Check out the opening credits of the classic Wonder Woman TV show if they featured footage from the new DC Extended Universe movie. By ScreenCrush.Link:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myNciMFcXoMThe Complex Gender Politics of the 'Wonder Woman' Movie (Date: 31 May 2017) Can Patty Jenkins make the superhero world safe for female directors? Warner Bros. gambles $150 million on its first woman-centered comic book movie with a filmmaker whose only prior big-screen credit was an $8 million indie: "I can't take on the history of 50 percent of the population just because I'm a woman." Also mentioned: And if it all goes according to plan, Jenkins is more than ready to return to the character for a contemporary-set Wonder Woman sequel (she and Gadot are contractually committed to a second film).Link:http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/features/complex-gender-politics-wonder-woman-movie-1008259‘Wonder Woman’ Powers $122.5M Offshore, $223M Global In Debut – International Box Office (Date: 04 June 2017) In her maiden outing, Warner Bros’ Wonder Woman dominated the international box office with $122.5M on 34,300 screens in 55 markets this weekend — and that’s without such major hubs as France, Germany and others. In overall terms overseas, the movie outperformed such key superhero comps as Thor 1 & 2, Iron Man 1 & 2, Guardians Of The Galaxy 1 & 2, Doctor Strange, Captain America 1 & 2, Man Of Steel and Ant-Man. The global cume on the Patty Jenkins-helmed DC pic is $223M.Link:http://deadline.com/2017/06/wonder-woman-opening-box-office-results-international-1202105707/‘Wonder Woman’ Breaks Glass Ceiling For Female Directors & Stomps On ‘Iron Man’ With $100.5M Debut – Sunday AM (Date: 04 June 2017) The warrior princess of Themyscira is finally leaping past the century mark this weekend with $100.5M according to Warner Bros. Wonder Woman easily beats the opening of the first Iron Man ($98.6M), though she still floats under the openings of such single (not team) superhero origin features as Deadpool ($132.4M), Man of Steel ($116.6M), and Spider-Man ($114.8M). Currently, Wonder Woman is the sixth best domestic opening at the June B.O, and second best for WB and DC after Man of Steel.
