Wonder Woman Tops Frozen With New Box Office Total
Wonder Woman continues to beat box office predictions, and the latest to fall to the Amazon comes from the house of mouse.
Wonder Woman has hit the $400.5 million mark as of yesterday, which means by the end of today it will surpass Disney's juggernaut Frozen in domestic box office (via Forbes). Frozen grossed $400,738,009 million domestically, so Wonder Woman will probably leave a bigger gap before it completely exits theaters.
Frozen was 26th on the all-time domestic box office list, so Wonder Woman will overtake that spot. Now, worldwide is a different story of course, as Frozen brought in over $1.2 billion worldwide. Wonder Woman is currently in the $795 million area, with a pretty even split between domestic and overseas. Frozen did over twice its domestic numbers overseas to hit that lofty total.
As for Wonder Woman's place on the all-time list, it can still overtake a few more films before it leaves for home video. The two most possible feats are Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen and the original Jurassic Park. Transformers sits at $402,111,870 million, while Jurassic Park sits at $402,453,882 million. The film doesn't hit digital release until August 29th, so it still has just under three weeks to close the gap.
As for films with a female lead, it puts it only behind The Hunger Games ($408 million), The Hunger Games: Catching Fire ($424 million), Finding Dory ($486 million), Beauty and the Beast ($504 million), Rogue One: A Star Wars Story ($532 million), Jurassic World ($652 million), Titanic ($658 million), and Star Wars: The Force Awakens ($936 million).
Wonder Woman currently enjoys an 84.64 on ComicBook.com's composite ranking. Wonder Woman hits digital release on August 29th and Blu-ray/DVD on September 19th.
