The wait is about to end in a few days, and we will finally see James Gunn’s Superman on the big screens. China has begun pre-sales for the film, and it has started off with timid numbers. The day 1 pre-sales collections are way less than those of Aquaman 2, which stars Jason Momoa in the lead. David Corenswet’s film needs to pick up in the following weeks.
For the unversed, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom was released in 2023, and it marked the last film to come out of the old DC Universe. Unlike Aquaman, the sequel was a disaster. It suffered due to several delays and reshoots, resulting in a box office failure. Meanwhile, Gunn’s film will mark a new era and kick-start the new DCU. People eagerly await the movie as it has been a talking point since its inception, mainly because the makers did not retain Henry Cavill to continue playing Clark Kent.
How much did the film earn on its first day of pre-sales in China?
According to trade analyst Luiz Fernando‘s report, James Gunn’s much-awaited movie Superman kicked off its pre-sales on Tuesday. It is a slow start, and the film collected $22K only on the first day of the pre-sales. This is for the period of July 11-13. However, it is to be noted that only 13,000 screenings currently have pre-sales open, so ticket sales are expected to grow significantly as more screenings become available.
