Gal Gadot's 'Wonder Woman' Still Rules Box Office

Diana, also known as Wonder Woman, meets a male pilot in the midst of World War I who tells her of the horrors of war ravaging the rest of the world.

It appears that The Mummy reboot may be cursed from the start, failing to impress at the weekend box office, and proving no match for Diana Prince and the Amazons in Patty Jenkins' DCEU film, Wonder Woman.

Wonder Woman fully lives up to her name - and delivers a must see for big screen adventure with wide appeal.

After hopes were high that Wonder Woman and its $103.3 million domestic opening would reinvigorate a so far sad summer movie schedule, we are back to a reality that has plagued us all season long - poorly made films that audiences haven't wanted.

"Wonder Woman" easily bested the domestic debut of "The Mummy", the kickoff of Universal's "Dark Universe" series of revived classic monster-movie villains.

Wonder Woman Gal Gadot has been winning hearts all over the world, and people just can't stop crushing over her good looks and curvaceous body.

The DC Extended Universe hasn't gotten off to the best start especially after failing with Batman vs Superman and Suicide Squad past year, but along came Wonder Woman which has not only set a new standard for future DC films but also female superhero solo films. As yet, there's no word on a release date, but you can make sure you get your hands on a copy of the box set by pre-ordering via Amazon US or Amazon UK... "That scene was just a slightly tense scene of them walking". Taghmaoui said "I'm really blessed to had a chance to work with these awesome director.!" She said the pressure placed on Jenkins and Gadot is "giving the stereotype of, 'Oh, yeah, this one woman has to represent all women, ' and that's not how that works". Given the film was meant to launch a whole extended universe of monster films - called the Dark Universe - it's not exactly great news for Universal. "One who is self-confident is not afraid of movies - even if it's "Wonder Woman" standing before him", he added. The film stars Gal Gadot (Diana Prince/Wonder Woman), Chris Pine (Steve Trevor), Robin Wright (General Antiope), Connie Nielsen (Queen Hippolyta), David Thewlis, Elena Anaya, Lucy Davis (Etta Candy), Danny Huston, Ewen Bremmer, Doutzen Kroes, Samantha Jo (Euboea), Florence Kasumba (Senator Acantha), Said Taghmaoui, Eleanor Matsuura (Epione), Emily Carey (Young Diana), and Lisa Loven Kongsli (Menalippe).

There's no telling what kind of bonus features Wonder Woman will house when it hits shelves, but don't expect there to be any deleted scenes.
