Last weekend, the long-awaited Spider-Man: Brand New Dayexploded into life on the box office stage, storming to several eye-catching records. Not only did the film earn the biggest opening weekend haul in domestic history, but it also earned the largest preview haul with $72 million, as well as the biggest opening day with just shy of $170 million. It took Tom Holland‘s return as Peter Parker less than a week to break the billion-dollar boundary, doing so in the second-fastest time ever.
Brand New Day isn’t just a box office phenomenon; it is also a massive success with both critics and fans, with many calling it the best MCU movie in many years. In Charlie Ridgley‘s review for Collider, he awarded the movie an 8/10, calling it “the best Spidey adventure in 20 years.” If there is one thing that this instant triumph has taught us, it is that the anticipation for December 18’s Avengers: Doomsdayis clearly high, with it being undeniable that the promise of an unmissable round-up of cinema’s biggest franchise later this year has impacted Brand New Day‘s success.
But this isn’t the only way that the anticipation for Doomsday is visible already. At the time of writing, both Avengers: Infinity Warand Avengers: Endgamerank in the top ten most-streamed movies on Disney+ worldwide, as millions remind themselves of what came before ahead of December 18. It is the latter that Doomsday will be hoping to match the success of, with Endgame scoring the second-largest box office haul in cinema history ($2.8 billion).

Who Stars in ‘Avengers: Doomsday’?
It might be quicker to name everyone who won’t be appearing in Avengers: Doomsday. Disney and Marvel have put together perhaps the most jaw-dropping cast list for any film this century, with directors Joe and Anthony Russo facing a near impossible task to reward each of them with enough screen time. Among this cast are new additions to the MCU, such as Marvel’s First Family (Vanessa Kirby, Pedro Pascal, Joseph Quinn, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach), who feature alongside classic MCU favorites such as Chris Hemsworth, Anthony Mackie, and Tom Hiddleston, and even a selection of Noughties X-Men favorites in Kelsey Grammer, Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Alan Cumming, and James Marsden.
