BOX OFFICE: Early Forecast Predicts WONDER WOMAN Will Have A Massive Opening Weekend
April has just begun, but box office analysts are already looking ahead to the summer and they've released a long range forecast for Wonder Woman, which predicts a massive opening weekend!
Even though June is still two months away, early box office forecasts are pointing to a huge opening weekend in North America for the highly anticipated Wonder Woman origin story from director Patty Jenkins.
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Suicide Squad were projected to open with $154 million and $98 million, respectively, before they went on to exceed expectations with $166 million and $133 million. Those films later went on to be major successes for both Warner Bros. and DC.
Wonder Woman is now being forecasted to have an opening weekend of around $83 million, which is a very similar amount to Logan and Doctor Strange. The Gal Gadot-led film is also predicted to finish with an overall domestic total of $225 million.
It is still in very early and a lot can change between now and June, but the marketing campaign for Wonder Woman has yet to go into full blast. The actual opening weekend could differentiate significantly as these are just very early estimates from one reputable source and not actual projections based on tracking data.
How much do you see Wonder Woman making? The movie comes to theaters on June 2.
