DC Studios' "Supergirl" flops in opening weekend, trailing "Toy Story 5"

The new DC Studios film "Supergirl" has underperformed significantly at the box office during its opening weekend, earning $38 million domestically and $30 million internationally. This performance places it among the lower-tier DC releases, falling far short of expectations and the success of "Toy Story 5," which dominated the weekend. The film's poor reception, marked by critical reviews and a low audience score, is part of a broader trend of declining interest in superhero movies, particularly those centered on female leads. AI
