Superman hit the big screen on July 11 with all the power of a Kryptonian smashing through a Metropolis high-rise. The film is a reboot from director James Gunn, who directed the Guardians of the Galaxy series.

The movie — launching a new era for DC Studios — will be only the third Hollywood pic of the year so far to cross the century mark in its domestic box office debut.

Warner Bros./DC Studios’ “Superman” is keeping a red hot July box office humming with a $56.5 million opening day that includes $22.5 million from Thursday previews. Independent projections now have the first film in James Gunn’s new DC cinematic universe earning a $122 million domestic opening from 4,135 locations.
