Supergirl film records historic box‑office decline

The DC Universe film *Supergirl* has posted one of the lowest fourth‑week earnings in franchise history, pulling in just $1.4 million in the United States, a 62 % drop from the previous weekend. The weak performance follows an opening of about $37 million domestically and a steep second‑week fall to $9.6 million, leaving the worldwide total near $119 million.

Analysts estimate the movie’s production budget at $170 million and total costs, including marketing, at roughly $290 million. With global receipts projected to stay under $200 million, Warner Bros. Pictures is expected to incur losses between $80 million and $120 million. The film’s under‑performance is being cited as a symptom of the DC franchise’s broader strategic challenges.

Chinese media report the same figures, noting the film’s global gross of about $126 million and the anticipated financial shortfall for Warner Bros., underscoring the international relevance of the loss.
