CHATTER AWAY: Overnight Open Thread

Deadline Hollywood reports:

Studios sources tell us that Superman is at least a $200M global start at 60K global screens, split evenly between domestic and overseas. Stateside, we’re hearing that presales are at $20M, which is ahead of Gunn’s Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 ($118.4M) and behind Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania ($106.1M).

Stateside, rivals, some tracking firms and exhibitors’ internal estimates believe Superman flies to $115M-$130M.

What could put this over the top? Reviews which currently stand at 85% certified fresh on Rotten Tomatoes –roughly equal to the review rating of the original 1978 Richard Donner movie. That will convince the adults to go see this next rendition of Superman again.
