The film 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' continues its box office dominance for a sixth consecutive weekend, nearing domestic records. Meanwhile, other films like 'The Odyssey' and 'By Any Means' are competing for secondary spots.
Why it matters
The performance of major motion pictures is a key indicator of the health of the entertainment industry and consumer spending trends.

Sony and Marvel’s Spider-Man: Brand New Day is expected to be No. 1 for its sixth weekend in a row, with roughly $22 million over the four-day frame. The Destin Daniel Cretton-directed feature just crossed $900 million domestically, making it only the second film ever to do so, behind 2015’s Star Wars: The Force Awakens , which stands as the all-time domestic holder at $936 million. Brand New Day should pass that record soon to become the all-time domestic leader. Globally, Brand New Day has surpassed $2.33 billion, making it the No. 3 movie of all time behind Avatar and Avengers: Endgame, after passing up Avatar: The Way of Water .
