Low-budget ‘Clayface’ outperforms Warner’s $170M ‘Supergirl’ bet
The Ankler reports that Warner Bros.’ $30 million R-rated “Clayface” opened to $24 million, drawing an A-minus CinemaScore and an audience 73 percent under 35, offering a cheaper model after “Supergirl” opened to $38 million on a $170 million budget.
Why it matters. Studios weighing superhero slates now have a cheaper, lower-risk comp to point to than mega-budget tentpoles like “Supergirl.”
