"Spider-Man: Brand New Day" has officially crossed a staggering $2 billion worldwide, becoming only the eighth movie in history to enter Hollywood's ultra-exclusive $2 billion club. Even more impressive? It took the movie just 17 days to get there, making it the second-fastest film ever to reach the milestone behind Avengers: Endgame.
That gives Holland some serious bragging rights.
Neither Tobey Maguire nor Andrew Garfield ever starred in a solo Spider-Man movie that came remotely close to $2 billion. Even Holland's own enormously hyped Spider-Man: No Way Home - which famously brought Maguire and Garfield together on screen - finished its original worldwide run at around $1.9 billion.
But Brand New Day has now gone where no previous Spider-Man movie has gone.
The film has amassed approximately $785.8 million in North America and $1.236 billion internationally, bringing its worldwide total to about $2.022 billion after only three weekends. It also remained No. 1 at the North American box office for a third consecutive weekend.
And Holland's Peter Parker isn't finished embarrassing the competition.
The movie opened to nearly $1 billion worldwide and crossed the $1 billion mark during its first week. Now the question has shifted from whether Brand New Day would become a monster hit to just how many records it can destroy before leaving theaters.
One particularly juicy target is sitting right in front of it: $1 billion in North America alone.
No movie has ever achieved that feat. Star Wars: The Force Awakens remains the domestic champion with roughly $936 million, but Brand New Day is already approaching $800 million with plenty of theatrical life remaining.
Then there's the really outrageous possibility: Could Tom Holland's Spider-Man become Hollywood's first $3 billion movie?
James Cameron's Avatar has long occupied the global throne with roughly $2.9 billion worldwide. Brand New Day still has a considerable distance to travel, but after blowing through $2 billion in less than three weeks, the possibility no longer sounds quite as crazy.
For Holland, the achievement is especially striking considering just how crowded the Spider-Man legacy has become. Maguire defined the character for a generation, Garfield developed his own fiercely loyal following, and No Way Home turned all three Spider-Men into a nostalgia-fueled cinematic event.
Yet when it comes to pure ticket sales, Holland now has something his predecessors never had: a $2 billion solo Spider-Man blockbuster.
Peter Parker may famously struggle to pay the rent.
His latest movie certainly doesn't.
