Spider-Man: No Way Home officially passes Avatar at all-time domestic box office
Baku, February 16, AZERTAC
Director Jon Watts' Tom Holland-led Marvel sequel added more to its box office tally, reaching $760.988 million so far domestically, making it the third highest grossing movie domestically of all time, not adjusted for inflation.
It took the spot from James Cameron's 2009 movie Avatar. The No. 2 spot is still held by 2019's Avengers: Endgame, with the top spot owned by 2015's Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
Worldwide, No Way Home has so far made $1.8 billion, and it hasn't even opened in China yet.
Holland, 25, has another new movie with Sony out this weekend, an adaptation of the PlayStation video games Uncharted, which also stars Mark Wahlberg and Antonio Banderas. The next entry in the Spider-Man universe is the long-delayed Jared Leto spin-off Morbius out April 1, and No Way Home's story branches off in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, in theaters May 6.
No Way Home earned an Oscar nomination for Best Visual Effects.
