Hollywood is having a record-breaking run at the Indian box office in 2026, with Spider-Man: Brand New Day emerging as the highest-grossing Hollywood film in India. The film has surpassed Avatar: The Way of Water to claim the top spot, while Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey has also crossed the ₹200 crore mark.
According to trade estimates cited by Pinkvilla, Spider-Man: Brand New Day has collected around ₹485 crore in India. It is expected to cross ₹500 crore shortly and could potentially approach the ₹600 crore mark before completing its theatrical run.
The Odyssey, meanwhile, has become only the eighth Hollywood film to cross ₹200 crore at the Indian box office. The film has reportedly collected around ₹201.25 crore and is projected to finish at approximately ₹225 crore.

Hollywood box office gets another boost in 2026
The strong performance of these films comes during an unusually successful year for Hollywood releases in India. With the year only partway through, 2026 has already outperformed the annual Hollywood grosses recorded in each of the previous seven years, according to the trade estimates cited in the report. Only 2019 remains ahead.
The year could get even bigger with Avengers: Doomsday, which is among the most anticipated Hollywood releases scheduled for later in 2026. Given the franchise’s popularity in India, the film could further raise the benchmark set by Spider-Man: Brand New Day.
Spider-Man eyes ₹600 crore milestone
With Spider-Man: Brand New Day already at approximately ₹485 crore, the film is within striking distance of the ₹500 crore milestone. Its eventual lifetime collection will determine how far it can extend its lead over Avatar: The Way of Water.
The Odyssey has also established itself among the biggest Hollywood successes in the Indian market, crossing ₹200 crore and potentially finishing around ₹225 crore.
