EPIC: Wonder Woman just blew past Batman, Superman and Suicide Squad at the box office
We can now safely surmise that Wonder Woman has exceeded both Batman v Supermanand Suicide Squad at the domestic (North American) box office as of Thursday, making it the biggest hit Warner Bros. has produced from its DC stable, according to estimates provided by ComScore.
Wonder Woman became WB/DC's top grosser in just four weeks of release, beating out the entire 14-week run of Suicide Squad earlier this week, then zooming past Batman v Superman just before the weekend. All the more estimable when you realize that Wonder Woman's opening weekend ($103 million) was significantly lower — meaning its high qualityand great word-of-mouth have given it powerful legs.
The breakdown:
- Wonder Woman (4 weeks): $325,083,830 (through Tuesday), earning more than $3 million daily on average this week, for an estimated $331 million to $332 million
- Batman v Superman (12 weeks): $330 million
- Suicide Squad (14 weeks): $325 million
- Man of Steel (14 weeks): $291 million
Even if things slowed down mid-week, Wonder Woman will have the domestic box-office title very much in the bag by the first matinees of Friday, and be pulling away all holiday weekend. We're probably another month (or less) away from Wonder Woman passing the previous DC films' world-wide grosses — now at $660 million or so and counting — but that's inevitable, too.
