Wonder Woman breaks another box office record

Wonder Woman is now officially the highest grossing superhero origin story of all-time, topping out at $821.74 million and beating the previous record holder Sam Raimi’s 2002 Spider-Man.

As Warner Bros. begins to ramp up its Oscars campaign, by pushing Wonder Woman in all major awards categories, Gal Gadot’s first solo DC movie has proved itself to be the saviour of both the DC Extended Universe, and the otherwise lacklustre box office of summer 2017.

2017’s Wonder Woman, stormed the summer slate and took a giant slice of the global box office in a year that had already seen the release of The LEGO Batman Movie, Logan, Power Rangers, and Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol 2.
