Spider-Man Sequel Keeps Widest Release as Box Office Run Persists

The Sony-Marvel blockbuster has earned $2.24 billion globally and will remain in 3,678 theaters this weekend, more than any other film. It faces new competition from Coyote vs. Acme and The Dog Stars, but is projected to add $22-27 million domestically. That would push its total past Titanic on the all-time chart.

The film's fifth-weekend theater count of 3,678 represents a modest 8 percent dip from its previous frame, an unusually shallow decline for a blockbuster at this stage of release. Its cumulative achievements include a $169 million opening day, a $360 million domestic debut weekend, and a record-setting $47 million single Monday, with the fastest sprint to $500 million in just seven days.

The weekend's challengers arrive with divergent outlooks. Coyote vs. Acme carries strong critical and audience approval but is tracking toward a modest debut, while Ridley Scott's The Dog Stars opens with largely unfavorable reviews. Both newcomers will play in fewer venues than the Spider-Man sequel, underscoring its continued exhibitor priority.
