Supergirl reaches number one on HBO Max in 23 countries
The DC Studios film ‘Supergirl’, starring Milly Alcock, has seen a significant surge in popularity following its release on HBO Max. According to FlixPatrol, the movie reached the number one spot for films on the platform in 23 countries, including the United Kingdom, Australia, Spain, and Portugal. It also ranked second in the service’s global rankings and held the top position in the United States.
This streaming success follows a disappointing theatrical run. The film, which had a production budget of approximately $170 million, grossed roughly $126.4 million worldwide. The shift to streaming has prompted renewed discussion among audiences, with some viewers on platforms like Reddit expressing surprise at the film's quality compared to the negative reception it received during its cinema release.
Directed by Craig Gillespie, the film is part of James Gunn’s new DC Universe (DCU). It draws inspiration from the comic ‘Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow’ and focuses on the distinct emotional journey of Kara Zor-El, distinguishing her character from the Superman persona.
