Spider-Man: Brand New Day has grossed $854,901,026 in the United States and Canada as of Box Office Mojo's August 23 update. Avengers: Endgame finished its domestic run on $858,373,000. The gap is $3,471,974 — less than a tenth of what the Spider-Man sequel took in a single weekend three days ago.
Barring a collapse with no precedent, Sony's film passes Endgame this week and becomes the second-highest-grossing release in North American history, behind only Star Wars: The Force Awakens on $936,662,225.
The opening record is already settled
The film opened on July 31 to $360,091,572 across 4,487 theatres, an average of $80,252 per screen. That displaces Endgame's $357,115,007 at the top of the all-time domestic opening chart, a record that had stood since April 2019.
One number underneath that is more revealing than the headline. The opening accounts for 42.1% of everything the film has earned domestically so far. Endgame's opening was 41.6% of its final total. Two films with almost identical front-loading is not a coincidence — it is what a saturated event release looks like when almost everyone who intends to see it goes in the first four days.
The fourth weekend held better than the pattern predicts
In the weekend ending August 23, the film took $39,000,000 from 4,006 theatres, a 45% drop and still comfortably first, according to The Numbers' domestic chart. That was against a wide opener, Insidious: Out of the Further, which debuted second on $25,300,000.
A 45% fourth-weekend decline for a film this front-loaded is the sort of hold that turns a record opening into a record run. It is also the number that decides whether the domestic total settles near $880 million or pushes toward $900 million.
Internationally it is not close to the top
Worldwide the film sits at $2,219,901,026, of which $1,365,000,000 came from outside North America — 61.5% of the total. That is a strong split for a Sony release, but it is a long way from the ratios that put Avatar and Titanic where they are. This is a film breaking American records specifically.
For context on the year, it is the only 2026 release past $2 billion. The Odyssey is second on $1,446,194,550 and Toy Story 5 third on $1,127,997,842. The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, the year's biggest game adaptation, sits fifth on $1,012,570,413.
What the record does and does not mean
Nominal grosses reward higher ticket prices, premium-format surcharges and wider theatre counts, which is why a 2026 release can pass a 2019 one without selling more tickets. Box Office Mojo's inflation-adjusted domestic chart still has Gone with the Wind on top and no modern Marvel film near it.
What the run does prove is narrower and more interesting to the studios: a single character can still fill 4,500 North American screens on the last weekend of July and hold most of that audience for a month. Sony has not announced a follow-up date. The number that will decide when it does is the one arriving this week.
