Recently, CBR.com shared a report about Warner Bros. accusing Dwayne Johnson of sharing inaccurate profits online. The report said, according to Puck’s Matt Belloni, “several Warners executives” believe that “Team Dwayne Johnson” shared the amount with Deadline.

This was to counter the news of the DCEU losing between $50 and $100 million through Black Adam. Belloni also stated that the report was “filled with false assumptions”. Also, in the long run, “nearly all movies of this size will ultimately pencil out after every window is exhausted over years and years.”

Black Adam collected revenue of $389 million as this article is written, which is close to $400 million. Several critics and the studio hopes to touch the $400 million mark this month. The current box-office collection is of seven weeks after the film was released.
