Spider-Man: Brand New Day is still on top. Sony and Marvel’s blockbuster claimed the No. 1 spot at the domestic box office for a fifth consecutive weekend, adding $22.2 million and pushing its North American total to $891.5 million after 31 days in theaters.
Worldwide, the film has now reached $2.332 billion.
That puts Brand New Day at No. 2 on the all-time domestic box office chart, having passed Avengers: Endgame at $858.4 million. The only film still ahead is Star Wars: The Force Awakens, which finished with $936.7 million.
The five-week winning streak is also increasingly rare. In the post-pandemic era, only Avatar: The Way of Water has spent more consecutive weekends at No. 1, holding the top spot for seven straight frames from December 2022 through January 2023.
The overall weekend came in at an even $100 million, up 23% from the comparable weekend in 2025.
Still, Spidey’s grip on No. 1 is beginning to loosen. Its lead over second place was just $6.7 million, its narrowest margin yet, and another decline next weekend could finally knock the film from the top spot.
That challenger may not even be a new release.
Universal’s The Odyssey continued its extraordinary late-run performance, finishing third with $14.3 million and dropping only 27%.
After 45 days, Christopher Nolan’s epic has earned $563.8 million domestically and $1.553 billion worldwide, making it the filmmaker’s highest-grossing movie both in North America and globally.
Its staying power has been helped considerably by 70mm IMAX screenings. According to Screendollars, the 41 locations worldwide capable of presenting the film in the format have generated $56 million in ticket sales, with many theaters extending those runs into mid-September.
That continued demand could give The Odyssey a legitimate shot at returning to No. 1 next weekend, eight weeks after opening.
The weekend’s biggest new release, however, was Coyote vs. Acme.
Ketchup Entertainment’s long-delayed live-action/animation hybrid opened in second place with $15.5 million. The film’s arrival in theaters marks the end of one of Hollywood’s strangest recent release sagas.
Warner Bros. completed Coyote vs. Acme in 2022, then shelved it the following year and reportedly considered a roughly $30 million tax write-down. After widespread criticism and reported interest from other studios, Warner eventually sold worldwide rights to Ketchup Entertainment for approximately $50 million.

Directed by Dave Green and written by Samy Burch from a story credited to Burch, James Gunn and Jeremy Slater, the film stars Will Forte as an unsuccessful attorney who agrees to represent Wile E. Coyote in a lawsuit against the Acme Corporation.
John Cena plays Acme’s attorney and Forte’s former boss, with Lana Condor, Tone Bell, P.J. Byrne, Martha Kelly and Luis Guzmán also appearing.
The film has received an enthusiastic reception, earning a 95% Rotten Tomatoes critics score and 94% audience score, according to Screendollars.
Despite that response, its $15.5 million opening leaves a difficult financial road ahead against a reported $70 million production budget.
Sony also occupied fourth place with Insidious: The Red Door, which earned $10.1 million in its second weekend.
The sixth installment in the horror franchise has now grossed $43.6 million domestically and $110.2 million worldwide against an $18 million production budget. While it is trailing Insidious: The Red Door at the same release point, its economics continue to demonstrate why the franchise remains so valuable to Sony and Blumhouse.
Rounding out the top five was Ridley Scott’s The Dog Stars, which struggled in its debut.
The Disney release opened to $8 million domestically and $19.3 million worldwide.
Adapted from Peter Heller’s novel, the post-apocalyptic thriller stars Jacob Elordi, Josh Brolin, Margaret Qualley, Guy Pearce, Allison Janney and Benedict Wong.
The film carries an estimated $110 million production budget and entered theaters with a 41% Rotten Tomatoes critics score and a stronger 70% audience score.
Its opening makes profitability a serious challenge, particularly given the late-August release corridor and limited initial awareness cited by Screendollars.
For now, though, the story of the summer remains unchanged.
Five weekends in, Spider-Man: Brand New Day is still No. 1 — and now just $45.2 million away from The Force Awakens and the all-time domestic box office crown.
