Spider-Man: Brand New Day continued its extraordinary run at the domestic box office with an estimated $145 million in its second weekend, delivering one of the strongest sophomore performances in box office history. The Marvel-Sony blockbuster fell 60% from its record-setting opening but still remained comfortably ahead of every other film in theaters, taking its 10-day domestic total to approximately $655.09 million.
The second-weekend performance ranks as the third-biggest second weekend in domestic box office history, behind only Star Wars: The Force Awakens, which earned approximately $149 million in its second weekend in 2015, and Avengers: Endgame, which collected $147 million in 2019. Only eight films in box office history have crossed the $100 million mark in their second weekend, placing Brand New Day in an extremely select group.
The film’s domestic performance is being matched by an equally remarkable global run. After opening to approximately $932 million worldwide, Brand New Day has now reached $1.67 billion globally. The film crossed the $1 billion mark in just six days and is now moving toward the $2 billion milestone. Its pace has also raised the possibility of a much bigger run, with the film potentially entering the conversation around the all-time domestic and worldwide records if its exceptional momentum continues.
The current domestic record belongs to Star Wars: The Force Awakens, which finished with $936.6 million, while Avatar remains the highest-grossing film worldwide with approximately $2.9 billion, followed by Avengers: Endgame at around $2.7 billion, with both totals benefiting from subsequent theatrical re-releases.
In second place, Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey continued its strong theatrical run with $31.5 million in its fourth weekend, a 38% decline from the previous frame. The epic has now collected approximately $461.17 million domestically and $1.1 billion worldwide, making it Nolan’s highest-grossing film to date. It has moved past The Dark Knight Rises, which finished with approximately $1.08 billion, and The Dark Knight, which grossed about $1.008 billion worldwide.
The Odyssey is also setting new benchmarks in premium exhibition. IMAX has contributed approximately $289 million to the film’s worldwide haul, allowing it to surpass Avatar‘s reported $271 million IMAX total and become the format’s highest-grossing release. The film has yet to open in China, one of the world’s largest theatrical markets, giving it another major territory still ahead.
The weekend was considerably less encouraging for the three new wide releases. Universal’s romantic comedy One Night Only opened in third place with $5.7 million from 3,012 theaters, averaging $1,892 per location. Starring Callum Turner and Monica Barbaro, the R-rated film received a B+ CinemaScore, with women accounting for 70% of its opening audience and more than half of ticket buyers falling between the ages of 18 and 34.
The $25 million production has some reason for optimism despite its modest debut. Director Will Gluck’s previous film, Anyone But You, also opened softly at around $6 million before developing into a major sleeper hit, eventually reaching approximately $88 million domestically and $220 million worldwide. Whether One Night Only can achieve similar staying power will depend on its weekday holds and audience response.
Super Troopers 3 opened in fourth place with $4 million from 2,760 theaters. The result represents the weakest domestic opening in the comedy franchise. The original Super Troopers opened to $6.2 million in 2001, while Super Troopers 2 debuted with $15.1 million in 2018. The latest installment received a B- CinemaScore and currently holds a 48% score on Rotten Tomatoes.
Eli Roth’s horror film Ice Cream Man had an even softer start, opening to approximately $2.01 million from 1,682 theaters. The film finished eighth, behind several established holdovers. Roth independently raised the reported $5.5 million needed to finance the project and distributed the movie through his independent company, The Horror Section.
Among the returning films, Toy Story 5 remained in fifth place with $3.9 million, down 42% from the previous weekend. Its domestic total has now reached approximately $470.38 million. Minions & Monsters followed with $3.5 million, also down 42%, bringing its cumulative domestic gross to approximately $176.35 million. Moana added $2.8 million in seventh place, taking its domestic total to approximately $121.44 million.
Further down the chart, The Invite collected $717,568 from 342 theaters for a 44% weekend decline, bringing its domestic total to approximately $24.28 million. Meanwhile, Obsession added another $200,000 from 186 theaters. Despite a 60% drop, the film’s long theatrical run has pushed its domestic total to approximately $263.32 million after 87 days.
The limited-release market produced some of the weekend’s strongest per-screen numbers. A24’s Tony opened on just six screens but collected approximately $348,995, resulting in an impressive $58,166 per-theater average. The Anthony Bourdain biopic, directed by Matt Johnson and starring Dominic Sessa, is scheduled for a wider rollout before expanding nationwide on August 21.
Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma also posted a strong limited opening, earning approximately $251,500 from five theaters for a $50,300 per-screen average. The latest film from I Saw the TV Glow director Jane Schoenbrun attracted a predominantly young audience, with nearly 80% of viewers under 35. Mubi plans to expand the film to 50 additional theaters before its nationwide release on August 21.
With Spider-Man: Brand New Day and The Odyssey dominating the upper end of the chart, the weekend highlighted a sharp divide in the theatrical market. The two major blockbusters continued to generate substantial audiences, while the new wide releases struggled to make an impact. At the same time, smaller films such as Tony and Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma demonstrated that limited releases can still generate strong theater-level returns when audience interest and critical response align.
The next weekend brings several new wide releases, including Warner Bros.’ sci-fi mystery The End of Oak Street, starring Anne Hathaway and Ewan McGregor; Paramount’s PAW Patrol: The Dino Movie; and Black Bear’s The Rivals of Amziah King, starring Matthew McConaughey. None is currently expected to seriously challenge Spider-Man: Brand New Day, leaving the Marvel blockbuster in a strong position to remain at the top of the domestic box office for another weekend.
