Supergirl Crash Breaks Historic DC Box Office Record

In a landscape filled with superhero spectacles, the cinematic journey of Supergirl ended not with a triumphant roar, but with a financial groan. The film achieved a worldwide gross of $125.9 million, yet this number reveals a stark reality: it sits among the biggest disappointments in the franchise’s history.

The theatrical run for the PG-13 rated superhero flick concluded with significant box office struggles. While it managed to pull in $72.1 million domestically, the worldwide total was dragged down by international performance, netting $53.8 million globally from distributor Warner Bros.

More critically, Supergirl holds a newly uncomfortable record: it is now the lowest-grossing modern DC film to ever reach the global box office, eclipsing even some of the franchise’s past failures. This staggering figure places it below films like Blue Beetle, which grossed approximately $130 million worldwide, and Shazam! Fury of the Gods, which pulled in roughly $133.5 million.

Despite its overall disappointment, the film managed to carve out some successes in specific global markets. The campaign kicked off across international territories on June 24, 2026, and while domestic performance dipped sharply after its $37.1 million opening weekend, international audiences showed some appetite for the action.

Australia led the Asia Pacific region with a total gross of $4.2 million throughout its run, demonstrating localized engagement. Meanwhile, Europe saw strong performances, with the United Kingdom topping all European markets and generating $7.8 million in revenue. Mexico also secured significant earnings across Latin American territories, bringing in $4.7 million.

The domestic success was heavily weighted toward North America, accounting for 57.3% of the film’s total worldwide haul, while international markets contributed the remaining 42.7%. Even within these global figures, specific countries provided notable results; Japan earned $2.09 million, and South Korea contributed $967 thousand across its theatrical run.

Ultimately, the hour and forty-eight minutes of action, adventure, drama, and science fiction delivered a commercial narrative that fell short of expectations, cementing Supergirl’s place as one of the franchise’s most memorable—and least successful—theatrical entries.
