‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’ Takes Fifth No. 1 As ‘Coyote vs. Acme’ Takes $14 Million Opening

Spider-Man: Brand New Day secured its fifth consecutive number one spot at the box office. New releases showed mixed results, as Ketchup Entertainment's Coyote vs. Acme earned a $14 million opening, nearly quintupling the company's previous record. In contrast, 20th Century's The Dog Stars struggled significantly, launching with only $7 million overall and earning just $3 million on Friday. Sony and Marvel continue to dominate the weekend rankings despite the arrival of these two major newcomers.
