## Summary

Marvel Studios' Spider-Man: Brand New Day has set a new domestic box office record, earning $168 million on its opening day and surpassing Avengers: Endgame's previous mark of $157 million. The film, starring Tom Holland and directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, is now expected to challenge Endgame's all-time opening weekend record as well, underlining the continued strength of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and Spider-Man's box office pull.

Variety reported the figure was reached on the film's 31 July premiere date, an $11 million improvement on Endgame's day-one haul. Preview screenings alone brought in $72 million, also beating Endgame's $60 million preview total, while Sony expects the film to reach between $325 million and $358 million by the end of its opening weekend, potentially eclipsing Endgame's $357 million weekend record. The film arrives amid a strong year for blockbusters, following billion-dollar runs for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, the Michael Jackson biopic Michael and Toy Story 5, and a robust opening for Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey.
