The Superman opening weekend could reach $ 175 million, but what do testing projections say?

The hype around James Gunn’S Superman I just started a higher gear with the recent trailer that has been released, and now the tracking of the early box office indicates a potentially massive debut.

According to the Insider Jeff Sneider, the restart could go up to an opening weekend of $ 175 million in North America. This is a heavy figure, and if it holds, it would be a great victory for both DC Studios and Warner Bros. Discovery.

On the Podcast Hot Mic, Sneider shared:

“I’m listening to Superman is currently in monitoring warning.”

He stopped calling him $ 200 million, and observed that he is not convinced that the film will break the brand of $ 1 billion globally. However, with numbers such as what they float this in advance, it is a sign that the general interest in reimagination by Gunn of the steel man is very real.

It was also tried again that the film could earn between 650 million USDs and 850 million USD all over the world. “If he performs in the highest band, he could approach the correspondence of the earnings adjusted for the inflation of Steel manwhich has reached the peak to 890 million USD and even exceeds Justice League AND The Batmanwhich collected 661.3 million USD respectively and 772.3 million dollars. “

I was wondering if this movie would have been a great success at the box office. My fear is that, even if it is a great film, that people will not see it in cinemas. Many fantastic films that have had the things of a success of Block Buster have had disappointing racing at the box office, that this is another Superman Would DC’s movie the general public would be interested in watching it?

But the momentum was built since the December teaser beat the records of spectators. This was followed by a five -minute extension and a special “Superman Day” featurette, both received with a wave of enthusiasm from fans.

While some have questioned the stellar power of lead David CorenswetThe general public seems ready to embrace the most hope and comic version of Gunn on the character.

This version of Superman abandons the meditabondo and tired hero of the world that we have seen in the DCEU and instead inclrates into optimism, which is a great tonal change that could be part of the brand or, if it does not slip, sink DC’s restart plans before really taking off.

That’s why the stakes could not be higher. Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow it is already on site, together with several shows of the shows, but if Superman Underperforms, could shake the foundations of Gunn and Peter Safran leadership at DC Studios.

Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav He has already made his right dose of controversial moves, don’t expect it to hesitate if the numbers are not up to par.

However, not all the buzz is brilliant. While the general tone of the tests of the tests was strong, Sneider noted that he had heard at least a very frank feedback:

“Superman stinks.”

It is not the type of quote you want to float, especially when it restarts one of the most loved characters of pop culture. But we must remember that the projections of the tests are always provided with the outliers. And so far, the balance of reactions remains positive.

With Superman Open in July, this is only the beginning of the box office conversation. But he promises to be one of the most close outputs of the year.
