‘Supergirl’ Projected To Flop After Star Bragged About ‘P***ing Off’ Christian Dads


With more people staying home to watch movies and the cinematic landscape completely saturated with superhero slop, it would seem counterproductive for the stars of these projects to deliberately choose the most divisive rhetoric possible.

But time and again, that appears to be the strategy of leftist entertainers, including a recent example involving the start of the upcoming “Supergirl” film.

Fox News provided these details:

“Supergirl” hits theaters on June 26 in the U.S., and star Milly Alcock seems to have made it her mission to be as divisive as possible. In March, Alcock gave an interview claiming she’s been the target of criticism for “simply existing as a woman” in a superhero movie.

“It definitely made me aware that simply existing as a woman in that space is something that people comment on,” she told Vanity Fair. “We have become very comfortable having this weird ownership of women’s bodies. I can’t really stop them. I can only be myself.” 

Then, when receiving criticism for the absurd remark, she doubled down in a recent Variety interview entitled “Milly Alcock’s Supergirl Interview: Sexism, Superheroes, and More.”

“I didn’t even say ‘men’ — I said ‘people!’” she said. “And they got so angry. I was like, ‘You’re proving my point. You’re proving my point!’”

She also claimed she’s “pi***** off” the right people, including those who identify as a “Christian” and “Dad.”

“And it’s from a lot of people whose profiles have no photo, who are burner accounts,” Alcock said. “Or someone’s name and then ‘Dad of four, Christian,’ which is hilarious to me.”

Well, based on how the film is tracking, “Supergirl” is about to prove the point many Hollywood critics are making: they don’t know what they’re doing and keep making the same predictable mistakes.

Latest estimates from Box Office Theory put the film’s opening weekend between $47 million and $65 million, which would be, to put it mildly, a disaster. Production costs were estimated at around $175 million, with marketing likely to exceed $75 million. Given the traditional 50/50 split between studios and theaters, that’s a break-even point of $500 million at the domestic box office.

As much as Hollywood might want to deny it, Christian dads make up a large number of their potential audience, as do men and women of all backgrounds who are looking for entertainment instead of a lecture.

And that assessment was clear from the social media reaction:

Page Six added these details:

To break even, “Supergirl” needs to make around $425 million worldwide, far less than Box Office Theory’s $350 million global estimation.

By comparison, Gunn’s “Superman” starring David Corenswet opened to $125 domestically in July 2025 and ended its theatrical run with $618 million worldwide. It cost around $325 million to make and promote.

The predicted “Supergirl” box office crisis isn’t helped by the stiff competition the film is facing. 

Disney’s “Toy Story 5” comes out one week earlier, on June 19, and is expected to have a $130 million to $160 million domestic opening and $465 million to $600 million domestic total.

Here’s some additional commentary on her remarks:
