It has been over 12 years since the Synderverse Man of Steel it cinemas with Henry Cavill as Superman and a lot has changed in the DC Cinematic Universe since then.

Superman~2025 from director and current DCEU boss James Gunn hits the top of the UK box office on its debut weekend with a solid nearly £7 Million weekend gross.

Compared to Man of Steel from 2013 this is lower with that movie taking £11 Million on its debut.

Comparing it to other Superman movies, its higher that the 2006 Bryan Singer movie Superman Returns which scraped in just over £4 Million and the classic 1978 Superman starring Christopher Reeves took just over a million on its debut which would be just over £4 Million adjusted for inflation - but cinema was very different back then.

Falling to number 2 this weekend after a single weekend at the top is Jurassic World: Rebirth which has taken over £19 Million after just 2 weekends in cinemas.
