Spider-Man might just be one superhero, but he is bigger than all of The Avengers. That is because he spun his web around audiences in 4487 movie theaters this weekend and beat out The Avengers: Endgame for the highest-earning domestic opening weekend in United States cinematic history.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the movie sold $360 million worth of tickets, beating out 2019’s Endgame by $2.9 million.
That is not the only record Spidey broke this weekend. On Friday, it made $169,300,000. That is the largest amount grossed on an opening day and on a single day. And that is coming off of the record-breaking $72 million it made in previews on Thursday.
How many more records will Brand New Day make? We will just have to wait to find out.
And hopefully, we will not have to wait too long to find out that Tom Holland and Zendaya will be working together in another Spider-Man feature.
Oh, The Hollands had the two top movies in North America this weekend- The Odyssey made $51 million. They are Hollywood’s top couple!
Spider-Man: Brand New Day is finally out in theaters. Jimmy Fallon and The Tonight Show found a way to celebrate, and he got 51 other people to celebrate with him.
How did they do it? They dressed up as Spider-Man, went to Times Square, and pointed at each other.
Making it the Most Spider-Mans Pointing at Each Other in Times Square.
Can you believe 51 people did that same exact thing beforehand? They did, and that is why you can’t believe it.
From 1993 to 1997, Dean Cain played Clark Kent in Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman. Superman, as we know, can fly. In other words, he is not afraid of heights.
Now, almost 30 years after the series ended, the actor made a confession. He wrote, “I don’t like heights, but the view from atop the Ferris Wheel at the Great American State Fair is awesome!!!”
I don’t know what is sadder about that social media post: him admitting he is a pussy about high places, or how few people showed up at the pussy grabber’s attempt to make America’s 250th birthday about himself and not the country he claims to love.
The first trailer is out for Spider-Man: Brand New Day, and it looks more like part of the DC Universe than the Marvel one. As in, it seems very dark and broody. But then again, I have never seen any of the Mr. & Mrs. Tom Holland incarnation of the franchise about Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson. So maybe it is always that way.
However, there was one moment that really stuck out to me. That was when Parker is sitting next to a washer that is washing his Spider-Man suit. Who knew Superheroes could wash their costumes? And now I am left pondering, does that mean they stink after a long day of saving lives and fighting the bad guys? Do they fade over time? Do they shrink? And so on…
Because of that, this film has caught me in its web. Now, I want to see what else they can do that we do in our humdrum lives. So who will be swinging into movie theaters with me on July 31st?
Zendaya and Tom Holland have been able to maintain their relationship as private, even though they began it in front of the public. The two actors met when they played lovers in 2017’s Spider-Man: Homecoming.
They took their on-screen chemistry off-camera and started dating. In December 2004, they got engaged. And ever since then, we have been waiting for the wedding.
It sounds like we missed it. When Access Hollywood asked her long-time stylist, Law Roach, on the red carpet of the Actors’ Awards if he could tease anything about their wedding, he told them, “The wedding already happened. You missed it.”
Then she asked if it was true, and he said, “Very true,” and walked away!
And now their reps have shut their phones off because they have been ringing off the hook trying to confirm it and begging for the first wedding photo of Mr. & Mrs. Holland!
The reporter’s reaction was perfect. She was just expecting that he could not tell her anything. But, instead, she got the scoop of the night. So the shock in her voice was the correct reaction! The same reaction everyone in her newsroom had when she told them about the exclusive she got.
