Thirty-six days. That's how long it took Spider-Man: Brand New Day to cross $900 million at the North American box office, according to Variety and Koimoi, both citing Box Office Mojo numbers from the film's sixth Friday in theatres. Star Wars: The Force Awakens needed 50 days to get there back in 2015. Nobody's touched that record in eleven years. Now it's gone.

Two new action films opened wide on Friday hoping to knock the Marvel-Sony tentpole off its perch. Neither came close. Paramount's By Any Means, the Yahya Abdul-Mateen II and Mark Wahlberg thriller about a 1960s FBI-mafia team-up, pulled in $2.7 million and landed fourth, behind Spider-Man, Universal holdover The Odyssey and Coyote vs. Acme. A24's Onslaught, the Adria Arjona-led super-soldier chase movie from Godzilla vs. Kong director Adam Wingard, managed just $770,000 and is tracking toward a soft $2.3 million through the long weekend.

Spider-Man, meanwhile, added $3.9 million on Friday alone, down 30% from the week before but still enough to hold the top spot in its sixth weekend. That's a smaller Friday-to-Friday drop than Avengers: Endgame posted at the same stage, for what that comparison is worth. The film has shed 158 screens domestically as it enters its second month, the usual sign of a run winding down. Except this run isn't winding down in any way that matters to the ledger. It's still No. 1.

Here's where the two trade reports diverge slightly. Variety projects a $22 million four-day Labor Day weekend, which would push the domestic total to $922 million. Koimoi's tracking numbers put the three-day figure closer to $16-18 million. Either way, the film sails past the $903.7 million cume Koimoi logged after Friday, and either way, it's within striking distance of the number that actually matters here: The Force Awakens' $936.7 million lifetime domestic haul, the current record for the highest-grossing film ever released in North America.

Both outlets agree on the timeline. Brand New Day should overtake that record within the coming week, possibly by the next Friday tally. Globally the film stands at $2.34 billion, per Box Office Mojo, since its July 31 release, a number that already dwarfs most of what's playing around it.

Elsewhere on the chart, Coyote vs. Acme is having the better second weekend, adding roughly $15.3 million to push its total to $37.8 million. The Odyssey continues to hold at $588 million domestic. Twentieth Century's The Dog Stars is not so lucky, sliding to a projected $3.7 million in its second weekend after an already rough $8 million opening.

The number to watch now isn't $900 million. It's $936.7 million, and how soon Brand New Day gets there.
