“‘Spider-Man’ is destined to be the largest debut of 2021, as long as Omicron doesn’t shut down theaters and/or spook audiences,” Bock says.īeyond bragging rights to be among the first to watch Peter Parker - a.k.a. “No Way Home” hopes to supplant that benchmark. When it comes to Holland’s prior solo ventures, 2017’s “Homecoming” opened to $117 million and 2019’s “Far From Home” bowed to $92 million. “Black Widow” ranked as Fandango’s top pre-seller of 2021 prior to “No Way Home,” but it’s Sony’s “Venom” sequel - with $90 million in North America - that landed the biggest domestic opening weekend of the year.
Now, it is more about getting away from the crowds.” “Before it was a matter of getting the best seat for a viewing experience. “For a lot of theatergoers, seating placement is much more important now than in pre-pandemic times, given that social distancing is a major component of being safe and feeling safe these days,” says Jeff Bock, a box office analyst with Exhibitor Relations. Also, several major chains have eliminated the option to buy tickets in person, so patrons have had to digitally reserve chairs before getting to the theaters. Since the pandemic, general audiences have gotten in the habit of purchasing tickets early to snag seats that aren’t too close to other customers. But when final weekend numbers were tallied, “No Time to Die” had generated $55 million, a lower three-day haul than all of the aforementioned titles. For instance, Fandango reported in October that pre-sales for “No Time to Die,” the latest James bond sequel, had been pacing ahead of “F9: The Fast Saga” and “Venom: Let There Be Carnage,” as well as its 007 predecessor “Spectre,” at the same point in their sales cycle.

Buying movie stubs beforehand indicates there’s solid anticipation among the property’s core fanbase, but it doesn’t always translate to inaugural box office records. Though “No Way Home” is expected to notch a heroic start at the domestic box office, news of robust pre-sales does not necessarily mean Holland’s latest “Spider-Man” adventure will beat - or even match - opening weekend tallies for “Infinity War” ($258 million domestic debut), “The Last Jedi” ($220 million domestic debut), or “The Rise of Skywalker” ($177 million domestic debut). On Fandango, “No Way Home” is actually outpacing blockbuster titles such as “Avengers: Infinity War,” “Spider-Man: Far From Home,” “Star Wars: The Last Jedi” and “Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.” Online ticketing service Fandango reported “Spider-Man: No Way Home” has shattered its pre-sale records for 2021, beating out Marvel’s “Black Widow.” Impressively, it’s keeping up with films that premiered prior to COVID-19, resulting in Fandango’s best first-day advance ticket sales since 2019’s superhero smash “Avengers: Endgame” (which ultimately debuted to a head-spinning $357 million).
For now, audiences do not appear to be concerned.
