After breaking pandemic domestic box-office records and being the first movie to make over a billion dollars at the box-office during COVID-19, Spider-Man: No Way Home is now considered to be the sixth highest-grossing movie of all time, passing Jurassic World and the 2019 remake of The Lion King, who are now the seventh and eighth highest-grossing movies of all time respectively.

The movie has grossed more than $1.691 billion worldwide and an incredible $721 million at the domestic box office, which is the fourth best-grossing domestic movie of all time, behind Avatar, Avengers: Endgame, and Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
It has now reclaimed its place as the highest-grossing movie of the weekend after the fifth installment of Scream outpaced it last week, raking in $30.6 million last weekend. With the prolonged effects of the pandemic, over the next month or so, No Way Home could still make loads of money and remain number one for another few weeks. Repeat viewings may help, but also with previously closed cinemas now reopening again, giving a chance for those who were unable to see Spider-Man to finally witness it on the big screen.
