Justice League finally blasts into theaters this weekend and the signs are currently pointing to the movie having a huge debut at the worldwide box office. Deadline believes that the DC Comics adaptation will debut with $110 million - $120 million at the US box office and anywhere from $215 million - $235 million overseas. That means a worldwide debut of $325 million - $355 million.
This means it will debut well above the likes of Suicide Squad and Deadpool but it remains to be seen whether or not it will have a strong start akin to Batman v Superman and then plummet in week two.
The trade believes that Justice League could overperform thanks to the excitement surrounding Wonder Woman, particularly with female moviegoers who wouldn't necessarily flock to see a movie like this under other circumstances. China is obviously going to help in a big way too and the only real obstacle in Justice League's path is Thor: Ragnarok which is still performing strongly all over the world.
