"Spider-Man: Brand New Day" earned $144.5 million domestically in its second weekend, reaching $1.67 billion worldwide in 10 days and setting a record pace for the fastest-grossing film in U.S. and Canadian theaters. The Sony-Marvel release has accumulated $655.1 million domestically and surpassed $1 billion overseas, becoming the year's highest-grossing movie in just seven days. Its second weekend nearly topped the all-time record held by "The Force Awakens" with $149.2 million in 2015.

The film opens in China on Friday, and both blockbusters have driven summer ticket sales to near $4 billion.
