Spider-Man: Brand New Day, starring Tom Holland, Zendaya and Sadie Sink, has set another box office milestone. After posting the biggest opening weekend in U.S. history, the film has now scored the largest Tuesday gross in box office history.
The movie's success is also boosting its soundtrack. Songs featured in the film, including tracks by Tame Impala and Steve Lacy, have seen a surge in plays, with recent breakouts by ADÉLA and Dolly Babe also gaining traction.
In a separate development, BMW owners are voicing frustration over a promotional partnership between the automaker and Sony-Marvel that placed Spider-Man: Brand New Day advertisements directly inside their cars. The companies called it a "special surprise," but many drivers took to social media to complain, with some describing the experience as dystopian.
Cast members have been discussing the film's ending and what comes next. Jacob Batalon talked about a handshake scene that has become a talking point and said the story seems open-ended, hinting at more films. Michael Mando, returning as the villain Scorpion, said the character's potential has only begun to be explored and acknowledged thinking about Scorpion's future as Venom.
