A beloved animated Spider-Man movie starring Chris Pine has rocketed back into the Netflix top 10. The surge coincides with the massive box office haul of the latest Spider-Man adventure, aka Brand New Day.
Chris Pine’s Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse finds new audience on Netflix
Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse claimed the 10th position on Netflix’s U.S. ranking on August 11, 2026, based on FlixPatrol data. It shares the chart with another web-slinger title, Spider-Man: Homecoming, which grabbed the fifth slot. The full top 10 list that day included The Last House at number one, followed by In the Land of Saints and Sinners, Minions, 72 Hours, The Beach House Murders, Five Nights at Freddy’s 2, Black Adam, and Law Abiding Citizen. This animated entry sits as a distinct counterpoint to the ongoing theatrical dominance of Spider-Man: Brand New Day.
Before that, Chris Pine gave a performance that anchored Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse’s emotional core despite limited screen time. He voiced the blonde-haired Peter Parker native to Miles Morales’s dimension. The character operates at the height of his powers; an idealized, capable hero whom the public adores. His death comes early and violently, creating the vacuum that forces Miles to step into the role.
Directors Bob Persichetti, Peter Ramsey, and Rodney Rothman shaped it from a screenplay by Phil Lord and Rothman. Shameik Moore leads the voice cast as Miles Morales. Jake Johnson voices a disheveled alternate Peter Parker, while Hailee Steinfeld brings Gwen Stacy to life. The supporting roster includes Mahershala Ali, Brian Tyree Henry, Lily Tomlin, Zoë Kravitz, Nicolas Cage, and more. The plot threads multiple realities together as Miles teams with various Spider-People to stop Kingpin from destroying the multiverse.
Now, the streaming surge coincides with enormous theatrical momentum for the franchise. Spider-Man: Brand New Day, directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, has neared a $700 million domestic total during the same period. The film stars Tom Holland as Peter Parker alongside Zendaya, Sadie Sink, Jacob Batalon, Jon Bernthal, Florence Pugh, Tramell Tillman, Marisa Tomei, and Mark Ruffalo.
