One of the biggest movies of the summer is almost on when James Gunn’s “Superman” is preparing to rise to the theater near you in July. Not only does the movie introduce the audience to the new Clark Kent (played by David Corenswet), but it also means the beginning of the film to start a new DC universe It is led by Gunn and David Safra, DC studios heads. The film must be delivered and means making large companies in the box office. Now we have an idea of what it can look like on the opening weekend.
Although “Superman” has currently earned a relatively early stage during the follow -up period, “Superman” is expected to earn $ 90-145 million on the opening weekend, depending on which tracking service or distribution sources (towards distribution sources Deadline). But that $ 90 million figure seems to be on the very conservative side Boxage theory is Gunn’s new film that takes $ 140-185 million during his three -day domestic debut since this writing. Either way, it seems to be $ 100 million to the north, but is confirmed. The real question is: how high can this new steelleno?
If the film opens closer to $ 90 million, a proper comparison may be 2017 “Justice League” (Opening of $ 93.8 million/$ 661.3 million worldwide). There were problems with the movie, but with regard to dollars and cents, it’s right on the ball field. For top -notch, if the film made his debut closer to $ 180 million, Marvel’s “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” (Opening $ 181.3 million/$ 859.2 million worldwide) could make a good comparison, especially as this more specifically reflects the pandemic ERA ticket income.
The details of the “Superman” event are largely kept under the wrappers, but it is not a origin story and There are quite a few signs of larger DC universe. The actors also include Rachel Brosnahan (Lois Lane), Nicholas Hoult (Lex Luthor), Isabela Merced (Hawkgirl), Nathan Filion (Guy Gardner) and Edi Gatheg (Mister Farlific).
Can Superman get DC studios with a strong start with the box office?
As far as the cost goes, Warner Bros. used about $ 225 million to produce “Superman” What does not take into account the massive global marketing cost currently ongoing. The film is likely to be made somewhere at $ 700 million in theaters before other income streams are taken into account. These current tracking numbers will surely refer to it to get there. It doesn’t hurt it The movie has a theater -friendly driving time just over two hours.
Interestingly, if Gunn’s film eventually arrives somewhere in the middle of current expectations, it may earn very similar money Zack Snyder’s “Man of Steel” (Opening of $ 116.9 million/$ 668 million worldwide). That movie started the expanded universe of the old DC, which never came together and had a very messy, uneven driving from start to finish. Gunn and Safran very much hope to avoid such bumps on the road with this DCU ruling.
Although “Supergirl” and “Clayface” are not too ahead of them, the theaters are scheduled for next year on “lanterns”, “Creature Commandos” 2 and with several other projects on the TV side. Getting a positive pace would undoubtedly benefit other DCU titles of the slate.
It is important to note that these numbers are preliminary. It is early and much to change now and between the actual release date. Rather, we need to see what critics have to say about the movie. If “Superman” arrives a lot of chip, a $ 180 million figure may start to look much more realistic. The great oral word is what turned into Gunn’s own “Guardians of the Galaxy” unexpected crushing hit Marvel Studios In 2014.
“Superman” hits theaters on July 11, 2025.
