Story summary

Tom Holland and Zendaya's new Spider-Man film has been a huge success, breaking box office records around the world. The movie, Spider-Man: Brand New Day, opened in the US and Canada with $360 million in ticket sales, making it the biggest opening weekend ever in North America. Globally, it brought in a staggering $927m (£687m) in its first weekend, just behind Avengers: Endgame's record-breaking opening. The film follows Peter Parker, played by Tom Holland, as he continues to fight crime in a world that has forgotten he is the masked superhero. The movie's success gives Marvel Studios a much-needed boost ahead of the highly-anticipated release of Avengers: Doomsday in December. The film's production budget was estimated at $225m (£167m), but it already shot past that mark in its first weekend, with early takings exceeding expectations.
