How far will fly away Superman ? Having known A rather good career in theaters This summer, James Gunn’s film benefited from a digital release on August 15 in the United States, just a month later.

According to figures of Samba TVwhich oversees devices of 48 million US households thanks to its technology, providing many data on what its users watch on television, the Superman by James Gunn was seen in 527,000 households across the Atlantic during his first three days of availability.

This score even climbs to 698,000 households in six days, making it the biggest success of a film in Pvod in the United States in 2025. As a reminder, the PVOD (or premium VOD) is the video on demand giving users the possibility of paying more for the early access of a film in streaming, before it arrives in classic VOD, then in SVOD (streaming by subscription).

Superman exceeds Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning (618,000 households in six days), Minecraft, the film (471,000), Thunderbolts (449,000) or Ballerina (344,000). It even does better than Deadpool & Wolverinewhich had been seen last year in 597,000 North American households in six days.

At $ 30 a digital copy of the film, such a plebiscite represents a considerable sum for Warner Bros, which is added to the entries of the feature film in theaters, or $ 614.3 million recorded at the world box office.

A success to temper, because if he has not achieved the result of Man of Steel (668 million), the film received excellent critical and public feedback and apparently allowed a profit of $ 125 million in Warner Bros. What convince the studio to announce a suite, Man of Tomorrowalready planned in the cinema for July 2027.
