Part 4/12:
A more credible estimate from The Rap suggests the Superman film’s budget is around $225 million, aligning with typical production costs for high-caliber superhero movies today. Using this figure, industry analysts estimate that the film would need to gross approximately $530 million globally to break even.
To emphasize, while a Captain America: Brave New World with a $180 million budget needed around $425 million to turn a profit, Superman’s higher estimated budget raises that threshold, reflecting the substantial investment involved.
