Spider-Man: Brand New Day box office receipts have raced beyond $500 million in the U.S. and Canada in seven days, making it the quickest film to reach that domestic milestone, according to Deadline.
The Sony and Marvel release, directed by Destin Daniel Cretton and starring Tom Holland and Zendaya, passed the mark one day faster than 2019’s Avengers: Endgame, Deadline reported on August 6.
How fast did Spider-Man: Brand New Day reach $500 million domestically?
It took seven days. In this reporting, “domestic” means ticket sales in the U.S. and Canada, also described as the North American box office. Deadline estimated the film would finish Thursday with $508.8 million in domestic receipts after taking in about $27 million or more that day.
That running total was an estimate, rather than a final box-office figure.
- Spider-Man: Brand New Day: seven days
- Avengers: Endgame: eight days
- Star Wars: The Force Awakens: 10 days
- Spider-Man: No Way Home: 12 days
The milestone puts Brand New Day among 23 films that have earned more than $500 million in North America, Deadline said. The highest-grossing title on that list remains 2015’s Star Wars: The Force Awakens, which took in $936.6 million domestically.
The seven-day sprint followed a rapid opening stretch. Deadline had put the film’s domestic total at $449 million after five days and reported $42 million in Tuesday sales. It later said the movie collected $32.7 million on Wednesday, the second-largest Wednesday gross for a film outside its opening day, behind the $38 million taken by The Force Awakens on December 23, 2015.
Those daily results came after Deadline reported that the film reached $400 million domestically in four days and opened to $360 million in the U.S. and Canada. The outlet described both as domestic records.
Worldwide figures are separate from the domestic record. Deadline also reported a global total of $1.1 billion as of August 5, but that tally includes international ticket sales and does not factor into the seven-day North American milestone.
