Supergirl Box Office & James Gunn Future!
The 2026 Supergirl film, directed by Craig Gillespie and starring Milly Alcock, has ended up as a major box office disaster for Warner Bros., dealing a heavy blow to the newly relaunched DC Studios universe. Despite a massive production budget of up to $186 million—plus extensive marketing costs that required a global gross of over $300 to $400 million just to break even—the movie tanked with a weak $37.1 million domestic opening and a dismal worldwide total hovering around $99 million. This staggering underperformance means the studio is now facing predicted losses exceeding $100 million, a failure that has already ignited intense industry skepticism regarding the long-term viability and trajectory of the new DC cinematic franchise.
