Spider-Man: Brand New Day Already Broke Avengers: Endgame Box Office Record

The film beat Avengers: Endgame’s preview mark and is projected to join only five movies that have topped $100 million on first Friday with previews.

  • Spider-Man: Brand New Day earned $72 million from early preview screenings, breaking the previous domestic record of $60 million set by Avengers: Endgame in April 2019.
  • This year's domestic box office is on track to reach $10 billion for the first time since before the COVID-19 pandemic, with Brand New Day contributing to the industry's recovery.
  • With a 90% critic score and 98% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes, Brand New Day is on pace to exceed Endgame's $357 million domestic opening weekend and earn at least $850 million overseas.
  • Combining Brand New Day's opening with the third weekend of The Odyssey, this weekend may reach the highest combined domestic gross in box office history, surpassing the previous $402 million record from Avengers: Endgame's opening.
  • Other 2026 successes include Toy Story, which has cleared $1 billion worldwide, alongside Project Hail Mary, Obsession, and Backrooms, signaling broad industry recovery from the pandemic era.
