It didn't do much better internationally either, with an estimated worldwide opening weekend gross of $68 million.

That's not a great sign for James Gunn's fledgling DCU. It generally wasn't a great week for new movies, as Jackass: Best and Last only made $8.4 million, albeit on a much lower budget than Supergirl.
