Synopsis
When charismatic but down-on-his-luck Stanton Carlisle endears himself to clairvoyant Zeena and her has-been mentalist husband Pete at a traveling carnival, he crafts a golden ticket to success, using this newly acquired knowledge to grift the wealthy elite of 1940s New York society. With the virtuous Molly loyally by his side, Stanton plots to con a dangerous tycoon with the aid of a mysterious psychiatrist who might be his most formidable opponent yet.

After two dismal years for the theatrical business, Spider-Man has returned to change the rules of the game. Again. Back in 2002, the first Spider-Man movie set an all-time record by opening with $114.8 million—becoming the first film to top $100 million at the box office in a single weekend. That was arguably the beginning of the modern era at the box office.
This weekend, Spider-Man: No Way Home may be kicking off the post-pandemic era with a gargantuan $253-million opening. That’s not just the best result of the pandemic. It’s the best by a huge margin, more than doubling the opening of Venom: Let There Be Carnage, which itself significantly outperformed expectations. Even more impressively, it’s the third-best weekend of all time, behind only Avengers: Endgame ($357 million) and Avengers: Infinity War ($258 million). In fact, a good Sunday number would take it into second place on that list.
Oh, and it’s already the highest-grossing film of 2021.

Spider-Man: No Way Home is already rewriting the pandemic record books, after posting a spectacular $50 million in previews on Thursday. That’s the third-best preview number ever, and well ahead of our model’s most optimistic prediction going into the weekend. Every film not in the Twilight Saga franchise that has earned even half that amount from previews has gone on to open with over $150 million. So a very, very big weekend is in store. So big, that it’s taken quite a bit of number crunching to settle on what I think is a good prediction.
