The budget for the Supergirl<\/a> DCU<\/a> movie has been revealed.<\/p>\n

DC Studios<\/a> and Warner Bros. Pictures<\/a>\u2019 Supergirl arrives in United States theaters next summer. Directed by Craig Gillespie<\/a>, the film will see Milly Alcock<\/a> play the titular superhero, while Matthias Schoenaerts stars as Krem of the Yellow Hills.<\/p>\n

What is the budget for the Supergirl DCU movie?<\/p>\n

According to a recent report from Forbes<\/a>, Supergirl has a $200 million budget. That\u2019s slightly below James Gunn\u2019s Superman<\/a> movie, as that reportedly had a budget of $225 million.<\/p>\n

How Supergirl does at the box office remains to be seen. Superman made a good chunk of money, as it collected approximately $616.7 million globally while also going up against some heavy competition from Jurassic World Rebirth and The Fantastic Four: First Steps. Supergirl is being released the week after Toy Story 5 and just a couple of days before Minions 3, meaning all bets are off when it comes to how much it\u2019s able to rake in.<\/p>\n

In addition to Alcock and Schoenaerts, the cast of Supergirl includes Eve Ridley as Ruthye Marye Knoll, David Krumholtz as Zor-El, Emily Beecham as Alura In-Ze, Jason Momoa as Lobo, and Ferdinand Kingsley as Elias Knoll.<\/p>\n

The film is based on the Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow comic miniseries by Tom King and Bilquis Evely. The solicitation for the first issue of that series reads, \u201cKara Zor-El has seen some epic adventures over the years, but finds her life without meaning or purpose. Here she is, a young woman who saw her planet destroyed and was sent to Earth to protect a baby cousin who ended up not needing her. What was it all for? Wherever she goes, people only see her through the lens of Superman\u2019s fame. Just when Supergirl thinks she\u2019s had enough, everything changes. An alien girl seeks her out for a vicious mission. Her world has been destroyed, and the bad guys responsible are still out there. She wants revenge, and if Supergirl doesn\u2019t help her, she\u2019ll do it herself, whatever the cost. Now a Kryptonian, a dog, and an angry, heartbroken child head out into space on a journey that will shake them to their very core.\u201d<\/p>\n
