Hollywood Record Opening Days at Indian Box Office From 2000 to 2026: Spiderman franchise dominates with 8 entries
As Spider-Man: Brand New Day smashed the record opening day in India, here’s a look at past all-time record openers since the 2000s.
The ‘Superhero’ genre has carved a separate fan base among the Indian audiences. The newly released, Spider-Man: Brand New Day, smashed an all-time record opening at the Indian box office, grossing Rs. 73 crore on Day 1.
The film surpassed Avengers: Endgame, which had held the opening day record for the last seven years. This marks the sixth time since the original Spider-Man (2002) that a Spider-Man film has delivered the biggest Hollywood opening day in India. The web-slinger also featured in the two Avengers films, Endgame and Infinity War, that held the record, taking Spider-Man's tally to an incredible eight opening-day records.
Before the rise of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), Spider-Man was the biggest Hollywood IP in India, with the Avengers taking over that mantle. Later this year, Avengers: Doomsday is slated to release, which should aim to take the business to another level.
Apart from superhero films, only a few could make it to the list from 2000 to 2026. This includes King Kong, Casino Royale, 2012, and Furious 7. Let’s see which upcoming non-superhero film can enter this space.
