'Superman' lifts US box office with strong debut
Superman, the latest big-budget action film featuring the iconic DC superhero, powered to the top of the North American box office in its debut weekend with USD122 million in ticket sales, industry estimates showed Sunday. As per AFP, The Warner Bros. and DC Studios film - directed by James Gunn - stars up-and-comer David Corenswet as the Man of Steel, and The Marvelous Mrs Maisel star Rachel Brosnahan as his perennial love interest Lois Lane. "This is an outstanding domestic opening for the 7th episode in a superhero story that's been filmed for over 75 years," said analyst David A Gross of Franchise Entertainment Research. "Mr Gunn chose not to rely on big stars. The storytelling and filmmaking are doing the work here." Jurassic World: Rebirth - the latest installment in the blockbuster dinosaur saga - slipped to second place in its second week of release at USD40 million in the United States and Canada, Exhibitor Relations said. The Universal film, starring Scarlett Johansson, Jonathan Bailey and Mahershala Ali, takes viewers to an abandoned island research facility for the original Jurassic Park theme park, where secrets - and genetically mutated dinosaurs - are lurking. F1: The Movie, the Apple and Warner Bros. flick starring Brad Pitt as a washed-up Formula One driver who gets one last shot at redemption, took third place at USD13 million. How to Train Your Dragon, Universal and DreamWorks Animation's live-action reboot of the popular 2010 film, came in at fourth place with USD7.8 million. "It's summertime and the big pictures are loud and visually dazzling: Superman, Jurassic World, F1, and How to Train Your Dragon," Gross said. "Audiences want to be transported and taken away, and they're getting what they want." Disney/Pixar Animation's latest original film Elio, the story of a young boy who is mistaken by aliens as an intergalactic ambassador for Earth, finished up the top five with USD3.9 million.

Superman cast salary revealed: David Corenswet among lowest-paid superheroes, Nicholas Hoult walks away with mega paycheck
David Corenswet's earnings as Superman fall short by today's industry standards, when compared to what other Marvel and DC actors made in their first superhero roles. According to Puck News, it's Nicholas Hoult, who plays Lex Luthor in director James Gunn's Superman film, who is leading the pack with the highest salary of anyone in the cast. Made on a reported budget $225 million budget, Gunn's DC reboot has already raked in $22.5 million from box office previews. Also read: Superman movie review: James Gunn delivers Interstellar-level show-and-tell universe with a cute David Corenswet Hoult, who's already worked in the X-Men franchise, reportedly bagged $1.25 million more than Corenswet. As the main villain in Superman, he was paid $2 million, while David Corenswet (Superman) and Rachel Brosnahan (Lois Lane) each earned $750,000. But this isn't the first time a villain has out-earned a superhero. Christopher Reeve was paid $250,000 for the 1978 Superman movie. His Lex Luthor, Gene Hackman, took home $2 million. And Hoult's resume and longer career in Hollywood (two Golden Globe nominations, an Emmy nod) counts. Corenswet, on the other hand, is still new. Brosnahan, meanwhile, comes with an Emmy, two Globes for The Marvelous Mrs Maisel, and a solid background of indie and studio work. She also voiced one of the leads in Spies in Disguise alongside Will Smith and Tom Holland. Corenswet's biggest credits include The Politician and Hollywood, plus recent roles in Twisters and The Greatest Hits. If you stack Corenswet's paycheck next to others, Robert Downey Jr. was paid $500K for Iron Man in 2008, almost two decades ago. His fees skyrocketed as Marvel blew up. In 2011, Chris Evans got $300K for Captain America. Chris Hemsworth was paid just $150K for Thor the same year. Scarlett Johansson earned low seven-figures for Black Widow. On the DC side, Henry Cavill was paid $300K for Man of Steel (2013), same with Gal Gadot for Wonder Woman. Ben Affleck, though, thanks to his A-list status, reportedly made between $10–20 million for his Batman debut. Also read: Superman ending explained: What it means for new DCU movies and Peacemaker season 2 So, Corenswet isn't exactly underpaid by superhero debut standards. In fact, his $750K is higher than what Cavill, Evans, or Hemsworth took home for their first caped gigs. But if you look at more recent first-time leads like Brie Larson (Captain Marvel) or Ezra Miller (The Flash), who were paid $5 million and $3 million, respectively, then $750K starts to look pretty modest according to the current standard, especially for the guy carrying the weight of DC's reboot. Earlier, while speaking to CNN, Gunn said he's proud of finding breakout stars. 'I think I'm really good at finding people who become huge stars,' Gunn said. 'I think David Corenswet is the biggest movie star in the world—and people don't know it yet. That's exactly what I said about Chris Pratt early on, too. There are very, very few people who've got the acting chops, the comedy timing, and happen to be ridiculously handsome all at once.'
