Christopher Nolan’s epic film "The Odyssey" has reclaimed the top spot at the global box office, narrowly surpassing "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" in worldwide ticket sales for the weekend ending Sunday, September 6, 2026. This marks a shift in the unusual box office rivalry between the two films, both starring actors Tom Holland and Zendaya. "The Odyssey" earned approximately $45.96 million worldwide in its eighth weekend, edging out "Spider-Man: Brand New Day," which grossed $44.1 million in its sixth weekend. This latest result adds another chapter to the competition between the two major releases. "The Odyssey" has now amassed a global total of $1.627 billion, including $584.7 million from North America. The film has crossed the $1 billion mark in international sales, making it the 17th film in history to achieve this milestone. It is now approaching Universal Pictures' all-time global box office record of $1.67 billion, held by "Jurassic World." The film's performance has been significantly boosted by IMAX screenings, which generated $22.
