Supergirl suffered a crash landing in theaters with a $68 million opening weekend at the global box office.The new DCU film scooped up just $38 million domestically and about $30 million internationally. It's a split that puts the Milly Alcock superhero movie below expectations, which had Warner Bros. and DC Studios hoping to pull in $50 million across 3,600 North American theaters in its first weekend.Those early projections already set a low bar for the Supergirl movie despite its position as a highly anticipated follow-up to 2025's Superman. Adding insult to injury is the film's budget, which, according to Deadline, is between $170 million and $186 million, before marketing costs. A disappointing start means the project faces a long road before it can even think about breaking even as the DCU works through what seems to be its first letdown in theaters.Poor performance at the box office could be a result of the film's reception. Critics and fans alike aren't quite sure how to feel about Supergirl, with review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes showing a 56% score for the latter while the former carries a higher rating of 77%. Most opening weekend reactions say Alcock's Kara Zor-El and the movie's use of practical effects are worthy of praise, while others struggled to connect with the overall story. Hideo Kojima, at least, seemed to like it.IGN gave Supergirl a 6/10 review ahead of its June 26 premiere. We said, Supergirl borrows from the best, but Milly Alcock’s great take on Kara Zor-El gets lost in the spare parts from other movies used to assemble her story. The breakdown landed the Kryptonian icon in the number two spot at the box office, falling in second to Disney's Toy Story 5. The long-running Pixar franchise maintained its top spot with a $70 million domestic haul in its second weekend. That's a 56% drop from its mid-June premiere, with its domestic and worldwide totals now sitting at $297.2 million and $585 million, respectively.Other domestic highlights from the weekend include yet another strong weekend for Obsession, which came comfortably in third with $9.8 million after more than a month and a half in theaters, bringing its worldwide total to an unbelievable $370.109 million. Jackass: Best and Last, which also released June 26, accumulated $8.4 million across its 2,885 North American theaters and landed in fourth. Disclosure Day came in fifth with $8.1 million after its third weekend.For more on Supergirl, you can read our exploration of the debate at the heart of the film.

80.4% of 2025 vehicles had a grayscale color such as white, black, silver or gray. The only fun color to crack into the top five was blue with a 9.1% market share. Sports cars are most likely to have colorful paint jobs, while trucks are the least. Automakers have embraced colorful designs as blue interiors are coming back and bright hues are being added to numerous models. These are interesting developments, but we sadly live in a grayscale world. var adpushup = window.adpushup = window.adpushup || {que:[]}; adpushup.que.push(function() { if (adpushup.config.platform !== "DESKTOP"){ adpushup.triggerAd("0f7e3106-c4d6-4db4-8135-c508879a76f8"); } else { adpushup.triggerAd("82503191-e1d1-435a-874f-9c78a2a54a2f"); } }); That s clear in a new study from iSeeCars, which examined the most popular exterior colors for 2025. White dominated with a 25.7% share, while black and gray weren t far behind at 23.4% and 22.9%, respectively. Adding silver into the mix means grayscale colors accounted for 80.4% of vehicles last year. More: Want A Car That Won t Depreciate Fast?

Remaining colors are basically insignificant as brown and beige had a 0.4% market share in 2025, while orange followed at 0.1%. A number of once reasonably popular colors have faded away over the past three decades, as gold and purple are down nearly 100%. Brown and green saw declines of around 84%, while beige dropped 73.8%. iSeeCars On the flip side, gray saw a huge 528.4% increase, while black jumped 64.5%. White even got 16.7% more popular, despite already being the most picked hue in 1996. The study from iSeeCars also found the percentage of grayscale trucks jumped from 43.4% in 1996 to 83.5% last year. That was the largest move toward grayscale colors of any vehicle category. iSeeCars Sports cars were the most colorful vehicles around as only 63.6% of them were grayscale last year. Blue had a 15.5% market share, while red clocked in at 10.8%.

One of the most plausible is that grayscale colors are widely accepted by consumers, so dealerships order a majority of vehicles in boring hues. Needless to say, it s far easier to find a buyer for a black or white truck versus something more exotic like green or purple, so this clearly plays a significant role too. var adpushup = window.adpushup = window.adpushup || {que:[]}; adpushup.que.push(function() { if (adpushup.config.platform !== "DESKTOP"){ adpushup.triggerAd("bb7964e9-07de-4b06-a83e-ead35079d53c"); } else { adpushup.triggerAd("9b1169d9-7a89-4971-a77f-1397f7588751"); } }); Most Popular Truck Colors by Market Share RankColor20251996% Change1White33.6%27.0%24.6%2Black23.4%9.7%141.8%3Gray19.2%3.4%464.9%4Red7.6%21.4%-64.7%5Silver7.3%3.3%118.4%6Blue6.3%12.6%-50.3%7Green1.0%14.5%-92.8%8Brown0.9%3.7%-76.2%9Orange0.4%0.0%681.6%10Beige0.3%1.0%-66.5%11Yellow0.0%0.2%-93.6%12Gold0.0%1.5%-99.5%13Purple0.0%0.3%-99.3%Grayscale colors*83.5%43.4%92.4%Non-grayscale colors16.5%55.3%-70.2% SWIPE Most Popular SUV Colors by Market Share RankColor20251996% Change1White25.1%22.2%12.8%2Black23.4%14.5%61.5%3Gray21.9%4.0%444.7%4Blue9.5%8.8%8.4%5Silver8.9%3.1%189.7%6Red6.8%17.5%-61.0%7Green2.9%21.3%-86.4%8Brown0.5%3.8%-86.7%9Beige0.5%1.7%-73.2%10Orange0.3%0.3%-10.0%11Yellow0.1%0.2%-28.4%12Gold0.1%1.3%-95.7%13Purple0.0%0.4%-94.6%Grayscale colors*79.3%43.8%80.9%Non-grayscale colors20.7%55.2%-62.6% SWIPE Most Popular Passenger Car Colors by Market Share RankColor20251996% Change1Gray28.4%3.8%652.1%2Black23.7%17.5%35.0%3White21.2%17.8%19.2%4Blue9.9%9.1%9.3%5Silver7.4%11.2%-34.3%6Red7.1%20.2%-64.7%7Green1.0%10.1%-89.6%8Beige0.5%2.1%-78.0%9Orange0.2%0.4%-41.8%10Yellow0.2%0.4%-50.4%11Brown0.1%2.3%-94.1%12Purple0.1%1.1%-88.7%13Gold0.0%3.3%-98.7%Grayscale colors*80.7%50.3%60.4%Non-grayscale colors19.3%48.9%-60.6% SWIPE Most Popular Sports Car Colors by Market Share RankColor20251996% Change1Gray21.2%3.0%598.0%2Black20.9%20.5%1.9%3White16.6%14.1%17.4%4Blue15.5%9.9%56.7%5Red10.8%23.4%-54.1%6Silver4.9%17.4%-71.9%7Green4.5%7.5%-40.3%8Yellow2.3%1.0%142.5%9Purple1.8%1.2%52.1%10Orange0.8%0.6%38.6%11Brown0.2%0.4%-60.9%12Gold0.2%0.3%-37.2%13Beige0.1%0.3%-44.1%Grayscale colors*63.6%55.0%15.5%Non-grayscale colors36.2%44.5%-18.7% SWIPE
