Several territories saw record‑breaking openings: India posted $31.8 million, the largest Hollywood debut ever in that market; France contributed $26.6 million; Brazil added $23.8 million; and Spain brought in $15.6 million.
Compared with earlier Marvel releases, Brand New Day outperformed Spider‑Man: No Way Home, which opened with $260 million in the U.S. and $600 million worldwide in 2021, and surpassed the $640 million global opening of Avengers: Infinity War.
The new installment is set four years after No Way Home. After Doctor Strange’s spell erases Peter Parker from everyone’s memory, he continues to protect New York as Spider‑Man while living a solitary life. A series of mysterious crimes trigger a transformation that threatens the city and the world.
