Resident Evil Director Zach Cregger Teases Sequel Ideas
Director Zach Cregger has revealed he has ideas for a sequel to his upcoming film, 'Resident Evil,' despite the film initially being planned as a standalone project.
Spider-Man: Brand New Day has officially crossed the $900 million mark at the domestic box office, making history as only the second film to do so.

On September 4, 2026, it was reported that Spider-Man: Brand New Day has officially surpassed the $900 million mark at the domestic box office. According to ComicBook.com, this achievement designates the film as only the second in cinematic history to reach this milestone, following Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
The Tom Holland-led film earned $1.64 million on Thursday, bringing its total domestic gross to approximately $899.76 million by that date. A definitive crossing of the $900 million threshold was anticipated for Friday. The success of Brand New Day has exceeded numerous expectations, significantly surpassing several benchmarks set by other films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
Spider-Man: Brand New Day represents a groundbreaking collaboration between multiple studios, showcasing Marvel characters owned by Sony, Disney, Fox, and Universal, among others. This unprecedented gathering of characters is particularly noteworthy and contributes to the film’s broad appeal, allowing it to resonate with both Marvel enthusiasts and general audiences alike. Critical acclaim and positive word of mouth have played crucial roles in drawing viewers to theaters for this iteration of Spider-Man.
Audience reception has been notably positive, with many fans appreciating how the film returns Spider-Man to his neighborhood roots, deviating from the high-stakes narratives that characterized previous entries like Spider-Man: No Way Home. The film has enjoyed substantial support from moviegoers, and many reviews highlight the enduring charm of the character as portrayed by Holland.
As of now, Brand New Day has generated over $2 billion worldwide, although it may not reach the $3 billion mark. The film’s current global gross stands at $2.3 billion, a commendable figure that places it among only eight films to achieve this level of income. Despite being close to the end of its theatrical run, the film’s performance continues to affirm the character's lasting legacy and popularity.
While the film does not yet have a streaming release date, its continued success in theaters may suggest that announcements regarding sequels or additional projects will surface in the coming months. Kevin Feige and Marvel executives are expected to be pleased with the robust box office results, as Brand New Day exemplifies Spider-Man's ability to connect with diverse audiences.
The achievement of crossing the $900 million domestic box office mark cements Spider-Man: Brand New Day as a significant milestone in the film’s franchise history and the broader cinematic landscape. It serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of Spider-Man, suggesting that audiences remain engaged with the character and the stories surrounding him. As the film’s run continues, this success could lead to further expansions of the Spider-Man cinematic universe, harnessing the franchise’s momentum to explore new storylines and character interactions.
