‘Wonder Woman’ becomes box office force with $100.5m debut
“Wonder Woman” soars to a $100.5 million box office debut in North American theaters, making the Gal Gadot-starring, Patty Jenkins-directed superhero film the biggest opening ever for a movie directed by a woman.
According to studio estimates Sunday, the well-reviewed “Wonder Woman” surpasses industry expectations with one of the summer’s biggest debuts. Starring the Israeli Gadot as the Amazonian warrior, “Wonder Woman” is the rare female-led film in an overwhelmingly male superhero landscape.
It proves a hit with moviegoers, earning an A CinemaScore and, while skewing somewhat female, draws a fairly evenly split audience. Warner Bros. said 52 percent of the audience is female and 48% male.
