DC Studios and Warner Bros. ’ Superman, starring David Corenswet, surpassed $300 million at the US-Canada box office on July 31, 2025, just 21 days after its release, per Deadline. This marks the first DC film to achieve this since 2022’s The Batman, making it the ninth DC title to reach this domestic milestone.
The film has surpassed Zack Snyder’s Man of Steel, which earned $291 million, and Justice League, which made $229 million, both featuring Henry Cavill. It is currently just 4% behind The Batman at the same point in its release, but leads 2017’s Wonder Woman by 2%. This performance reflects strong word-of-mouth and sustained interest, even amid a crowded summer release schedule. Other DC films that have crossed the $300 million mark include The Dark Knight ($534.9 million), The Dark Knight Rises ($448.1 million), Wonder Woman ($412.8 million), Joker ($335.4 million), Aquaman ($335.1 million), Batman v Superman ($330.3 million), and Suicide Squad ($325.1 million).
