Spider-Man: No Way Home Overtakes Avatar at Domestic Box Office

Spider-Man: No Way Home continues to climb the box office rankings, Spider-Man: No Way Home continues to swing towards success, with the recent Marvel sequel now overtaking sci-fi epic Avatar at the domestic box office.


Spider-Man: No Way Home has now amassed a hugely impressive domestic total of $761 million, passing Avatar’s $760.5 million, making the crowd-pleasing Spider-Man outing the No. 3 movie of all time. You can see more detailed box office information at The Numbers.


Of course, Avatar still holds the top spot worldwide thanks to its monstrous $2.84 billion earnings. Close behind Avatar though is another Marvel flick, Avengers: Endgame, which managed to accrue $2.79 billion. 


Spider-Man: No Way Home continues to crawl up these rankings as well however, currently sitting pretty at No. 6 and earning $1.8 billion, with the likes of Avengers: Infinity War, Star Wars: The Force Awakens, and Titanic standing above.


The achievement by Spider-Man: No Way Home is even more impressive considering that the MCU movie has not been released to theaters in China, a market that has become hugely influential over the last few years.


Box Office Milestone: ‘Spider-Man’ Swings Past ‘Avatar’ Domestically


The superhero pic now ranks as the No. 3 film of all time at the domestic box office. The Sony and Marvel superhero blockbuster on Monday passed up Avatar at the domestic box office to rank as the No. 3 movie of all time, not adjusted for inflation, according to the studio. Sony partnered with Marvel on the blockbuster.


The webslinger finished the day with a domestic total of $761 million. Avatar earned $760.5 million (that includes rereleases). Globally, however, Avatar remains the No. 1 film of all time worldwide after earning $2.84 billion throughout the course of its lifetime. Avengers: Endgame ranks No. 2, after earning $2.79 billion.


No Way Home is by no means a slouch. Internationally, it has grossed $1.047 billion for a global total of $1.8 billion to rank as No. 6 on the chart of top-grossing films worldwide.


The milestone is all the more impressive considering the superhero pic has not played in theaters in China, which presently ranks as the world’s biggest box office market.


Domestically, the list of top-grossing movies is led by Star Wars: The Force Awakens ($936.7 million), followed by Avengers: Endgame ($858.4 million).


No Way Home has shattered one record after another since debuting on the big screen in mid-December. The movie is the first Hollywood tentpole to do pre-pandemic-level business


Avatar to Become the Third-Highest Grossing Film in US History


Spider-Man: No Way Home has overtaken James Cameron's Avatar to become the third-highest grossing film in U.S. history, Sony has announced.


No Way Home now stands at $760.988 million domestically compared to the $760.5 million made by Avatar, with a Valentine's Day push of $1.615 million finally pushing Marvel's latest blockbuster over the line.


The feat comes exactly 60 days after the Tom Holland and Zendaya-led film hit cinemas in the U.S. on December 17. No Way Home has now made $1.8 billion worldwide, even before its launch in China. This places it eighth in the all-time list internationally, the top spot of which is still held firmly by Avatar.


James Cameron's sci-fi film has been fighting off Disney-owned films ever since it shot to the top of the U.S. box office in 2009. Avatar was overtaken by Star Wars: The Force Awakens (now in first place) in 2015 and again by Avengers: Endgame (now in second place) in 2019.


Black Panther now sits at fifth behind No Way Home and Avatar, followed by Avengers: Infinity War, Titanic, Jurassic World, The Avengers, and Star Wars: The Last Jedi in tenth.


Holland also stars in the Uncharted movie that started its international box office run with $22 million after launching on February 11.


It's coming to U.S. cinemas on February 18, and in our review, IGN said "Uncharted plays it safe, but it’s mostly a fun and effective adventure with an especially charming Tom Holland."
