Summary The many Superman movies have had varying degrees of success at the box office, but how do they rank among one another when adjusted for inflation? The box office performance of Superman movies has often been at the forefront of superhero cinema. Richard Donner's Superman arguably kickstarted the so-called Golden Age of superhero movies, while franchises like the DCEU positioned the Man of Steel at the center of a sprawling franchise.
1 6 Superman IV: The Quest for Peace - 1987 The Fourth Christopher Reeve Superman Film Is The Lowest-Grossing When Adjusted For Inflation Close The lowest-grossing Superman movie in history is Superman IV: The Quest for Peace. The film was critically panned upon release, which likely contributed to its poor box office performance. As per numbers gathered by Box Office Mojo, Superman IV: The Quest for Peace garnered a measly $15 million gross domestically.
That being said, Superman III still earned almost double what Superman IV would go on to garner. A domestic total of just under $60 million and an overseas haul of $20 million saw Superman III earn a worldwide total of $80 million in 1983. Given that it came out before Superman IV, the inflation rate for Superman III's earnings is bigger.
