- Spider-Man: Brand New Day crossed $2 billion worldwide in 17 days, the second-fastest ever after Avengers: Endgame's 11 days and only the eighth film to reach the benchmark
- Brand New Day posted $188.7M globally in its third weekend, including $70M domestic — second-best third frame ever behind Star Wars: The Force Awakens' $90.2M — and now stands at $785.8M domestic (4th highest in U.S./Canada history) and $1.236B abroad
- The Odyssey debuted in China with $36.6M including previews, with Imax driving roughly 80% of ticket sales from 40% of showtimes and scoring a 9.7 Maoyan rating — the joint-highest for an MPA film ever in the market
- Warner Bros/Bad Robot's The End of Oak Street opened to $47M worldwide ($21M domestic, $26M overseas across 74 markets) for an $80M–$92M creature feature starring Anne Hathaway
- Paramount/Spin Master's Paw Patrol: The Dino Movie posted $36M WW in its first domestic frame ($20.5M domestic, $15.5M overseas), with Mexico, Brazil and Taiwan among new openings
- Spider-Man: Brand New Day is now Sony Pictures' highest-grossing release ever in 36 international markets including India, Italy, Spain, the Philippines, Turkey and the UAE
Why it matters: Sony has a genuine franchise cornerstone — Brand New Day is now its all-time leader across 36 markets and the fastest non-Avengers film to $2B, giving the studio leverage well beyond the MCU's Marvel Studios pipeline. The Odyssey's $36.6M China debut with Imax at 80% sell-through signals Nolan's largest-format appeal is translating to new territories, while End of Oak Street's modest $47M global start against an $80M+ budget shows original Warner creature features still face uphill theatrical economics.
