Patty Jenkins and Gal Gadot Power Wonder Woman To Historic $228m Opening

Thanks to a mighty $103m domestic take, and an even more impressive $125m haul overseas, Patty Jenkins' Wonder Woman has enjoyed the highest grossing opening ever for a female director. The film easily topped the previous domestic record holder, Fifty Shades of Grey's Sam Taylor-Johnson, whose film grossed $85m back in 2015. The international total of $228m surpasses other super hero films including the first two Thor and Iron Man movies, both installments of Guardians of the Galaxy, and

Superman: Man of Steel.
