Spider-Man: Brand New Day has officially surpassed Avengers: Endgame at the North American box office, giving Marvel a new domestic box office champion.
The Tom Holland-led superhero movie has reportedly earned about $858.4 million domestically, edging past Avengers: Endgame, which previously held the Marvel record with approximately $858.37 million.
The milestone adds another major achievement to an already impressive theatrical run for Spider-Man: Brand New Day.
Spider-Man: Brand New Day Breaks Marvel Record
Spider-Man: Brand New Day opened with a reported $360 million domestically. That figure narrowly surpassed Avengers: Endgame’s $357.1 million opening weekend.
The movie has continued to attract audiences weeks after its debut. Its strong domestic performance has now pushed Spider-Man ahead of Marvel’s biggest ensemble of heroes.
The achievement also gives Tom Holland’s Spider-Man a new place in Marvel history.
Rather than relying on a massive Avengers lineup, the film has driven its box office success largely through the popularity of Spider-Man and its returning stars.
The Movie Crosses $2 Billion Worldwide
The film’s success extends well beyond North America.
Spider-Man: Brand New Day has reportedly crossed $2 billion worldwide in just 17 days. That makes it the second-fastest movie to reach the milestone, behind Avengers: Endgame.
China has contributed more than $210 million to the film’s international total. The movie has also performed strongly in India.
According to reported box office figures, Spider-Man: Brand New Day has become the highest-grossing Hollywood release ever in India.
Its global performance has also reportedly made it the highest-grossing Spider-Man movie to date.
Tom Holland and Zendaya Help Drive the Success
Several factors appear to have helped Spider-Man: Brand New Day connect with audiences.
Tom Holland remains one of the biggest draws in the franchise. Zendaya also returns, giving fans another familiar face from the previous Spider-Man movies.
Strong word of mouth has further helped the movie maintain its momentum.
The film also takes a more street-level approach to its superhero story. That shift has given audiences a different experience while keeping Spider-Man at the center of the action.
The movie’s success represents an important moment for Marvel after the studio experienced a difficult period following Avengers: Endgame.
Spider-Man Takes Marvel’s Domestic Crown
For years, Avengers: Endgame represented the peak of Marvel’s domestic box office success. The 2019 blockbuster brought together some of the studio’s biggest heroes and became a defining moment for the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Now, Spider-Man has taken that crown.
The achievement highlights the enduring popularity of the character and the strength of Holland’s version of Peter Parker.
With Spider-Man: Brand New Day still playing in theaters, its final domestic and worldwide totals could climb even higher.
For Marvel, the movie’s performance offers another reason for optimism as the studio looks toward the next phase of its cinematic universe.
