James Gunn’s Superman has crossed $500 million at the worldwide box office, reaching $503.5 million in total and moving ahead of Marvel’s Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. Most of its earnings come from the domestic market, with $289.4 million, while the international total stands at $214.1 million. However, the film, despite a softer overseas turnout, has become a steady win for DC Studios, especially when compared with other recent superhero releases.

Superman Reaches Production Breakeven Point
The limited international draw remains a challenge for Superman, as many major blockbusters owe much of their success to overseas markets. Avengers: Endgame, for example, earned $1.9 billion of its $2.7 billion worldwide haul outside the United States.
Even with that gap, Superman has passed its production breakeven target of $450 million, covering its $225 million budget, per Screenrant. However, with an additional $125 million spent on marketing, the film will likely need around $600 million to break even fully.
Quantumania, on the other hand, technically matched its production budget with its $476 million gross against $200 million in costs, but after marketing expenses, it may still have left Marvel with a financial setback. Superman’s climb, while not record-breaking, signals a stable start for Gunn’s new DC Universe.
