SUPES RISE TO THE TOP

‘Superman’ Soars in Box Office as ‘Lilo & Stitch’ Nears First $1B movie of the Year

This marks yet another victory for Warner Bros. following a series of box office flops.

James Gunn’s Superman grabbed $122 million at the box office this weekend U.S. box office, the third best opening weekend of 2025. A Minecraft Movie sits in first place at a $162 million opening weekend, and Lilo & Stitch comes in second at $146 million. The majority of Superman‘s turnout came domestically, with its international box office debut landing at around $95 million. In countries like France, Italy, and Germany, Jurassic World Rebirth continues to hold on to the number one slot, surpassing $500 million worldwide. Superman’s impressive debut marks yet another major win for Warner Bros, which has had continuous box office successes with new films like Sinners, A Minecraft Movie, and F1: The Movie, ending its recent streak of flops from movies like Mickey 17 and Joker: Folie à Deux. Concurrently, Disney’s Lilo & Stitch continued its upward rise this weekend with a $994.3 million box office run as of Sunday. The live-action remake of the beloved 2002 animated movie is now on its way to becoming the first $1 billion movie of the year.
