Spider-Man: No Way Home is first billion-dollar movie since 2019
• https://www.cnet.com by Gael Fashingbauer CooperThe new movie Spider-Man: No Way Home has found a way home after all -- in the billion-dollar club. The movie swung into theaters in the US on Dec. 17, and even before that, it was breaking ticket sale records and trailer release records. It earned $253 million in its opening weekend, the highest opening weekend in the 19-year history of live-action Spider-Man movies. And now, the film has crossed the billion-dollar earnings threshold, Sony said, taking just 12 days to do so.
Because of how the coronavirus pandemic has affected moviegoing, it's the first movie to make a billion dollars since 2019. Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker joined the billion-dollar club in December 2019.
