Joker is expected to become the highest-grossing comic book movie in DC history

Warner x DC's latest masterpiece "Joker" has not only received explosive word-of-mouth and won many awards, but also has been a box office success. Now some foreign media predict that "Joker" is expected to become the highest-grossing comic-based movie in DC's history.

Deadline, a well-known foreign film media, said that after the theatrical release, video on demand and home entertainment, "Joker" may make a profit of more than 464 million US dollars. If the global box office can exceed 900 million US dollars, the minimum profit figure will rise. This result is close to "Avengers 3" (profit of 500 million US dollars), "Black Panther" (476.8 million), and far exceeds "Aquaman" (260.5 million) and "Wonder Woman" (252.9 million).

At the same time, Deadline also said that "Joker" is also an example of a small bet with a big payoff, with few CG special effects and a production cost of about $70 million (not yet officially announced, with different sources saying otherwise). The current global box office is $745 million, and it is expected to surpass "Deadpool 2" which has a global box office of $785 million, becoming the highest-grossing R-rated movie in film history.
