Spider-Man: Brand New Day is expected to dominate the US box office again, with a projected $135m-$140m second weekend that would rank as the third-largest domestic second weekend ever. The result would reinforce the film’s exceptional commercial performance and help make this the fifth US weekend in 2026 to exceed $100m at the top of the chart.
The film is forecast to reach about $650.8m domestically after ten days, roughly 5% ahead of Avengers: Endgame at the same stage. Universal’s The Odyssey is projected to take $28.5m in second place, while Will Gluck’s One Night Only opened with $1.35m in previews and is targeting a $6m weekend; Toy Story 5 and Super Troopers 3 are expected to complete the top five.
In short
- Spider-Man targets a record-breaking $135m-$140m second weekend.
- Its ten-day domestic total could reach $650.8m.
- One Night Only earned $1.35m in previews.
Explained simply
Box-office charts track how much films earn from cinema ticket sales, with preview screenings often counted towards a film’s opening weekend. A film’s second weekend can show whether it is continuing to draw audiences after its initial release.
Spider-Man: Brand New Day is part of Marvel’s Spider-Man series, while The Odyssey and One Night Only are competing new releases. Their takings help studios and cinemas gauge audience demand and can shape how long films remain in cinemas and how they are promoted.
Domestic box-office figures refer to the United States and Canada, rather than worldwide earnings. Comparisons with earlier films such as Avengers: Endgame offer a measure of how quickly a release is selling tickets, though different release dates and market conditions can affect those comparisons.
