Supergirl Movie Faces Lukewarm Box Office Debut
27 Jun
Summary
- Supergirl earned $7.8 million in Thursday previews.
- The film is tracking for a $40-$50 million opening weekend.
- Viewers gave Supergirl a 'B-' CinemaScore rating.
The new Supergirl film has generated $7.8 million from its Thursday previews, including early IMAX fan screenings. This figure surpasses the preview collections of "Shazam" and "Black Adam." However, the movie is tracking for a modest opening weekend, with estimates ranging between $40 million and $50 million in North America.
In terms of audience reception, Supergirl received a "B-" on CinemaScore, marking a potentially concerning rating for a major PG-13 release. This score is lower than many recent DC films and even falls below "The Marvels." Projections suggest the film will not secure the number one spot at the box office, with "Toy Story 5" expected to remain dominant.
The film, released on June 26, follows Kara Zor-El on a vengeful intergalactic journey. Internationally, Supergirl is estimated to earn between $80 million and $90 million. Despite the strong preview numbers, its overall box office performance is anticipated to be moderate, and surpassing "Toy Story 5" throughout its run seems unlikely.
