James Gunn's Superman is projected to have a record-breaking domestic box office opening of $115-$120 million, exceeding $56.5 million on Friday alone. This marks the first superhero film to surpass $100 million domestically since 2024's Deadpool & Wolverine and the first DC film to achieve this since Wonder Woman in 2017. The film's global opening is also expected to exceed $100 million, indicating a successful reboot for DC Studios. Positive critical and audience reception, along with a diverse audience, contribute to its success. The film stars David Corenswet as Superman and is part of Gunn's larger DC Universe relaunch.
