Spider-Man: Brand New Day opened to an estimated $355 million in U.S. and Canadian ticket sales, the largest opening weekend of 2026 and the second-highest opening in Hollywood history, Bloomberg reported. The $355 million debut more than doubled this year’s previous biggest opening, April’s The Super Mario Galaxy Movie. With Brand New Day joining Holland's earlier blockbusters, Tom Holland has become the first actor whose films occupy the four largest opening weekends in box-office history, an achievement noted in coverage of the film’s debut. The film continues Holland’s run as the lead in the year’s top-grossing releases and cements this Spider-Man installment as a major commercial event on par with Hollywood’s biggest openings.
