‘Black Adam’ has set an electrifying box office record for Dwayne Johnson

Haters might be hating but Dwayne Johnson is laughing all the way to the bank. His entry into the DC Extended Universe, Black Adam, smashed through the box office like Johnson’s mystically powered antihero smashes through walls, earning $7.6 million in previews at 3,500 locations across the country.

That’s a new personal high for Johnson, easily one of the world’s biggest and most marketable action stars. The new mark beats out his prior preview performances, edging out  Fast and Furious 6 ($7.5 million), Hobbs and Shaw ($5.8 million), Jumanji: The Next Level ($4.7 million), San Andreas ($3.1 million), and Rampage ($2.4 million). The high take is a great sign for the latest DCEU vehicle and indicates the nascent franchise may just have some super-powered legs despite a somewhat tepid critical reception.
