DC Studios is flying high as Superman surpasses $400 million worldwide in just its second weekend, delivering a much-needed victory for Warner Bros. and director James Gunn. The reboot starring David Corenswet as the Man of Steel held strong with a $57.2 million domestic second weekend, bringing its North American total to $235 million. Overseas, it added another $45.2 million, pushing its global haul to $406.8 million.
The film’s strong legs have already propelled it past the full global run of Marvel’s Thunderbolts and are days away from overtaking Captain America: Brave New World. With Fantastic Four arriving this week, Superman has just a few more days of clear skies before losing premium screens.
Meanwhile, Jurassic World Rebirth passed $600 million globally, holding second place with $23.4 million domestic and $40.3 million international. Horror reboot I Know What You Did Last Summer opened with $13 million, while Smurfs debuted to $11 million domestically and $22.6 million overseas. Rounding out the top five, Apple’s F1: The Movie continues to impress with $460.8 million globally, redefining expectations for Formula One cinema.
