Batman v. Superman has been having a rough couple of weeks. It started out strong, but its second week drop was pretty hard, and it’s been continuing to drop pretty hard.
This weekend, the weekend champ was Jungle Book, with 60.8 million. Second place was The Huntsman: Winter’s War with a disappointing 20.08 million. Barbershop: The Next Cut got 10.8 million. Zootopia and The Boss slightly outgrossed Batman v. Superman this weekend, receiving 6.6 and 6.08 million, respectively. Batman v. Superman grossed a measly 5.5 million.
Keep in mind Batman v. Superman was released THREE weeks after Zootopia.
Following the events of Man of Steel, Gotham City-vigilante Batman travels to Metropolis to preemptively combat Superman, while another threat endangers humankind.
Directed by Zack Snyder with a script by Chris Terrio and David Goyer, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice stars Henry Cavill as Clark Kent/Superman, Ben Affleck as Bruce Wayne/Batman, Gal Gadot as Diana Prince/Wonder Woman, Jeese Eisenberg as Lex Luthor, Holly Hunter as Senator Finch, Jeremy Irons as Alfred Pennyworth, Amy Adams as Lois Lane, Laurence Fishburne as Perry White, Diane Lane as Martha Kent, Tao Okamoto as Mercy Graves, and Scoot McNairy and Callan Mulvey in unspecified roles. Erza Miller, Ray Fisher and Jason Momoa make cameo appereances as The Flash, Cyborg and Aquaman respectively. Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is in theaters now!
