Kroll announced the $500 million milestone with WB president of domestic distribution Dan Fellman and international distribution president Veronika Kwan Vandenberg.
"The film took Superman back to his roots for a new generation of moviegoers, who have once again embraced Krypton and Kansas' favorite son," Fellman said.
