‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’ Box Office Set to Sink ‘Titanic’ From All-Time Top 5

Spider-Man: Brand New Day is on the verge of knocking Titanic out of the all-time global box-office top five.

Over the weekend, Brand New Day racked up another $39 million domestically (and $109 million globally) bringing its totals to $854.9 million domestic ($2.22 billion globally).

That puts Brand New Day just $44 million shy of overtaking James Cameron’s Oscar-winning 1997 hit, something Brand New Day should easily manage in a week or so.

Cameron’s own 2009 smash Avatar still sits atop the all-time Top 5 with an incredible $2.9 billion lifetime gross, including rereleases.

Then comes 2019’s Avengers: Endgame , which, like Brand New Day , features Tom Holland’s Spider-Man, at $2.79 billion. Endgame is set to get a re-release Sept. 25, which will narrow the gap between Endgame and Avatar for the top spot again ( Titanic ‘s own box office tally includes a $350 million re-release in 2012).

In third is Cameron’s 2022 sequel Avatar: The Way of Water with $2.33 billion.

In fourth is the 2025 Chinese animated fantasy adventure Ne Zha 2 with $2.27 billion.

Then there’s Titanic and the still-ascendant Brand New Day , with Star Wars: The Force Awakens , Avengers: Infinity War , Spider-Man: No Way Home , and Zootopia 2 rounding out the Top 10.

Given that Brand New Day is only $50 million behind Ne Zha 2 , the superhero film is very likely to jump from No. 6 on the all-time global Top 10 up to No. 4. In addition, the film is only a hair behind Endgame domestically, meaning it should become the No. 2 domestic movie of all time any moment now.

Previously, when Endgame passed Titanic , Cameron and his Lightstorm production company posted a congratulatory image on social media showing the Avengers “A” logo sinking the Ship of Dreams along with the message, “An iceberg sank the real Titanic. It took the Avengers to sink my Titanic.” Cameron also congratulated Marvel boss Kevin Feige for proving the movie business was “alive and well.”

Similarly, George Lucas famously took out a congratulatory trade ad when Titanic passed Star Wars that showed Star Wars characters on a sinking ship.

Brand New Day was No. 1 at the box office once again this weekend, fending off newcomers Insidious: Out of the Further and the Jason Statham action film Mutiny .
