The hype is real for Spider-Man: No Way Home. While the box office hasn’t returned to pre-pandemic numbers yet, the newest film from Sony/Marvel Studios is looking to be the biggest film since theaters slowly began to reopen last Summer.
In its first day of pre-sales yesterday on Fandango, Spider-Man: No Way Home has already beat that of major films since 2019’s Avengers: Endgame, a film that would go on to have the biggest domestic opening of all time with $357.1 million. It beat out Black Widows’ pre-sale numbers in just two hours, a film that previously held the online ticket retailer’s best record of 2021.
The first-day presales for Spider-Man: No Way Home are higher than those for pre-pandemic titles such as Avengers: Infinity War, Spider-Man: Far From Home, Star Wars: The Last Jedi, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.
Spider-Man: No Way Home is expected to open to well over $100 million domestically, easily putting it in the top five highest box office openings for the month of December. Some insiders now believe the film can easily gross north of $225 million in its opening.
