Tom Holland’s Spider-Man: No Way Home has been crushing tons of records since it was released. However, Avengers: Endgame still holds plenty of records that No Way Home just can’t quite reach. This weekend, it was able to unseat Endgame for a notable record, which is becoming the top-selling pre-order of all time on the video service Vudu. It seems like a lot of people want to add this exciting Marvel title to their digital collection.
If you’re one of the people who want their own digital copy of Spider-Man: No Way Home, there’s still time to make that pre-order record even harder for future movies to pass. The movie becomes available on Vudu March 22, and you can get it in Standard Definition, HDX, and 4K Ultra HD. If you want the whole Tom Holland trilogy, you can pre-order the movie that way and get all three films, or you can go for broke and get a Spider-Man eight-film bundle featuring the Tom Holland movies, the Andrew Garfield movies, and the Tobey Maguire movies.
If you haven’t seen Spider-Man: No Way Home yet, you’re missing out on one of the biggest and boldest Spider-Man movies to date. It features Tom Holland’s Peter Parker enlisting Dr. Strange to cast a spell that will make people forget that he’s Spider-Man, after Mysterio revealed his secret identity to the world in Spider-Man: Far From Home. The spell goes awry and opens up the multiverse, letting in villains from previous Spider-Man movies like Green Goblin, Electro, Sandman, Lizard, and Dr. Octopus. The movie is a wild ride full of fan service and has huge implications for the ongoing Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Tom Holland’s third outing as Spider-Man has been a huge win for Marvel and Sony. Currently, it’s the sixth highest-grossing film of all time, right behind Avengers: Infinity War in fifth. The only other Marvel film above these two is the aforementioned Avengers: Endgame in second. While it looks like Spider-Man: No Way Home is done climbing that particular ranking, it’s still incredibly impressive considering all of the movies above it on the list weren’t contending with a pandemic during their theatrical release. The film broke some other notable records, including the third highest-grossing film of all time in the US and Canada, the highest-grossing Spider-Man movie, and the highest-grossing film released by Sony. With this recent Vudu record now firmly in the accolades, who knows how many more records the movie might be able to surpass.
While Spider-Man: No Way Home might have wrapped up the trilogy for Tom Holland’s Spider-Man, we can’t imagine it will be his last outing with the massive success of this movie. Holland has expressed interest in continuing his role, and Marvel and Sony heads Kevin Fiege and Amy Pascal have said there are plans for future films. When a franchise is raking in this much money, it almost seems like a sure thing. Until then, if you want to see what’s next for Marvel and the multiverse, you can check out Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness when it hits theatres on May 6.
