Cinemark Theatres has debuted a series of in-theater products that will help fans to commemorate the release of Spider-Man: Brand New Day this summer.
The product line includes merch alongside concession stand items that are all themed with the Marvel comics franchise in mind, but also for fans ranging from kids to adults. The merch lineup includes a comic-themed blanket and a 32-ounce bottle, while the concession line includes a variety of themed popcorn containers that come with complimentary refills. The Spider-Man Combo Container is positioned as a dual-concession and merch product that will work for holding drinks but also function as a display piece in the home.
The Spider-Man: Brand New Day range is hitting Cinemark Theatres locations now ahead of the movie's July 31, 2026 release.
