal, Tramell Tillman, Michael Mando, and Mark Ruffalo. 

The movie is directed by Destin Daniel Cretton and written by Chris McKenna & Erik Sommers. The film is produced by Kevin Feige, Amy Pascal, Avi Arad and Rachel O'Connor. Executive producers include Louis D'Esposito and David Cain. 

Spider-Man: Brand New Day is now playing in theaters.

@incredibleTalk - I don't think they need it. Disney only spends 25% of the production cost and takes 25% of the profit. If a Spider-Man movie makes $2B on a $200M production cost with a $200M marketing cost, Disney makes 200M in profit for spending $50M, while Sony makes $400M in profit for spending $350M, which includes 100% of the marketing cost. Of course, roughly $1B goes to theaters, give or take.

Now, imagine what it would have been like if Disney had gotten the 50% profit/budget sharing model they were after when Far From Home came out. Disney's profit would have been $400M, while Sony's would have been $200M.

We need the Cretton cut when (eventually) it's released on Blu-ray.

This is the 12th MCU movie to reach $1 billion and of those 12, 2 reached 2 billion. Absolutely mind-blowing.

To put this in context, only four movies (well, 3 actually since Joker isn't really a DC movie) in the entire history of DC have reached 1 billion, and none of them came even close to reaching 1.2 billion, let alone 2 billion.
