“Spider-Man: Homecoming” was already guaranteed a win this weekend as the frame’s only new wide release entry, but even Peter Parker wasn’t prepared for these box office numbers.
The Sony-Marvel superhero movie is flying to a $120 million opening, surpassing even the most optimistic industry expectations. The sixth Spider-Man film in just over 15 years netted $50.5 million on Friday from 4,248 locations.
Tom Holland’s first swing as Spider-Man will end Sunday as Sony’s second-highest opening of all time. That makes “Homecoming” also the second-highest opening for a “Spider-Man” movie, falling just short of “Spider-Man 3’s” then-record breaking $151.1 million debut back in 2007. It is now also the fourth movie to launch to over $100 million domestically this year, following “Beauty and the Beast,” “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2,” and “Wonder Woman.”
