Spider-Man: No Way Home has officially earned over $1 billion at the global box office and has become the top-grossing film of 2021.


Tom Holland's latest adventure as Spidey reached the impressive milestone over the Christmas weekend by earning another $81.5 million domestically and $121.4 million internationally.

These numbers - which brought the domestic total of the film to $467.3 million and the international total to $587.1 million - were enough to help it secure the third-highest Christmas Day gross, 10-day gross, and Super Hero film gross of all time.


Furthermore, No Way Home has earned enough to become the second-highest grossing film of any year's December.

Alongside seeing a drop of only 57% from its opening weekend gross of $253 million, No Way Home is also tracking of ahead of Spider-Man: Far From Home by 51% and Spider-Man: Homecoming by 99% for "the same group of markets at current exchange rates."


Spider-Man: No Way Home is just the 49th film to cross $1 billion at the global box office and currently ranks at #38 just above 2019's Aladdin and Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides.


According to Box Office Mojo, Sing 2 placed a distant second at the domestic weekend box office, bringing in $23.7 million and outperforming The Matrix Resurrections' $12 million. The fourth mainline Matrix film had the weakest domestic weekend box office opening of the franchise and fell behind The Matrix's $27.7 million, The Matrix Reloaded's $91.7 million, and The Matrix Revolutions' $48.4 million.

It's important to remember that The Matrix Resurrections is also available on HBO Max at no extra cost, while Spider-Man: No Way Home and Sing 2 are currently only playing in theaters.


Rounding out the top five this holiday weekend are The King's Man at $6.3 million and American Underdog at $6.2 million.
