That ranked as the highest domestic opening since the COVID pandemic shuttered theaters in March, though the numbers were a fraction of usual receipts for a big-budget action flick. The 2017 &#8220;<span class=\"highlight\" data-qa-component=\"highlight-text\">Wonder\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"highlight\" data-qa-component=\"highlight-text\">Woman<\/span>&#8221; film opened with $103.2 million domestically.<\/p>\n<p>With two-thirds of North American theaters closed, Warner Bros. opted for an unusual arrangement, making &#8220;WW84&#8221; available at the same time to U.S. customers of AT&amp;T&#8217;s HBO Max streaming service.<\/p>\n<p>Millions watched the film on HBO Max, the company said in a statement, but it did not specify how long they tuned in. Total viewing hours on the platform tripled on Friday compared with a typical day in the previous month, the statement said.<\/p>\n<p>The movie &#8220;exceeded our expectations across all of our key viewing and subscriber metrics in its first 24 hours on the service,&#8221; said Andy Forsell, executive vice president and general manager of WarnerMedia Direct-to-Consumer.<\/p>\n<p>Warner Bros. said it would accelerate development of a third &#8220;<span class=\"highlight\" data-qa-component=\"highlight-text\">Wonder\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"highlight\" data-qa-component=\"highlight-text\">Woman<\/span>&#8221; movie also written and directed by Patty Jenkins and starring Gal Gadot as the lasso-wielding warrior. The studio did not announce a release date.<\/p>\n<p>Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst at research firm Comscore, said &#8220;WW84&#8221; performed well in theaters given &#8220;an extremely challenging marketplace.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Considering the availability of this blockbuster film at home, the numbers for the theatrical debut of &#8216;WW 1984&#8217; should actually be encouraging to theatrical exhibition,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;WW84&#8221; faced competition from critically praised Pixar animated movie &#8220;Soul,&#8221; which Walt Disney Co delivered to the Disney+ streaming service and some theaters overseas. The story of a music teacher seeking his life&#8217;s purpose took in $7.6 million in theaters, Disney said. It did not disclose how many people watched &#8220;Soul&#8221; via streaming.<\/p>\n<p>Warner Bros. has announced the same hybrid release strategy for its 17 theatrical movies in 2021, sparking a backlash from some top Hollywood directors and cinema operators, who hope for a rebound after COVID-19 vaccinations increase.<\/p>\n<p>Through Sunday, 2020 domestic box office receipts totaled $2.3 billion, down 80 percent from a year earlier, according to Comscore.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Wonder\u00a0Woman\u00a01984&#8243;
