Having stormed into theaters just about two months ago,Patty Jenkins’Wonder Womanhas proven itself incredibly successful both critically and financially. Box office performance both at home and abroad has been quite strong and surprisingly even; the Warner Bros. film currently stands at over $395 million domestically and $393.4 million internationally. That’s enough to land it first among the four DCEU film’s domestically (both the raw figures and when adjusted for inflation) and second behindBatman v Supermanfor the all-time, worldwide total, even though it had the series' worst (relatively) opening weekend. And it’s still selling tickets.
So we were curious about howWonder Womanstacks up against cinematic superhero competition at large. The numbers are still fluid since the film is still in theaters–go see it now if you haven’t or see itagainif you have–but theGal Gadot-starrer has already made some impressive gains on all-time lists after just two months in theaters.
Here’s how things stack up at the all-time,worldwide box office:
Not bad! I’m not sure ifWonder Womanhas the legs to take downSpider-Man, which has a lead of roughly $33 million, but another ofSam Raimi’s movie records might be within range. Here’s the all-time domestic box office:
$9 million? Certainly possible. What’s also interesting here is just how many superhero films occupy the Top 50 and Top 100 box offices of all times, even though they’re all from just the last 15 years. (It’s almost as if superhero movies are lucrative…) Here’s howWonder Womanstacks up when compared toonly other superhero movies(all-time domestic tallies):
Where willWonder Womanland when the film’s theatrical run is said and done? And how will it compare toJustice Leaguewhen it arrives this November? We’ll be keeping track, so be sure to check back in with us at the year’s end!
