Birds of Prey and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn is on top at the box office, but below studio expectations.

The Cathy Yan-directed film debuted at No. 1 at the box office, pulling in $33.3 million across 4,236 theaters as of Sunday (February 8) according to Deadline.

This marks one of the lowest modern debuts for a superhero film, according to the report.

The Margot Robbie-led film was originally expected to debut somewhere between $50-55 million. At the same time, it was never expected to pull in massive numbers due to being a spinoff, and having an R rating.

Prior to Birds of Prey, the lowest DC Extended Universe film was Shazam! with $53 million.

There was an indication earlier in the weekend that the film was not performing as expected. Find out what happened…
