Have you seen the new Spiderman film yet? Well it wouldn't surprise us if you had.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day has had the second-biggest opening weekend ever, bringing in $927m (£687m) of global ticket sales.

The film is only behind Avengers: Endgame which came out in 2019 and took in more than $1.2bn on its opening weekend.

The reviews so far have been mainly positive, saying that it's Tom Holland's best Spider-Man performance yet.

But what do you think? Have you seen the movie yet? Is it on your 'to-watch' list or are you not that bothered? Let us know in the comments below.

The superhero movie - which stars real-life husband and wife Tom Holland and Zendaya - also set a second-best North American record, with box office takings of $335m.

Marvel Studios is very happy about the film's success, as recent Marvel movies have not been as popular as they'd hoped in the last few years.

The president of Marvel Studios, Kevin Feige, says the opening weekend was "truly phenomenal".

Brand New Day is set a few years after Spider-Man: No Way Home, which was released in 2021.

It follows Peter Parker as he continues to fight crime in a world that has forgotten he is the masked superhero.
