It might have placed top of the North American box office, but “Justice League” didn’t have the super opening weekend predicted, falling short of expectations with takings of $93.8 million, according to data released Monday.
With an all-star cast including Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, Ben Affleck as Batman and Henry Cavill as Superman, “Justice League” — based on the DC Comics superheroes team — sees a mash-up of classic characters fend off the threat of supervillain Steppenwolf (Ciaran Hinds).
The big-budget Warner Bros. production — which fared better internationally, taking $185 million — was forecast to earn $110 million in North American cinemas, according to Variety.
