During its opening weekend, it grossed an underwhelming $55 million at the domestic box office. In its second weekend, that dropped 72% to a mere $15.3 million, with some pundits already predicting this will be a box office bomb.
According to Luiz Fernando, the film is estimated to earn $280-310 million globally in its theatrical run. When pitted against The Flash’s $200-220 million production budget, $150 million in marketing, and the fact that studios don’t take all of their box office haul, the movie may lose $200 million for Warner Bros.
Fernando believes they may have lost less money by releasing it on Max or not releasing it at all.
I'd watch the director's cut for the same reason. His power is just running fast right? The movie would just be him running toward or away from things for as long as a marathon lasts.
