Patty Jenkins was already reflecting on where she'll send our hero in future adventures when she spoke with them in April, saying, "The story will take place in the United States, which I think is right", she said.
DC's Wonder Woman has proven to be a global smash hit at the box office, as director Patty Jenkins' film has earned over $100 million in the United States in its first five days and $125 million internationally. On top of its already strong box office performance, Wonder Woman is also a great movie. "I mean, you made this movie what it is, and your love and support for this character and myself are not to be taken for granted", she continues. Moira MacDonald wrote for the Seattle Times that "Patty Jenkins" "Wonder Woman' is that rarity: a superhero movie with a heart".
' Wonder Woman' is enjoying a great run at the box-office and had a 103.3 million United States dollars opening at the U.S. Box Office, making it the first female directorial to touch that feat. Go get your tickets because this is one movie you want to see in the movie theater.
But the opening weekend for "Wonder Woman" is an achievement for female filmmakers and for the industry, says Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst at comScore. That makes it the biggest opening ever for a female director (beating out Sam Taylor-Johnson's $85.1 million opening for 2015's "Fifty Shades of Grey"). Patty Jenkins is contracted to direct the next installment of the franchise. The studio will begin negotiating a deal with Jenkins sometime soon, though it's not clear exactly when.

There is also $94.5 million pledged for an extra 400 prison beds at the Mid North Coast Correctional Centre in Kempsey . Roads spending across the state will total an estimated $72.7 billion over four years according to the Treasurer.
That huge pile of receipts busted the record for the highest-grossing opening weekend for a film directed by a woman.
One thing is for sure - Wonder Woman is the first unqualified success of the DCEU.
Wonder Woman was tracking to open around $65 million according to early projections-a solid but not over-the-moon number, and so WB wasn't too concerned with securing plans for a sequel just yet.
