Spider-Man: Brand New Day has set a new domestic record for preview-screening takings, earning $72 million and surpassing Avengers: Endgame’s $60 million mark. Its early performance suggests a major revival for Marvel Studios and could help make the weekend the highest-grossing in US box-office history.

The film is projected to exceed $100 million on its first Friday and may overtake Endgame’s $357 million domestic opening weekend, while earning at least $850 million overseas in five days. Strong reviews, including 90% from critics and 98% from audiences on Rotten Tomatoes, accompany a broader 2026 box-office recovery, with domestic takings potentially reaching $10 billion for the first time since before the pandemic.
