After a steady streak of success over the last several weeks, which saw hits such as Obsession, Backrooms, and Toy Story 5, the domestic box office hit a speed bump this past weekend. Toy Story 5 retained the box-office crown, but had a bigger second-weekend drop than expected. Meanwhile, the big-budget superhero movie Supergirlfell drastically short of expectations, prompting DC Studios co-CEO Peter Safran to admit disappointment. The movie took the number two spot at the domestic box office in its opening weekend, grossing less than half of what the DC Universe’s first installment, Superman, earned in its first weekend in 2025. Supergirl also fell short of two of the biggest box-office bombs of the DC Extended Universe and Marvel Cinematic Universe franchises, respectively.
Directed by Craig Gillespie, Supergirl is headlined by Milly Alcock, with Jason Momoa appearing as Lobo. The film received mixed reviews from critics and audiences upon release, which will certainly have an impact on its future run. It now holds a 56% score on the aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, where the consensus reads, “Milly Alcock brings a swagger to Kara Zor-El that’d make Krypton proud in this otherwise familiar origin story, dawning a promising new hero in the DCU who’s still waiting for an adventure that matches her vigor.” The movie also received a poor B- grade from opening day audiences, according to CinemaScore.

Here’s How Much ‘Supergirl’ Grossed in Its Box-Office Debut
With $37.1 million at the domestic box office this weekend, the movie fell short of the $55 million haul of The Flash and the $46 million debut of The Marvels. Both those movies ultimately tanked, grossing around $270 million and $205 million worldwide, respectively. Supergirl‘s opening-weekend haul also fell short of Morbius‘ $39 million debut, but it was marginally higher than the openings of Joker: Folie à Deux, Birds of Prey, and Dark Phoenix. Supergirl is the second installment of the DC Universe, which was launched in 2025 with James Gunn‘s Superman. That film grossed $125 million domestically and around $220 million worldwide in its first weekend, and ended its run with around $620 million globally against a reported budget of $225 million. Supergirl, on the other hand, comes with a reported price tag in the $180 million range, which leaves it with an uphill climb.
Stay tuned to Collider for more updates.
