moviesAug 5, 2026781,729

Sony and Marvel’s Spider-Man: Brand New Day, starring Tom Holland, surpassed $1 billion worldwide after six days of release, making it the second-fastest film ever to reach that milestone. Variety reported that only 2019’s Avengers Endgame was faster, reaching about $1.2 billion in its opening weekend. The film’s box office surge coincides with public praise from reviewers calling it a triumphant, emotional entry for the character and with the Russo Brothers sharing new artwork celebrating Brand New Day’s record domestic opening weekend that passed Endgame. Actor Jacob Batalon commented on a handshake scene in the film, calling it a “cool little nod” open to interpretation. Coverage also noted the director linked a promise in the movie back to a five-year-old MCU mystery, signaling potential future crossover developments. The movie’s rapid haul reinforces Sony and Marvel’s current theatrical momentum and sets up further studio promotion and sequel or crossover expectations.

Destin Daniel Cretton says Jackie Chan's stunt team did not work on 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' • That was a false story • The actor did visit the set • Stunts were handled by Peng Zhang, who worked on 'Shang-Chi'

I wish more rumors were squashed in the instance I hear about them

Edward R. Morris Jr1

Chan used to do all his own stunts, but he doesn't any more because he said he's just plain broken his arms too many times. And will in fact roll up his sleeves to show people

Destin Daniel Cretton says that he asked for Jean Grey to be in ‘SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY’. “It was not a mandate, it was a request. We asked.” (Source: www.thewrap.com/creative-con...)

I know that Spider-Man is an extremely popular character but find this quite baffling. Why *this* Spider-Man movie?

Finally saw Brand New Day. I don't know if that's the best Spider-Man movie, but it's definitely the best Spider-Man in a movie.

About halfway through I was thinking "Man, this really is similar to a storyline from the old Marvel Team-Up books." At which point I realized "Wait... there's like four other heroes in here, this literally is the Marvel Team-Up movie." Don't know if that was on purpose but if it was, bravo.

Finally got around to writing a few words about Spider-Man: Brand New Day, after having watched last Friday. Not a lot here, spoiler-free. Not my favorite, but very, very good and easy to like anyway! Just wanted more Peter and Ned time, really. More brief words on Letterboxd.

Saw Spider-Man last night with the boys. I liked it more than they did -- I'm a sucker for the particular tone of these movies. The Punisher, though, was annoying as always, because Jon Bernthal is annoying.

I don't necessarily dislike Bernthal, but he's always so obviously Jon Bernthal in every role he plays, if that makes any sense. 🤷

Perhaps watching such a movie is meant to be a Punishing experience

QUOTE: We watched Fellowship and Two Towers back to back, then immediately left the house for a midnight showing of Return of The King. The collective experience of everyone in the theater crying at “my friends, you bow to no one” is a thing I’ll remember forever.

Definitely says something about how far the surveillance state has come since THE DARK KNIGHT that Spider-Man builds Batman’s “no one man should have this power” system and it barely even merits a mention in BRAND NEW DAY.

Though I do appreciate the fantastical indulgence of it being a cop who has a problem with it.

Chris “Chance!” Brown5

Even Ned’s system (and app?) of tracking spider-man across the city using social media and CCTV and pushing to his wearable ect, is kinda handwaved away

Anguirus3

I think it’s both symbolically important and a bit of a screenwriters’ crutch (not gonna rewrite my whole thread on it) but yeah wow Culture has Shifted on private and public tech surveillance. His AI assistant replacing Ned is also an interesting beat.

“Brand New Day” shares its soul with a '70s Spider-Man movie no one remembers A low-budget spin-off of a CBS series, “Spider-Man Strikes Back” was the first to dig into Peter Parker's dual identity. www.avclub.com/spider-man-b...

Update: Many Twins did not watch “The Odyessey” the afternoon of the trade deadline. The theatre didn’t have IMAX, so they chose to watch “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” instead. A few players went to a different theatre to watch “The Odyssey,” on a 70mm screen.

Can I please get a breakdown on which players went where

Great work but it’s important you follow up and find out which ones watched The Odyssey

This really speaks to why I enjoyed Sink's take on the character even though I'm sick of everything being a tease for some other movie, it's nice to have a Jean who doesn't have to be possessed to have quirks or flaws

I had some thoughts after seeing #Spider-Man #BrandNewDay, so I wrote them up for #ReelRank News: blog.reelrank.net/i-positively... I won't spoil what I thought of the film by telling you how many points out of 10.0 its racking lacked (most of them), but I will tell you I had feelings! #FilmSky 📽️
