The Wonder Woman franchise isn’t going anywhere.
Despite a limited theatrical release, lukewarm reviews and social media chatter that can be best described as polarizing, “Wonder Woman 1984” opened to $16.7 million domestically at the box office this past weekend, beating all other three-day 2020 pandemic releases and boosting its worldwide total to $85 million. The film also debuted simultaneously on HBO Max and was viewed by nearly half of the streaming service’s subscribers on the day of arrival according to the Hollywood Reporter.
