Superman is still flying high at the global box office, but its international numbers seem softer than expected. Despite pulling in $400 million so far, the film is underperforming outside of the U.S., and director James Gunn thinks part of it is lack of brand awareness, and real-world political strife. According to Gunn, Superman is just not as recognizable in some parts of the world as, say, Batman.
