The new 'Superman' movie, directed by James Gunn, had a successful debut, grossing $56.5 million in previews and an estimated $125 million for the weekend. With a 95% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, the film was criticized by MAGA followers for being 'woke', particularly for its characterization of Superman as an immigrant. The director used social themes, and some scenes were interpreted as references to current issues such as the Israel-Palestine conflict. Although there is controversy, the marketing campaign was well received, and the actors caught the public's attention.
