The latest installment of the Spider-Man franchise has become the first pandemic-era movie to make more than US $1 billion at the global box office.
Spider-Man: No Way Home also took the title of the highest-grossing film of 2021.
It beat out Chinese-made Korean War epic The Battle of Lake Changjin, which has grossed more than $905m worldwide.
The last movie to gross more than $1bn was 2019's Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, according to media data analytics firm Comscore.
No other Hollywood production has come near to reaching that box office milestone since the pandemic began two years ago.
