I adore Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, so it was disappointing to hear how few saw it at the cinemas. Fortunately, more people kept watching it at home, leading Sony to greenlight two sequels. The company isn't regretting that now.
Several American outlets, including Deadline, have revealed that Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse already has earned $120.5 million across the pond and $208.6 million globally. That makes it the second-biggest opening weekend of the year in the US by beating Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3's $118.4 million but falling short of The Super Mario Bros. Movie's $146 million.
This also means it had the third-biggest opening weekend for any Spider-Man movie (No Way Home and Spider-Man 3 did better), so it'll be interesting how high it can go.
