It's a historic day for the domestic box office. Spider-Man: Brand New Day (2026) has officially overtaken Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015) as the highest-grossing film of all time domestically.
The Force Awakens was released on December 18, 2015. The film broke multiple records during its run and went on to gross about $936.66 million by the end. Brand New Day (2026) hit day 47 of its theatrical run with a total domestic revenue of about $936.77 million, officially taking the title. As the film is still making its theatrical run, the revenue gap should slowly widen. This is a fantastic achievement for the post-COVID box office; while slowly healing, the damage from lockdowns, combined with the rise of streaming services, has left its mark on theatrical performance.
