Currently, the movie that leads the box office collections around the world is the acclaimed ‘Barbie‘, however, this could be faced with a challenge after the premiere of the DC movie titled ‘Blue Beetle‘ that only in its preview, on August 16th, raised a sum of 3.3 million dollars.
Although in these weeks it could see a battle between these films, both from the Warner production company, ‘Barbie’ is about to leave the big screen, giving way to ‘Blue Beetle’ to become the next blockbuster, getting a lot of public attention and raising a lot of money in its first weekend.
For their part, film experts have stated that with the great acceptance received by the superhero production of DC comics, it could generate an approximate of 25 and 35 million dollars in its first weekend at the box office, this being a good start for the movie and that it wasn’t even ‘Barbie’ reached.
“Jaime Reyes finds himself in possession of an ancient relic of alien biotechnology called the Scarab. When the Scarab chooses Jaime as a symbiotic host, he gives him armor with extraordinary and unpredictable powers“, is the official synopsis of the film directed by Ángel Manuel Soto.
So far, ‘Blue Beetle’ is the third DC production to be released this year 2023, and it has exceeded expectations by surpassing its predecessors, which have been ‘Shazam 2‘ and ‘The Flash‘, giving indications that it will be the best premiere of this superhero franchise this year.
