"Superman" is well-liked and should play for weeks in the U.S., but DC's path back to tentpole powerhouse status will take time.

Warner Bros. and DC Studios' Superman had an even bigger opening weekend at the box office than first thought.

“Superman” opened with an impressive $122 million at the domestic box office, Warner Bros. told multiple outlets Sunday, after landing the year’s second-largest opening day Friday, with the film on track to gross over $217 million internationally.
