March 29, 2016: "Batman v Superman" Earns $15 Million on Monday

IMAX Poster Forbes.com reports that "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" has had a bumper Monday, earning $15.05 million.

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice has earned $15.05 million on its first Monday. That brings the film's four-day domestic total to $181.057m. That's the 30th biggest Monday ever, the 20th-biggest "day four" Monday, and the 12th biggest non-holiday Monday of all time. As we go through this, the two factors are the size of the gross and the extent to which the film dropped from Sunday to Monday. Both are actually pretty encouraging.

    Said Monday gross is way above the $12.585 million that Man of Steel earned on its first Monday. And that's down a genuinely solid 55% from its $33.7m Sunday gross. For comparison's sake, Furious 7 earned $14m (-57%) on its first Monday following a $147m Easter weekend, while The Hunger Games earned $10.6m (-69%) following its $152m debut weekend on this same frame four years ago.

"Batman v Superman" has already beat out its competition, like "Captain America: The First Avenger" ($176 million), "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" ($179.8m), "Ant-Man" ($181m) and "Thor" ($181.03m). The film is projected to earn $220m at the domestic box office by the time it closes its first week.
