Warner Bros./DC Studios “Superman” holds a Red Hot July Casseta office with an opening day of $ 56.5 million which includes $ 22.5 million from previews on Thursday. Independent forecasts now have the first film in James Gunn’s new DC Cinematic Universe, which earns a domestic opening of $ 122 million from 4,135 seats.
Forecasts for “superman” were Everywhere During the days that led to release, although independent tracker NRG’s prediction came to $ 130 million. If Matinee shows on Saturday and Sunday, “Superman” can get closer to that figure, along with the $ 133 million opening of Matt Reeves “The Batman” in March 2022 and the unreleased $ 128 million start of the last “solo” Superman movie, Zack Snyder’s “Man of Steel”, in 2013.
The Cinemascore votes for “Superman” also match the previous two DC films with an A- Rat tomatoes Lots of 82% critics and 94% audience. Provided enough of the unused movie guest popul is open to watching superhero films and not ignoring the surrer as something for a type of movie that they are no longer interested in, “Superman” should have several weeks high performance even with the upcoming edition of Marvel Studios “The Fantastic 4: First Steps.”
But while domestic sales look strong, “Superman” looks like it will not enjoy the overseas support that “The Batman” and many other meets superhero films have had. So far, the film has collected $ 40 million from 78 international markets and puts it in a position where it will probably take the majority of its global gross from domestic receipts.
An important factor in this softer overseas start comes from fierce competition from Universal/Ambrins “Jurassic World: Rebirth”, which earned $ 171 million internationally last weekend to earn the best global launch of the year at $ 322 million. While international figures for their second weekend will not be reported by Universal until Sunday, the film earns an estimated $ 38.7 million in this framework for a two -week total $ 230 million.
