‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’ Builds Buzz: Here’s What Tom Holland’s Last Three Spidey Films Earned at the Box-Office
“Spider-Man: Brand New Day” has clearly become the highlight of the week, as the makers unveiled the first full-length trailer of the film featuring Tom Holland in the lead role alongside Zendaya, Jacob Batalon, and an ensemble cast. While the film is already busy breaking records in terms of buzz, it is being said that “Brand New Day” might turn out to be a box office bonanza — potentially even bigger than “Spider-Man: No Way Home.”
“Spider-Man: No Way Home,” which was released in 2021, managed to earn a staggering $1.9 billion worldwide as per Box Office Mojo despite pandemic constraints. Now, if early predictions are anything to go by, there is a strong possibility that “Brand New Day” could surpass that total and even cross the $2 billion milestone. That makes this the perfect time to revisit what the last three Tom Holland-led Spidey films achieved at the global box office, cementing their place as one of the most profitable trilogies in history.
Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017)
Tom Holland, who had until then only appeared in ensemble films following his debut in “Captain America: Civil War,” stepped into his first solo outing with “Spider-Man: Homecoming,” marking the beginning of the trilogy. Made on a budget of $175 million, the film went on to earn $880.9 million worldwide. It recovered nearly five times its production cost, establishing a strong foundation for the franchise.

The second installment in the trilogy became the franchise’s first billion-dollar entry. By this point, the series had built a massive global fan base. While there was significant buzz hinting at a strong performance, few could have predicted that the film would go on to earn $1.13 billion worldwide against a budget of $200 million.
Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021)
The third film was widely expected to be a billion-dollar grosser even before production began. With Tom Holland joined by Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield, reprising their respective versions of Spider-Man, expectations were sky-high. The film delivered in spectacular fashion, becoming a global phenomenon and earning $1.91 billion worldwide on a $200 million budget — nearly ten times its cost.
Now, with “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” just a few months away from release, it will be interesting to see how the studio sustains the momentum and what new milestones the film might achieve.
According to the official logline, the story is set four years after the events of “No Way Home.” Peter Parker is now an adult living in complete isolation, having erased himself from the memories of those he loves. As he devotes himself entirely to protecting New York as Spider-Man, mounting pressure begins to take a toll, triggering a mysterious physical evolution. At the same time, a new pattern of crimes signals the rise of one of the most formidable threats he has ever faced.
“Spider-Man: Brand New Day” is set for a July 31, 2026 release.
