Spider-Man has become the most streamed character on Disney+ in the United States, according to ScreenRant, as anticipation builds for the release of "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" on July 31, 2026.
Marvel Cinematic Universe movies currently make up half of the top 10 trending titles on Disney+ in America.
Tom Holland's Spider-Man films have drawn viewers back to revisit the character's journey ahead of his new solo film.
The previous films, including "Spider-Man: Homecoming" and "Far From Home," are key to understanding his story, while team-up movies like "Infinity War" and "Endgame" feature limited but important appearances.
"Spider-Man: Brand New Day" has already broken records for trailer views and ticket presales.
Box office projections estimate a debut near $190 million, possibly exceeding the $260 million launch of "No Way Home," as reported by ScreenRant.
Cooper Hood, Associate Editor at ScreenRant, said, "Many fans are busy binging these movies for a quick refresher on Peter Parker's journey before this new era starts."
The increased streaming of Spider-Man films indicates strong excitement for the upcoming movie, which follows Holland's Spider-Man iteration that has grossed $9.9 billion worldwide.
