SUPERMAN RETURNS OPENS TO $21M


Box office estimates for Superman Returns
Wednesday opening (including Tuesday evening showings that began after
10pm) are in and the Bryan Singer film took in an $21 million, making
it the 8th largest Wednesday opening ever, according to www.boxofficeguru.com.

For comparisons sake, Spider-Man 2, which also opened the Wednesday before the Fourth of July weekend two year ago, debuted to $40.4 million.

What affect the unusually long holiday weekend period (which many people taking Monday and Tuesday off from work) may have on up-front demand for the film will remain to be seen.

Look for more updates and more accurate weekend box office projections over the course of the weekend here at Newsarama.
