“Avengers: Endgame” directors Joe and Anthony Russo have officially surrendered the box office opening weekend crown to “Spider-Man: Brand New Day.”
“Endgame” retains the record for biggest global opening at $1.2 billion.
It’s become common practice on social media for directors to pass the baton when box office records are broken.
The Russo Brothers won’t have to wait long for a chance to reclaim the box office opening record.
Their next Marvel effort, “Avengers: Doomsday,” is their sequel to “Endgame” and arrives in theaters on Dec. 18 with sky-high box office expectations.
