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 achieved one of the biggest opening weekends in box office history, grossing an estimated $927 million globally during its debut. Domestically, the Marvel Cinematic Universe film earned $355 million, narrowly missing the all-time opening weekend record held by Avengers: Endgame, which earned $357 million in 2019.

The Tom Holland-led superhero film, directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, represents the largest theatrical opening of 2026 so far. While the domestic total fell just short of the Avengers record, final figures could potentially surpass the previous record. The exceptional global performance demonstrates sustained audience appetite for Spider-Man narratives and MCU blockbusters.

The strong results underscore Spider-Man’s enduring popularity and confirm audiences remain willing to return to theaters for major superhero tentpoles, even in a landscape where theatrical attendance has faced ongoing challenges. The film’s performance sets a benchmark for major releases in the latter half of 2026.
