Topping the weekend box office? This looks like a job for Superman.

“Superman” earned $122 million at the domestic box office and $95 million internationally. So far, the DC reboot has amassed $217 million worldwide.

Written and directed by James Gunn, “Superman” brings Clark Kent and his superhero alter ego back to the silver screen. David Corenswet plays the titular character this time around. Corenswet previously appeared in the 2022 horror film “Pearl” and the 2024 action thriller “Twisters.”

“I think he’s the biggest movie star in the world,” Gunn told The New York Times. “I just don’t think people know it yet.”

The film also stars Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor and Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane.

Based on the 1938 comic book character, Superman has become a pop culture phenomenon that has inspired numerous TV shows and a film franchise.

Zack Snyder spearheaded the previous iteration, which starred Henry Cavill in the 2013 film “Man of Steel,” which earned $125 million during its opening weekend. Snyder also directed DC’s “Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice” and “Justice League.” However, Snyder stepped down from “Justice League” in 2017, and Joss Whedon took over during post-production.

In 2022, Warner Bros. Discovery appointed Gunn and Peter Safran co-CEOs and co-chairs of DC Studios.

“Their decades of experience in filmmaking, close ties to the creative community, and proven track record thrilling superhero fans around the globe make them uniquely qualified to develop a long-term strategy across film, TV, and animation, and take this iconic franchise to the next level of creative storytelling,” Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav told The Hollywood Reporter at the time.

In addition to the “Superman” reboot, fans can expect to get a DC “Supergirl” film starring “House of the Dragon” star Milly Alcock in 2026.
