In a second heroic feat, the film has also passed up Zack Snyder's solo Superman pic 'Man of Steel' and will soon overtake 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.'

According to the same report that revealed DC’s attempt to steal Kevin Feige from Marvel, the brass at Warner Bros. have set Superman’s worldwide financial goal post at a cool $500 million. That doesn’t look impossible, when looking at the $416.2 million haul, reported at the time of writing by Box Office Mojo.
