Even with Marvel's First Family putting up a fight this weekend, Superman has still passed the global total of another MCU hit.

Superman has performed strongly at the box office and remained #1 in the domestic box office chart until this Friday. Read on

James Gunn's 'Superman' has completed its second weekend at the box office, giving us a clearer picture of where the DCU is headed.

According to the same report that revealed DC’s attempt to steal Kevin Feige from Marvel, the brass at Warner Bros. have set Superman’s worldwide financial goal post at a cool $500 million. That doesn’t look impossible, when looking at the $416.2 million haul, reported at the time of writing by Box Office Mojo.

Those ticket sales include $171.8 million overseas and $235 million from the North American market. Turnout remains softer than expected at the international box office, where “Superman” added $45.2 million in its second weekend.

Superman director James Gunn has blamed anti-American sentiment for the film’s underwhelming international box office performance.

During his first public appearance following his latest box office hit, the filmmaker earned a standing ovation from the Hall H crowd while choking up as he talked about his love of the comic book medium.

Superman' ruling supreme with $55M second weekend. 'I Know What You Did Last Summer' Ho-Hum $13M, 'Smurfs' $12M Opening.
