‘Spider-Man’ Cements Zendaya And Tom Holland As The 2026 Box Office's Highest-Grossing Couple
Key Points:
- Tom Holland and Zendaya have dominated the global box office this summer, with "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" earning $927 million worldwide and "The Odyssey" grossing $911 million, contributing to the biggest domestic box office weekend ever at roughly $430 million in North America.
- Zendaya's films have collectively earned nearly $2 billion worldwide this year, with upcoming projects like "Dune: Part Three" potentially pushing her closer to the record for the biggest single-year box office total for an actress.
- Holland has amassed approximately $1.8 billion in worldwide grosses this year and may further boost his totals with the upcoming "Avengers: Doomsday," which could set new box office records.
