According to The Hollywood Reporter, Spider-Man: Brand New Day has officially become the highest-grossing film of all time at the North American box office, surpassing the record held by Star Wars: The Force Awakens for 10 years.
Released on July 31, Spider-Man: Brand New Day has consistently shattered box office records. The film reached $360 million in its opening week in North America, subsequently hitting the $700 million, $800 million, and $900 million milestones at the fastest pace in the history of this market.
According to Box Office Mojo, Spider-Man: Brand New Day has currently reached $936,773,134 in the domestic market, $1.516 billion from international markets, and a total global gross of $2.453 billion.
The film had a record-breaking debut with $360 million in North America and $932 million globally in its opening week. After 6 days, its global revenue surpassed $1 billion. After 3 weeks, the film reached $2 billion worldwide, becoming the second-fastest film to hit this milestone after Avengers: Endgame.

On the global charts, Spider-Man: Brand New Day has reached $2.45 billion. The film ranks third on the list of the highest-grossing films of all time, behind Avatar and Avengers: Endgame. Spider-Man: Brand New Day marks the fourth time Tom Holland has taken on the role of Peter Parker in a standalone Spider-Man film.
The film is directed by Destin Daniel Cretton. The plot follows the events of Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021), where the entire world has forgotten Peter Parker. A mysterious enemy emerges who knows Spider-Man's true identity, pushing him into a new confrontation.
According to Variety, the film's appeal stems from audience curiosity regarding the consequences of Peter Parker's choices in Spider-Man: No Way Home. Sadie Sink is also a major draw for viewers, as her role was kept under wraps prior to the film's release. In the film, the actress plays Jean Grey, a mutant with telepathic abilities.
