Spider-Man: Brand New Day Leads 6th Weekend With $22 Million as Domestic Total Tops $900 Million

Q: Will Spider-Man's historic box office run finally dethrone Star Wars as the highest-grossing domestic film of all time?

Yes — barring an unexpected late collapse, *Spider-Man: Brand New Day* is poised to overtake *Star Wars: The Force Awakens* as the highest-grossing domestic release of all time. The key reason is simple math. *Brand New Day* has already crossed $900 million in North America, while *The Force Awakens* stands at about $936.7 million. Most weekend projections for Labor Day put *Spider-Man* between roughly $22 million and $24.5 million over four days, which would leave it either just short of the record or within immediate striking distance. The supporting evidence is strong. The film is holding No. 1 for a sixth straight weekend, a rare feat, and trade coverage says it is “expected to soon surpass” the *Star Wars* mark. One forecast cited in the search material would push it near $924 million by Monday, while others indicate it could continue adding enough weekday business to clear $936.7 million shortly after the holiday. Its momentum also remains unusually durable for a film this deep into release. It has already reached more than $2.33 billion worldwide and become only the second movie ever to top $900 million domestically. With no major Labor Day breakout challenging it and the frame otherwise quiet, the path to the record looks clear. The only real uncertainty is timing. It may not definitively pass *The Force Awakens* by the end of the four-day weekend, but all available projections indicate it is likely to do so very soon after.

$22 million over the four-day Labor Day frame will keep Sony and Marvel’s Spider-Man: Brand New Day at No. 1 for a sixth straight weekend.
The hold comes in a weak holiday market, with new releases failing to break out: By Any Means is tracking for about $7 million and A24’s Onslaught for roughly $2 million.
Brand New Day has already crossed $900 million domestically, becoming only the second film ever to reach that mark behind 2015’s Star Wars: The Force Awakens at $936 million.
Its global haul has passed $2.33 billion, lifting it to No. 3 all-time after overtaking Avatar: The Way of Water; Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey is set for second place with $16.4 million.
