Sony Pictures, the studio behind the "Spider-Man" franchise, also reported Saturday that the movie took in an additional $45 million overseas on Friday for a worldwide total of $104 million, a record for single-day grosses globally. Sony spokesman Steve Elzer said executives at the studio declined to comment until estimates for the full weekend are available Sunday morning. By then, the "Spider-Man" franchise could reclaim the record for best three-day opening ever.

The first "Spider-Man" pulled in $114.8 million domestically in its debut weekend in 2002, a record that stood until "Dead Man's Chest" shattered it with $135.6 million last July.
