Spider-Man: Brand New Day teaser trailer StillsImages via Sony Pictures Releasing
It’s going to be a massive month for Tom Holland, with The Odyssey lined up for release on July 17, followed by the global debut of Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Potentially the start of a new trilogy, Holland’s fourth solo Spider-Man movie is the first in the series to be directed by Destin Daniel Cretton. The movie comes at a pivotal moment in time for the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and has inadvertently been charged with the responsibility of reviving the once-glorious franchise during an extended period of disappointment. The last several MCU movies have underperformed at the box office, but Spider-Man remains an outlier. Even though Sony distributes the Spidey films and not Disney, the character has the global appeal that pushed his previous solo outing to record numbers. Early box-office projections are looking incredibly promising for Spider-Man: Brand New Day as well.
Released in 2021, Spider-Man: No Way Home grossed a massive $260 million in its domestic opening weekend, eventually generating more than $810 million in North America and more than $1.9 billion worldwide. The only reason it didn’t pass the $2 billion mark was that the movie didn’t secure a release in China. Spider-Man: No Way Home remains the highest-grossing solo Spidey movie, and Spider-Man: Brand New Day likely won’t be as massive. It will, however, outgross Holland’s first two solo franchise entries and set a new box-office opening record for 2026.

Here’s How Much ‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’ Is Projected to Gross In Its Box-Office Debut
Spider-Man: Homecoming generated $117 million in its opening weekend, and ended its run with around $880 million worldwide in 2017. Released in 2019, Spider-Man: Far From Home grossed $185 million in its extended six-day debut, and ended its run with $1.1 billion globally. The fourth movie is projected to gross between $180 million and $190 million in its three-day domestic debut — the year’s biggest — but expect these figures to fluctuate. Remember, Spider-Man: Brand New Day won’t have IMAX screens heading into its debut, as Holland’s other movie, The Odyssey, has them booked out for three weeks. But the film is virtually guaranteed to hit the $1 billion mark worldwide, making it the first MCU movie since Deadpool & Wolverine to do so. Also featuring Zendaya, Sadie Sink, Jon Bernthal, and Mark Ruffalo, the movie will be released on July 31. Stay tuned to Collider for more updates.
