Supergirl, starring Milly Alcock as the DC superhero, is off to a not-so-super start at the domestic box office.
Alcock, of course, was introduced in a cameo at the end of director James Gunn’s Superman in July 2025. Supergirl, which opened in theaters nationwide on Friday, is directed by I, Tonya and Cruella helmer Craig Gillespie and features Alcock in the lead as Kara Zor-El/Supergirl.

Supergirl also stars Eve Ridley as Ruthye Marye Knoll (Eve Ridley), a 14-year-old girl who seeks vengeance on the villainous Krem of the Yellow Hills (Matthias Schoenaerts) following a family tragedy. Kara’s after Krem, too, after the space pirate poisons Krypto the Superdog and has the antidote to save him.
Rated PG-13, Supergirl also features Jason Momoa as the alien mercenary Lobo, while David Corenswet appears in a small supporting role as Clark Kent/Superman.
Warner Bros. held special fan screenings on Wednesday, which, combined with Thursday preview screenings, earned $7.8 million. Friday’s domestic box office, including the preview numbers, comes in at an estimated $18 million, according to Deadline. As of Friday evening, Deadline projected Supergirl to make $40 million through Sunday. The film is playing in just over 3,600 North American venues.

On June 4, Deadline reported that Supergirl was tracking to $55 million-plus in its opening frame, but on Wednesday, the trade publication adjusted the number downward and projected an opening in the upper $40 million range. Variety, meanwhile, projected a $47 million to $50 million opening for the DC film.
According to Variety, Supergirl had a production budget of $170 million before worldwide marketing expenses.
When all is said and done on Sunday, Supergirl will open at No. 2 at the domestic box office, far behind Toy Story 5, which is projected by Deadline to earn $74 million from 4,425 North American theaters in its second weekend.

Should that projection hold, it will push Toy Story 5’s 10-day domestic tally past the $300 million mark.

Apart from Supergirl, the only other film to get a wide opening this weekend is the fifth and final Jackass movie, Jackass: Best and Last, which Deadline projects will earn $8 million to $10 million through Sunday from 2,855 venues domestically. Variety reported that Jackass: Best and Last had a $10 million production budget before marketing costs.
Deadline is projecting that writer-director Curry Barker’s Obsession will earn $8.5 million from 2,965 theaters for a No. 4 at the North American box office, which will boost the horror thriller’s running domestic take to $232.6 million since its May 15 opening.

Rounding out the domestic top five is Steven Spielberg’s alien thriller Disclosure Day, which is projected by Deadline to earn $7 million from 3,357 North American venues. Should the projection hold, it will boost Disclosure Day’s running domestic tally to $93.2 million.
Note: This box office report will be updated throughout the weekend as new information becomes available. The final numbers for this weekend’s box office will be released on Monday.
