‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’ Is Officially Sets IMAX Release!!

2026 has been the year of Tom Holland so far, after starring in a leading role in The Odyssey opposite Matt Damon before reprising his role as Peter Parker in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. The Odyssey is quickly closing in on $1 billion at the box office, which would make it only the second Christopher Nolan-directed film to reach this milestone globally — the first was The Dark Knight Rises. The Odyssey was shaping up to be the biggest box office hit of the year so far, until the arrival of Spider-Man: Brand New Day shattered records. The fourth solo MCU Spider-Man film collected over $900 million at the global box office during its opening weekend, including $355 million from domestic earnings, which gives it the second-biggest opening of all time, only $2 million behind Avengers: Endgame.

What makes this behemoth opening for Spider-Man: Brand New Day even more impressive is that it is not playing in IMAX. Christopher Nolan’s Odyssey has held IMAX exclusivity over all large-screen format screens for three weeks now, but the demand for Spider-Man: Brand New Day has forced IMAX to go back on this. News broke this morning that Spider-Man: Brand New Day will officially begin playing on IMAX screens this Friday, on August 7. Tickets for Spider-Man 4 in IMAX will go on sale tomorrow, on August 4. After falling just short of $1 billion during its first few days in theaters, it’s safe to assume that the film will reach 10 figures before this weekend, especially after introducing IMAX into the mix. We could be in the early days of witnessing one of the most historic box office runs of all time.
