Even at over $700 million worldwide, Squad remains nearly $175 million short of BVS’ gargantuan $872 million worldwide gross.
As of this writing, Suicide Squad has now hauled in over $700 million worldwide, handily eclipsing the $668 million earned by Man of Steel over the course of its theatrical run.
Speaking of Man of Steel, Suicide Squad has now accomplished a feat some industry pundits initially thought wouldn’t be possible: it beat Superman.
Even if Suicide Squad manages to edge out BVS domestically as the most successful DCEU film to date, the chances of it doing that worldwide are much slimmer.
