Spider-Man tops The Odyssey globally

- Spider-Man: Brand New Day stayed No. 1 domestically over Labor Day weekend, but The Odyssey overtook it at the global weekend box office on Sept. 6. - Deadline reported The Odyssey earned about $46 million globally for the weekend, while Spider-Man: Brand New Day remained No. 3 all-time worldwide at $2.4 billion. - The 78th Emmy Awards air Sept. 14 on NBC and Peacock, after Creative Arts wins for Bad Bunny and Spider-Noir.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day and The Odyssey split the latest box-office picture over the Labor Day frame. Sony and Marvel’s Spider-Man sequel remained the top film in North America for a sixth straight weekend, according to studio estimates reported Sunday, while Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey moved ahead on the global weekend chart. CultureCasino’s Sept. 6 roundup on X bundled that box-office shift with two separate entertainment developments: Prime Video’s cancellation of Spider-Noir after one season and Bad Bunny’s first Emmy win. The post also pointed to Alanis Morissette’s lawsuit against a former tour manager, a case filed earlier in the week in federal court. (abcnews.com) ### Did Spider-Man actually beat The Odyssey worldwide? Deadline reported Sunday that The Odyssey, in its eighth weekend, took the top spot at the global weekend box office with about $46 million, ahead of Spider-Man: Brand New Day. The trade said Spider-Man still stood at roughly $2.4 billion worldwide, keeping it No. 3 on the all-time global chart. (deadline.com) ABC News and Variety, citing studio estimates, reported that Spider-Man: Brand New Day remained No. 1 in the domestic market for the sixth consecutive weekend. ABC said the film brought in an estimated $18 million for the three-day weekend and Sony projected $23.3 million over the four-day Labor Day holiday. ### Why did the social post say Spider-Man topped globally? (deadline.com) Earlier trade and entertainment write-ups reflected a narrower lead for Spider-Man on prior global frames, and some social roundups appear to have compressed multiple weekend snapshots into one item. By Sept. 6, the clearest trade reporting showed a split result: Spider-Man led domestically, while The Odyssey led the latest global weekend tally. (abcnews.com) MSN and ScreenRant summaries published Sunday also described The Odyssey as having passed Spider-Man on the global weekend chart for the first time. Those accounts matched Deadline’s topline result, though Deadline remains the primary industry source among the available reports. (themovieblog.com) ### What happened to Spider-Noir at Prime Video? Deadline reported on Sept. 4 that Prime Video canceled Spider-Noir after one season. The live-action series starred Nicolas Cage and had been part of Sony’s television push around Marvel-adjacent characters. The Hollywood Reporter said the cancellation came after the series had received 11 Emmy nominations, and follow-up coverage on Sept. 6 and Sept. 7 said the show went on to collect multiple Creative Arts Emmy wins after the cancellation news. (msn.com) Nicolas Cage later said one season was “perfect,” according to Deadline. ### Where does Bad Bunny fit into this roundup? (deadline.com) The Television Academy’s database lists Bad Bunny as an Emmy winner, confirming his first Emmy. Search results tied the win to the 2026 Super Bowl halftime show, which multiple reports said collected seven awards at the Creative Arts Emmys. The Television Academy also said the Creative Arts Emmy Awards took place on Sept. 5 and Sept. 6, with the 78th Emmy Awards scheduled for Sept. 14 at 8 p.m. (hollywoodreporter.com) ET on NBC and Peacock. ### What is Alanis Morissette alleging in court? Billboard Canada reported on Sept. 1 that Alanis Morissette sued former tour manager Keren Urinov in U.S. court, alleging fraud and extortion. (televisionacademy.com) The report said Morissette accused Urinov of a “calculated blackmail campaign” tied to threats to falsely report the singer for drug trafficking unless she agreed to a long-term employment arrangement. (interviews.televisionacademy.com) CelebrityAccess reported that the complaint was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California and seeks more than $75,000 in compensatory damages, as well as punitive damages. The next dated marker in this cluster is Sept. 14, when the main Emmy ceremony airs on NBC and Peacock. At the box office, fresh Monday holiday estimates are expected to refine the Labor Day numbers for Spider-Man: Brand New Day and The Odyssey.
