The irony is, while Wonder Woman has the lowest opening weekend of the four DCEU films, including Man of Steel, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Suicide Squad, it held so well from week to week that it ultimately out-grossed its predecessors domestically, becoming the first DCEU movie to cross $400 million at the U.S. box office.
The opening weekend tally would make it the second highest of all DCEU movies, behind the $166 million debut of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, with the domestic take also the second largest among DCEU movies, behind the $411.6 million of Wonder Woman.
For what it’s worth, the same long range forecast puts Thor: Ragnarok at $100 million opening weekend and $250 million overall domestic, but Thor: Ragnarok’s third weekend could still cut into the Justice League opening weekend.
Now, with early Justice League reactions coming in quite positive, the first box office projection is pegging the superhero ensemble at a $150 million debut.
