Warner Bros. ‘Supergirl’ projected to earn about $55 million opening weekend in U.S
The upcoming DC Studios film Supergirl, starring Australian actress Milly Alcock as Kara Zor‑El, premieres on June 26 in theaters and IMAX. Alcock revealed that her superhero cape was crafted from the same fabric used for Christopher Reeve’s 1978 Superman cape, a detail highlighted in recent press interviews.
Box‑office tracking by Forbes and Cosmic Book News estimates a domestic opening between $47 million and $65 million, with a mid‑range projection of roughly $55 million. This would be modest compared with the $125 million opening of the DCU’s Superman earlier this year and is seen as an early test of James Gunn’s universe‑rebuild momentum. The film faces a crowded June slate, sharing its weekend with releases such as Disclosure Day, Toy Story 5, and a second‑weekend hold of The Mandalorian and Grogu. Performance will be watched closely as the first theatrical follow‑up after Superman for the new DCU umbrella.
