Supergirl movie tanks, becomes worst-earning DC film in 22 years

The recently released DC movie "Supergirl" is experiencing a significant box office underperformance, making it the lowest-earning DC film in 22 years, surpassing even "Catwoman" from 2004 when adjusted for inflation. The film has grossed $108 million globally and is struggling to reach the financial performance of other poorly received DC movies. This poor performance is particularly concerning as it marks an early step in the new DC Universe, raising questions about the franchise's future direction and its ability to connect with audiences.
