Superman Worldwide Weekend Box Office: James Gunn and David Corenswet's superhero film flies high with a USD 217 million global start

Pink Villa12 hours ago
The new Superman movie directed by James Gunn and starring David Corenswet, Rachel Brosnahan and Nicholas Hoult, has taken a flight at the box office, pulling in an impressive USD 217 million worldwide during its opening weekend. This strong debut signals a promising return for the iconic DC Comics superhero, who has faced challenges in winning back fans after a rocky few years for the franchise in terms of public reception.
Superman Debuts With A USD 217 Million Global Start; A Strong Number For The Film's Budget
With a production budget estimated between USD 200-225 million, Superman is already on its path to profitability. It needs around USD 450 million to break even when factoring in marketing and other costs. Beyond ticket sales, the movie is expected to rake in substantial revenue from non-theatrical sources like streaming, home video, and merchandise.
Superman Scores Domestically; Slightly Underwhelms Internationally
The opening weekend was driven by a robust performance in the United States, where Superman grossed a commanding USD 122 million. This domestic haul reflects strong audience enthusiasm, with fans flocking to theatres to see the Man of Steel's latest big-screen adventure.
Overseas markets, however, told a different story. The international box office contributed USD 95 million to the global total, an underwhelming figure compared to expectations. While the film performed decently in Latin America, India and few other Asian countries, it struggled elsewhere.
Superman Is On Track For A USD 550 - 600 Million Global Gross
Superman is on track for a worldwide final gross of USD 550-600 million, a solid achievement for a DC Comics film in today's competitive market. This range positions the movie as a success, especially considering the franchise's recent struggles to connect with audiences. The DC brand has faced criticism for uneven films in the past, but Superman seems to be striking a chord with its blend of heart, action, and a fresh take on the classic hero. Positive word-of-mouth and favorable reviews should help sustain its performance in the coming weeks.

Kanye West Accuses Kim Kardashian of ‘Blowing Out' Money on Daughter North Amid Rumors of Him Going Broke: Reports

Kanye West is at his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, again. The rapper is enraged at the mother of four after she allegedly overspent money on her daughter, North. The Gold Digger crooner's fury was unleashed amid the rumors of him going broke. The media reports claimed that West, who is feuding with the reality TV star over their kids since the split, cannot compete with Kardashian financially. It is a blow to his pride. Meanwhile, Kim managed to arrange an expensive birthday party for her eldest daughter as she turned 13. The mom of four presented North with fancy gifts, an electric kids car, and even booked a yacht to keep the celebrations going. All of this pushed the rapper to the edge. Why is Kanye West broke in 2025? Kanye West and Kim Kardashian have been fighting for a long time over the custody of their kids. In the new progress, the sources close to the Grammy-winning artist mentioned that while he desperately wants to settle things with his ex-wife, West is unable to afford the cost of the legal battle. One of the reasons that the rapper is short on money could be his loss of the big sponsorships and his expensive deal with Adidas. Moreover, West saw a big blow in his business over the past couple of years. The Heartless rapper 's net worth fell from USD 1.5 billion to USD 400 million. Kanye West is enraged over Kim Kardashian's overspending act According to the sources close to the Runaway rapper, Kim Kardashian's financial status and overspending on their daughter have enraged West. An insider revealed to the media portal that the All's Fair actress is "blowing money like there's no tomorrow." They further mentioned, "Kim spent hundreds of thousands on this celebration. She flew North, and her friends flew down to Mexico on a private jet. Best of everything is a must.' Moreover, a source went on to say that Kanye is way behind Kim financially. They added, "Kanye can't keep pace with Kim financially, and it drives him crazy. It's a blow to his pride—and a tug to his neck in legal bills. North admires her dad, but she thinks her mom is better and richer. That's the painful reason he's so bitter and jealous." Kim Kardashian and Kanye West split up in 2022, after eight years of marriage. The exes share four kids.
