Advance tickets for the upcoming DCU film Supergirl went on sale this week through U.S. ticketing platforms such as Fandango [1], [2].
The release marks a critical step in the ongoing reboot of the DC Universe. As one of the first major entries under the new leadership of DC Studios, the film's commercial performance will serve as a barometer for audience interest in the studio's revised creative direction.
James Gunn, the co-chief of DC Studios, said the tickets were available via Instagram [1], [2]. The film is directed by Craig Gillespie and is based on the graphic novel "Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow," written by Tom King and illustrated by Bilquis Evely [1], [5].
The movie is scheduled to open in theaters on June 26, 2026 [1]. This theatrical window places the film in the competitive summer movie season, where high-budget spectacles typically vie for the largest share of the domestic market.
Industry projections suggest the film is eyeing a U.S. opening box-office return of $55 million or more [2], [4]. This estimate reflects the anticipated demand for the character's introduction into the new cinematic continuity.
Promotional efforts have intensified alongside the ticket launch. The studio has released an extended TV spot and five new posters to build momentum before the June premiere [3]. These materials highlight the film's visual style and its departure from previous iterations of the character.
