Warner moves ‘Wonder Woman’ release up to early June 2017
Many fans loved Wonder Woman in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Warner Bros. just announced they’re pushing up the Princess of Themyscira’s solo film by a couple of weeks.
As reported by THR, Diana Prince/Wonder Woman will now arrive in theaters on June 2, 2017, instead of her original release date of June 23, 2017.
Warner offered no reason as to the change, but now Wonder Woman avoids squaring off against Transformers 5. While never a favorite of critics, the giant robot slugfest films have been huge box office successes.
Moving two weeks back, Wonder Woman now faces Kingsmen: The Golden Circle for adults and Cars 3 for kids.
Set to open on June 2, 2017, where Wonder Woman will square off against Captain Underpants and Bad Boys III.
Gal Gadot will reprise her role introduced in BvS alongside Star Trek star Chris Pine and Danny Huston, Robin Wright, David Thewlis, Ewen Bremner, Said Taghmaoui, Elena Anaya, Connie Nielsen and Lucy Davis.
Patty Jenkins (Monster) is directing Wonder Woman with a script from Jason Fuchs (Pan) and William M. Marston (Batman: The Brave and the Bold, Justice League: The New Frontier).
The film is being produced by Charles Roven, Zack Snyder and Deborah Snyder, with Richard Suckle, Stephen Jones, Wesley Coller, Geoff Johns and Rebecca Roven serving as executive producers.
