"Spider-Man: Brand New Day" remained the No. 1 movie in theaters for the sixth consecutive weekend, grossing $18 million domestically over the Friday-through-Sunday period. The film has accumulated a worldwide total of $2.4 billion as of September 7, 2026.

The latest domestic haul brings the cumulative North American gross to $923 million. Sony forecasts the title will earn an estimated $23.3 million over the four-day Labor Day holiday weekend.

This performance places the release as the third-biggest global box office entry in history. It trails only 2009’s "Avatar," which earned $2.9 billion, and "Avengers: Endgame, which secured $2.7 billion. The film also surpassed the $2.3 billion global total achieved by 2022’s Avatar: The Way of Water."

Domestically, the movie crossed the $900 million mark in just 36 days after its July 31, 2026, release. This pace beat the previous record for fastest to $900 million domestic, which was set by 2015’s Star Wars: The Force Awakens in 50 days. It is the second film this decade to lead the box office for six straight weeks, following 2022’s Avatar: The Way of Water.

Tom Rothman, Chairman and CEO of Sony Pictures Motion Picture Group, said that for a result like that to happen, everything has to work perfectly. He spoke at the Lumière Summit in Saint-Paul-de-Vence on Monday.

Rothman noted the cultural resonance of the current theatrical landscape. He said movies were cool and had become cultural again because they were culturally significant. He added that specificity leads to universality regarding the film's appeal.

The production involved Columbia Pictures, Marvel Studios, and Pascal Pictures. It serves as the 38th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) and is the fourth standalone Spider-Man film starring Tom Holland.

Former Spider-Man actor Andrew Garfield addressed the new film in an interview on September 3, 2026. He stated he has not seen "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" or "The Odyssey." Garfield said he will not appear in "Avengers: Doomsday." Regarding Holland's work, Garfield said he does not want to be disingenuous, and that a movie making money and people going to see it is an incredible thing, but he will reach out to Holland once he’s seen the Spider-Man film, which he is very excited to see. He also said he hasn’t managed to see The Odyssey yet and will send a message when he sees the work Holland has done.

The broader market showed growth during the recent seasonal window. The summer domestic box office total represents a 26.1% increase from 2025. Rentrak forecast the summer domestic box office will end at $4.759 billion.

This figure slightly exceeds the 2013 summer domestic box office total of $4.758 billion. The 2026 summer box office time frame spans 130 days, while the 2013 summer box office time frame spanned 123 days.
