Box Office: ‘Supergirl’ stumbles with $37 million debut
“Supergirl” is struggling to take flight at the box office.
The comic book adaptation, a space adventure revolving around Superman’s cousin, debuted to a disappointing $37.1 million from 3,600 North American theaters. Heading into the weekend, the Warner Bros. and DC Studios film was targeting a domestic start of around $50 million to $55 million, which already would have been a soft launch for such a big-budget tentpole. “Supergirl” carries a substantial $170 million price tag, not including the mega marketing budget. Neither of the new releases was close to dethroning Disney and Pixar’s “Toy Story 5,” which ruled again with $70 million in its second weekend of release. “Obsession” slid to the No. 3 spot, ranking behind “Supergirl” and ahead of “Jackass: Best and Last.” (Source: Variety) Story Date: July 6, 2026
