4. Wonder Woman:
Director: Patty Jenkins
Producer: Charles Roven
Release date: May 15th 2017
Cost to make: 150 million
Cost to advertise: 150 million
How much revenue did the film make: 700 million
5. -Production began on November 21, 2015 in the United Kingdom, France and
Italy.
-The film is not a franchise, it is considered a solo film.
-'Think of something like the highway chase in The Matrix Reloaded. Although
it’s not technically a superhero film, it’s an extended, computer-effects heavy
scene in which super-powered characters leap between and fight on top of fast-
moving vehicles. But to shoot it, the Wachowskis built an entire stretch of
highway on an old California naval base. There’s a lot that’s digitally enhanced or
even fully digitally created in that scene — some of the cars, for example, were
inserted via computer — but it draws some of its impact from its baseline reality.
The scene was shot on a real road, using a squad of real stunt cars, crashing and
smashing in ways that reflect real-world materials and physics.’ -

Bros. (2017) (USA) (theatrical)/ Warner Bros. Home
Entertainment (2017) (USA) (DVD) (Blu-Ray)
• -Advertisements on television, magazines and on billboards were
used. Warner Bros show their films in their own cinemas and use
other forms of media such as their own TV channels to promote the
film. They own all parts of the chain so make money from every part.

large cinematic companies such as Netflix, Sky films and Amazon

Special Features
Epilogue: Etta’s Mission
‘’The highly promoted “bonus scene” is just over two and a half minutes long and
features Etta Candy getting the boys back together to discuss a secret mission that
involves a Mother Box. It’s a nice little tease and set up for Justice League, and Etta
Candy gets to kick some butt!’’ - https://batman-news.com/2017/09/17/wonder-
woman-blu-ray-review/
Interesting detail: the smoke in the No Man’s Land scene was actually blue in real life.
Jenkins thought that it would look better on camera that way and look better against
the various costumes.
