Spider-Man: Brand New Day earns $927M in global opening weekend

Spider-Man: Brand New Day generated $927 million in global ticket sales, marking the second-biggest opening weekend ever. This figure surpasses the estimated $225 million production budget. The film also achieved $335 million in North American box office revenue, the second-best record in that region. The success is crucial for Disney ahead of the December release of Avengers: Doomsday, as Marvel's recent films have underperformed. This performance is significant for investors looking at Disney's (DIS) recovery in the film sector after recent struggles.
