Summary
DC Studios co-head Peter Safran has addressed the disappointing box office performance of Supergirl, which earned just $63m in its opening weekend against a $170m budget — a stark contrast to the $125m opening of its predecessor, James Gunn's Superman. The film, starring Milly Alcock, was poorly received by both critics and audiences.
