‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’ Arrives on Streaming This Week as Extended Cut Rumours Emerge

Spider-Man: Brand New Day, starring Tom Holland, Zendaya and Sadie Sink, arrives on digital streaming this week as plans to re-release the film in theaters with footage cut from the original movie have emerged.

Released by Sony Pictures Entertainment subsidiary Columbia Pictures, Spider-Man: Brand New Day was released in theaters on July 31. Following the film’s record-setting opening weekend of $360.1 million in domestic ticket sales from 4,487 North American theaters — besting Avengers: Endgame’s $357.1 million recorod debut in 2019 — Spider-Man: Brand New Day went on to pass $1 billion at the worldwide box office in its first six days.

Then, 11 days later, the latest Marvel Cinematic Universe film crossed the $2 billion mark, becoming only the eighth film in movie history to do so. As of Friday, Spider-Man: Brand New Day has earned more than $954 million in North American theaters making it the highest-grossing film domestically of all-time and nearly $1.545 billion internationally for a running worldwide box office cume of $2.497 billion.

While Spider-Man: Brand New Day’s box office run will eventually come to an end (which will still be a while since it is still playing in 1,724 venues domestically), the sun will rise for the film in theaters once again. According to Deadline, “Sources are buzzing” that director Destin Daniel Crettin’s film “will have extra footage that includes, but is not limited to, Rosario Dawson’s character Claire Temple” and “other surprises.”

Temple, of course, appeared as the nurse character in the Marvel shows Jessica Jones, Iron Fist, Luke Cage and The Defenders. Dawson confirmed her participation in Spider-Man: Brand New Day during a July 25 panel interview at Galaxy Con in Raleigh, N.C. When discussing her work, Dawson said, “I even shot a scene in the new Spider-Man movie but I got cut out … I told my mom and she was like, ‘That sucks.’ Now I can’t post the pictures [I took on set].”

Dawson’s revelations are more than valid, considering Jon Bernthal’s Frank Castle who appeared in the Marvel series The Punisher, Daredevil and Daredevil: Born Again played a pivotal role in Spider-Man: Brand New Day.
