"Spider-Man: Brand New Day" refused to slow down this weekend, adding [another $145 million domestically](https://variety.com/2026/film/box-office/spiderman-brand-new-day-box-office-near-record-second-weekend-1236830807/?ref=zilck.com) and becoming the fastest film ever to reach a $655 million US total in just 10 days. Meanwhile, Christopher Nolan's "The Odyssey" quietly crossed its own historic milestone, officially becoming his highest-grossing film ever. Here's everything you need to know about this weekend's numbers.

## Spider-Man Keeps Rewriting the Record Books

Tom Holland's web-slinger pulled off one of the biggest second weekends in box office history, grossing $145 million domestically, a mere [60% drop from its record-setting opening](https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/spider-man-brand-new-day-box-office-second-weekend-1236669418/?ref=zilck.com). That figure ranks as the third-best second weekend ever for any film, trailing only "Avengers: Endgame" and "Avengers: Infinity War," and makes "Brand New Day" just the eighth movie ever to top $100 million in its sophomore frame. [Deadline](https://deadline.com/2026/08/box-office-spider-man-brand-new-day-one-night-only-1237028481/?ref=zilck.com) notes the film now owns the highest 10-day domestic gross in box office history, ahead of "Endgame's" $621.2 million pace from 2019.

Globally, the numbers are even more staggering. "Brand New Day" has already crossed $1.67 billion worldwide after just 10 days in theaters, per [Entertainment Weekly](https://ew.com/spider-man-brand-new-day-the-odyssey-earn-usd1-billion-at-global-box-office-12037192?ref=zilck.com), making it the 12th highest-grossing movie of all time according to Box Office Mojo. It reached the billion-dollar club faster than any film in history, taking just 12 days compared to "The Odyssey's" four weeks. AP film writer Jake Coyle summed it up plainly: "Domestically, no movie has racked up a higher total faster".

## The Odyssey Becomes Nolan's Biggest Movie Ever

While Spider-Man dominated headlines, "The Odyssey" quietly made history of its own. The Matt Damon-led epic added $31.5 million domestically and $110.7 million globally over the weekend, pushing its [worldwide total to $1.1 billion](https://variety.com/2026/film/box-office/the-odyssey-christopher-nolan-biggest-movie-imax-record-1236830867/?ref=zilck.com). That officially makes it Christopher Nolan's highest-grossing film of all time, surpassing 2012's "The Dark Knight Rises" ($1.08 billion) and 2008's "The Dark Knight" ($1.008 billion).

[Variety](https://variety.com/2026/film/box-office/the-odyssey-christopher-nolan-biggest-movie-imax-record-1236830867/?ref=zilck.com) also reports "The Odyssey" has become IMAX's biggest release of all time, generating $289 million through the premium format alone, and it now stands as the second-highest-grossing R-rated release in history behind "Deadpool & Wolverine". Domestically, its fourth-weekend drop of just 38% is a remarkably soft decline for a movie four weekends into release, a testament to the staying power of Nolan's Homeric adaptation even while sharing IMAX screens with Spider-Man.

## A Historic Weekend for Theaters

Analysts are calling this one of the strongest stretches in box office history. [Rentrak](https://abcnews.com/Business/wireStory/spider-man-brand-new-day-record-pace-odyssey-135502190?ref=zilck.com) reported the weekend's overall domestic total at $205 million across all films, the third-best weekend of the year, following last weekend's all-time record of $437.1 million. Comscore's top 10 shows just how lopsided the competition remains: Spider-Man and The Odyssey combined for over $176 million, dwarfing every other release in wide theaters, including newcomers "One Night Only" ($5.7 million) and "Super Troopers 3" ($4 million).

## What It Means Going Forward

With both films now certified billion-dollar global hits, the summer of 2026 will likely be remembered as one of the biggest theatrical seasons in modern history. Box office analyst [Paul Dergarabedian's earlier comment](https://www.reuters.com/lifestyle/spider-man-brand-new-day-opens-355-million-us-canada-2026-08-02/?ref=zilck.com) about the pair creating "the all-time biggest domestic weekend" now looks like an understatement. Expect "Brand New Day" to keep chasing "Endgame's" all-time global record, while "The Odyssey" cements itself as a major awards-season contender heading into fall. For US moviegoers, this is shaping up to be a summer worth remembering at the multiplex.
