“Wonder Woman” was the highest-grossing film of summer 2017 with US$412.5 million (RM1.7 billion) at the US box office, and US$821.8 million worldwide.
The Patty Jenkins-directed sequel to 2017’s big hit “Wonder Woman,” starring Gal Gadot, will no longer land Nov 1, 2019, but seven months later on June 5, 2020.
Star Gal Gadot took to Twitter to announce the change, adding, “Be there or be square!!!”.
In a statement, domestic distribution head Jeff Goldstein said: “We had tremendous success releasing the first Wonder Woman film during the summer so when we saw an opportunity to take advantage of the changing competitive landscape, we did.
“This move lands the film exactly where it belongs.”
