THE BATMAN Long Range Box Office Projections Suggest A Huge Opening Weekend; New Promo Banner Released

We have some early box office projections for The Batman, and it looks like the movie has all the makings of a hit for Warner Bros. With that comes a very cool new banner showcasing Selina Kyle/Catwoman.

We're exactly one month away from The Batman arriving in theaters, and Box Office Pro has now weighed in with their early projections for the DC Comics movie. While a lot can change over the coming weeks, the site currently believes the reboot will debut anywhere between $135 million - $185 million during its opening weekend in North America. 

As for how much it could ultimately earn in total at the domestic box office, it's currently an estimated $340 million - $540 million. Needless to say, The Batman looks set to be the biggest hit since Spider-Man: No Way Home (for comparison's sake, Uncharted is eyeing an only okay $25 million - $35 million later this month). 

Providing reviews are positive and word of mouth is strong among moviegoers, the belief is that the movie could quite easily get closer to that $185 million figure, possibly even exceeding it. 

The only real disadvantage The Batman faces is its 2 hours, 55 minutes runtime. That limits the number of screens it can be shown on, but a similar runtime didn't hurt Avengers: Endgame so Warner Bros. is unlikely to be too worried on that front. With no simultaneous HBO Max release planned, there's no reason this movie can't be one of the biggest titles of 2022.

A new banner has also been released by Warner Bros. Mexico showcasing Zoe Kravitz's Catwoman.

The Batman is set to be released in theaters on March 4.

@XKnight - no. It’ll be Batman, Batman Returns, Batman begins, and Dark Knight. Never go past part 2, bad idea

@XKnight - Don't forget the launch of WB's inevitable new streaming service "Bat Max". Every scrap of Batman media ever produced, including motion comics, 24/7. Followed by the company's name change to "Bat Bros. (BB)" with the Batman symbol as the company logo. Okay, I might be stretching it a bit with that last one. Might.

@XKnight - “Morgan Freedman”

A decent fan poster brought down by misspelling.

Runtime doesn't matter to me, so I like longer runtimes personally. But for a first installment, you have to justify taking up this amount of time for people.

Could still go either way. Hope any comparisons to Nolans films are surface level and that this one really does do something new yet accurate. Lot of talk about this one being controversial.
