Spider-Man: Brand New Day Is Just $13 Million From a Box Office Record
Spider-Man: Brand New Day is closing in on one of the biggest box-office records in movie history. After six consecutive weekends at No. 1, the Tom Holland-led Marvel movie has reached more than $923 million domestically and is now roughly $13 million away from surpassing Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
Spider-Man: Brand New Day Keeps Dominating the Box Office
The latest Spider-Man movie continues to make major waves at the North American box office.
Spider-Man: Brand New Day remained No. 1 for a sixth consecutive weekend, adding roughly $18 million during the traditional Friday-to-Sunday frame and about $23 million over the extended Labor Day holiday period. The movie’s domestic total has now climbed to approximately $923.3 million.
That puts the Marvel blockbuster within striking distance of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, which finished its original domestic run at approximately $936.7 million.
In other words, Brand New Day needs only around $13 million more to move into the top spot on the unadjusted domestic box-office chart.
Tom Holland’s Spider-Man Is Chasing Star Wars History
If Spider-Man: Brand New Day passes The Force Awakens, it would become the highest-grossing movie ever at the U.S. and Canadian box office on an unadjusted dollar basis.
The potential achievement is especially notable because The Force Awakens has held that domestic record since 2015.
Brand New Day has also reached the $900 million milestone at a remarkable pace. According to current box-office reporting, the movie crossed $900 million domestically in approximately 36 days, significantly faster than The Force Awakens, which took about 50 days to reach the same milestone.
The Movie Has Already Broken Major Box Office Records
The domestic record chase is only the latest milestone for Spider-Man: Brand New Day.
The movie opened in North America on July 31, 2026, with approximately $360.1 million. Sony previously described that opening as a record-breaking domestic debut, while current box-office data lists the opening at $360,091,572.
The film has continued to attract audiences well beyond its opening weekend, helping it remain at the top of the domestic box office for six straight weekends.
Its current worldwide total stands at approximately $2.41 billion, including more than $923 million from the domestic market and roughly $1.49 billion internationally.
Why Spider-Man: Brand New Day Is Performing So Well
Several factors have helped the movie maintain its momentum.
First, the film is the latest major chapter in the popular Spider-Man franchise, with Tom Holland returning as Peter Parker. The cast also includes Zendaya, Jacob Batalon, Jon Bernthal and Mark Ruffalo.
The movie is directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, with a screenplay credited to Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers. Sony’s official materials also list Kevin Feige and Amy Pascal among the producers.
The story follows Peter Parker as he lives as Spider-Man in a world that no longer remembers him. According to Sony’s synopsis, the pressure of that life triggers a dangerous transformation while a powerful new threat emerges.
Spider-Man’s Worldwide Box Office Is Also Huge
While the domestic record is receiving the most attention in the U.S., Brand New Day has also become a global box-office powerhouse.
Current figures put the movie’s worldwide gross at approximately $2.408 billion. The domestic market accounts for about 38% of that total, with international markets contributing the majority.
That puts Brand New Day among the biggest theatrical releases ever and makes its current run one of the defining movie stories of 2026.
Can Spider-Man Beat The Force Awakens?
The answer could come very soon.
With the movie sitting at approximately $923 million domestically, the remaining gap to The Force Awakens is relatively small compared with its overall earnings.
Recent box-office performance also suggests that the film still has enough momentum to continue adding millions during its theatrical run. The Numbers reports the movie at more than $923.5 million domestically after its Labor Day performance.
If it maintains even a fraction of its recent pace, the record could fall in the coming days.
However, the final result will depend on the movie’s daily grosses, weekend performance and how long theaters continue allocating screens to the Marvel blockbuster.

What the Record Would Mean for Marvel
Passing The Force Awakens would be another major achievement for Marvel and Sony’s Spider-Man franchise.
It would also underline the continued strength of theatrical moviegoing in 2026. The movie’s performance has helped fuel a particularly strong summer box office, with industry reports pointing to a significant rebound in domestic theatrical revenue.
For Spider-Man fans, though, the most important number is simple: about $13 million separates Peter Parker from the current domestic record.
The Bottom Line
Spider-Man: Brand New Day has already become one of 2026’s biggest theatrical successes.
With more than $923 million domestically, approximately $2.4 billion worldwide, and six consecutive weekends at No. 1, the film is now within striking distance of Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
The next few days could determine whether Tom Holland’s Spider-Man officially becomes the new king of the North American box office.
