‘Superman’ flexes its might in second weekend with $57.3 million

AP News NEW YORK (AP) — James Gunn’s “Superman” showed staying power in its second weekend at North American box offices, collecting $57.3 million in ticket sales and remaining the No. 1 movie in cinemas, according to studio estimates Sunday.

In two weeks, “Superman” has grossed $406.8...
