Due to high demand, on the first weekend confrontation between the characters of Ben Affleck and Henry Cavill brought the creators of the film $27.7 mln.

This is the best result for gala premieres Thursday of Easter weekend. The previous record belonged to the Thriller “fast & furious 7” ($15.8 million).

Recall last week when Affleck and Cavill decided to comment on the reaction of critics on their creation. “What really matters is the audience and said “Superman” Henry Cavill. – Because that’s what they buy tickets, they decide they want to see the continuation of this story or not. So the voice of the audience in this case is the loudest. And after this weekend, the viewers will be able to at least partially Express their opinion”.

Affleck was not loquacious, though, and fully supported the opinion of his colleague. “I agree”, said Ben.
