China is currently enjoying the dino dynamite, Jurassic World Rebirth, and is not bothered by booking tickets for the upcoming DC movie, Superman. David Corenswet and James Gunn’s superhero movie continues to witness a timid pre-sales trend at the box office in China. Keep scrolling for more.
July is filled with the trending movies – this Friday, Jurassic World Rebirth was released, the DCU film will hit the screens next Friday, and then in the last week, The Fantastic Four: First Steps will round up this month. It is one of the busiest months for movie lovers, so none of the films can be missed. Meanwhile, people eagerly wait to watch David portray Clark Kent, and there is a chance that he will receive a heavy backlash. People will surely compare him with Henry Cavill, and it is an important film as it will mark the beginning of a new DC Universe.
How much has the film earned so far from the pre-sales in China?
Superman will hit the screens in China and worldwide on Friday. However, pre-sales have not yet picked up in the region; it is trailing behind major Hollywood movies, including Aquaman 2. David Corenswet‘s film hit the $187K cume only after the fourth pre-sales day in China. It is for the July 10-13 period.
