'Superman' Crosses $600M Globally, Sequel Confirmed

As of September 8, 2025, the James Gunn-directed 'Superman' movie has achieved a significant box office milestone. The film has now crossed the $600 million mark in worldwide box office collections, a remarkable feat for the DC Universe reboot.

Despite losing 637 theaters in the past week, 'Superman' continues to perform well, collecting $1 million on its ninth three-day weekend at the domestic box office. This brings the film's total North American earnings to $353.3 million, making it the third-highest-grossing movie of the year in the United States and Canada.

Internationally, the film has also seen steady success, collecting $500,000 on its ninth weekend and reaching a cumulative international box office of $260.8 million across 78 markets. With a worldwide total of $614.1 million, 'Superman' has surpassed its break-even target of $562.5 million, ensuring a healthy financial return for the studio.

The positive performance of 'Superman' has prompted Warner Bros. to greenlight a sequel, tentatively titled 'Man of Tomorrow,' which is expected to be released on July 9. This decision underscores the film's popularity and the studio's confidence in the new direction of the DC Universe under James Gunn's leadership.

Critics and fans have praised the performances of the film's lead actors, including David Corenswet, Rachel Brosnahan, and Nicholas Hoult. The movie's success sets a strong foundation for Gunn's vision for the DC Universe, and fans can look forward to more exciting developments in the future.
