Overview
- On Sept. 16 the film reached $936.773 million in U.S. and Canadian ticket sales after 47 days in theaters, surpassing Star Wars: The Force Awakens for the domestic record.
- Globally the movie sits at about $2.45 billion, placing it third on the all-time worldwide list behind Avatar and Avengers: Endgame.
- The run was powered by a record $360 million opening, heavy presales, wide allocation to premium formats such as IMAX, and unusually strong weekday holds that boosted unadjusted grosses.
- Studios and peers publicly celebrated the milestone — Sony thanked fans and Lucasfilm congratulated the team — but Sony has not formally announced a fifth Spider-Man film.
- Analysts caution the record uses unadjusted dollars so higher ticket prices and premium formats inflate totals, and Disney’s planned re-release of Endgame could add to that film’s tally and change the short-term rankings.
