WONDER WOMAN Overtakes BATMAN V SUPERMAN To Become DCEU's Highest Domestic Grosser
It's official. Patty Jenkins' Wonder Woman has passed Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice to become the highest grossing DC Extended Universe movie at the United States box office. Come take a look!
She came. She saw. She conquered.
Wonder Woman is now officially the highest grossing DC Extended Universe film in the United States, surpassing the previous record holder, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. As of June 30th, the Patty Jenkins-directed superhero movie has grossed $330,529,475 at the domestic box office (in twenty-eight days, no less), which is just a hair above the $330,360,194 final gross of Zack Snyder's Batman v Superman.
Globally, the film has collected over $666.3 million heading into the holiday weekend and is expected by many trade analysts to clear at least $700 million, possibly $750 million, by the end of its box office run. As for its standing in the DCEU echelon, the film currently ranks fourth worldwide but should surpass the final total haul of Man of Steel ($668.0M) by the end of business today. However, passing BvS ($873.3) and Suicide Squad ($745.6M) will prove to be more of a challenge, but if it can manage to overcome lost screens and continues to hold strong through July, it does have an outside shot at toppling the latter, although with Marvel's Spider-Man: Homecoming and 20th Century Fox's War for the Planet of the Apes opening in subsequent weekends, it'll be much easier said than done.
So, what do you guys think? Sound off with your thoughts below!
Before she was Wonder Woman, she was Diana, princess of the Amazons, trained to be an unconquerable warrior. Raised on a sheltered island paradise, when an American pilot crashes on their shores and tells of a massive conflict raging in the outside world, Diana leaves her home, convinced she can stop the threat. Fighting alongside man in a war to end all wars, Diana will discover her full powers...and her true destiny.
