According to director James Gunn, the international box office performance for Superman 2025 has been low because he’s not as known as other superheroes in other countries like Batman is and due to “a certain amount of anti-American sentiment around the world right now.”

As of mid-Friday, estimates suggest an opening day haul of around $56 million, including the $24 million in previews. This marks a remarkable achievement, as it puts the film on par with Superman’s domestic opening day of $56.5 million.

James Gunn’s Superman has already broken a few records at the box office, but does it stack up against Man of Steel?
