DC stronger than Marvel at the box office: a first since Christopher Nolan!
Superman is doing what only The Dark Knight succeeded in 2008.
The steel man still has the coast.
With SupermanDC is about to beat Marvel at the world box office for the first time since 2008.
James Gunn’s film is indeed imposing itself as the biggest superheroic success in 2025, ahead The fantastic four: first steps,, Captain America: Brave New World And Thunderbolts.
At present, Superman Acute $ 562 million in global revenue. It’s more than Captain America: Brave New World (which ended at 415 million), more than Thunderbolts (382 million) and obviously, it will also be more than The Fantastic Fourwhich has not yet passed the 400 million and which has experienced a spectacular fall in attendance in recent days, leaving little hope of catching up with its Kryptonian rival. No other Marvel film being planned by the end of 2025, the mass is said.
Superman will allow DC to beat Marvel, 17 years after the tidal wave The Dark Knightwhich had gleaned 1 billion and widely overshadowed Iron Man (560 million) and The incredible hulk (260 million) which then launched the MCU.
Subsequently, DC was never able to defeat the rival stable again. Even his biggest boxes – like Jokerbillionaire in 2019 (but beaten by Avengers: Endgame And Captain Marvel), like the 820 million WONDER WOMAN (beaten by The guards of the galaxy And Thor: Ragnarok) in 2017 or as the billion ofAquaman (beaten by Avengers: Infinity War) in 2018 – had failed to reverse the trend.
If James Gunn assured that the future of his new DC Universe was not based solely on the success of Supermanthe performance of the film at the box office will still give a serious boost to the franchise, and pose a strong precedent in the face of the future movie clashes with Marvel.
