James Gunn’s DCU is shrugging off Supergirl’s box office failure and preparing for its 3rd theatrical release. The film is eyeing a modest opening weekend, as we previously revealed, and it is once again raising the question of whether it could outshine Superman’s overall box office performance. The DCU debut movie won hearts and remains the highest-grossing in the newly formed DCU. Scroll below to find out the target it needs to beat Superman worldwide.
The DCU is now headed by James Gunn and Peter Safran. Due to Gunn’s association with Marvel Studios, many were skeptical about his hiring. He received a lot of backlash online for casting David Corenswet as Kal El instead of bringing Henry Cavill back in the role. But everyone went silent when the 2025 movie opened with solid numbers and eventually became a box-office hit.

For the unversed, Superman, the first film in the new DCU, was directed by James Gunn himself. His Guardians of the Galaxy films in the MCU received a lot of love from the fans; hence, many had faith in him despite the backlash. The David Corenswet starrer Superman opened with $125 million at the North American box office. Globally, it collected $618.7 million against a reported budget of $225 million [via Box Office Mojo]. It was thus a box office success.
