5. Spider-Man: Homecoming ($900 Million)

Why It'll Happen: It's Spider-Man, and it's the MCU: what's not to like? Though the film's marketing hasn't exactly been terrific so far, the addition of Robert Downey Jr. as a supporting player should help bolster the box office, and honestly, $900 million could end up being a rather cautious estimate.

Don't be shocked if it becomes the first Spidey movie to join the $1 billion club, especially when factoring in international grosses.

Why It Might Not: The last two Spider-Man movies under-performed (grossing $757.9 million and $708.9 million respectively), so perhaps audiences are a little less excited about the character these days?
