Warner Brothers latest foray into superhero movies is finally a raging success. Wonder Woman is a reboot of one of the lesser-known, modern-day heroines. The world was reintroduced to Diana, Princess of the Amazons in Batman versus Superman: Dawn of Justice back in 2016. But nothing could have prepared us for her go-it-alone caper in Wonder Woman.

Smart, strong, sexy, and sassy – Diana Prince is everything we’ve come to expect from a superhero. Her gallantry and noble attitude separates her from the rest of us. She fights for the underdog and does so with every ounce of her being. The movie’s production budget was $149 million, and from that, Gal Gadot received just $300,000. But it will do for her what Iron Man did for Robert Downey Jr. and make her a superstar of epic proportions.

A Step Up: Wonder Woman Re-invents Cool

The movie is a sharp contrast from the cheesy-style acting and effects of its predecessors. This Diana is fierce, bold and ready to unleash fury like the best of them. She puts her acting prowess against the rather comical antics of Chris Pine (of Star Trek fame) who is Captain Steve Trevor. Her and her family of God-like protectors are huddled away on an unseen island until a World War I fighter pilot crashes into the ocean. What follows is a search for Aries – the God of War, whom Diana believes is responsible for causing World War I and the immeasurable suffering that is going on.

So, she decides to leave the picturesque and tranquil island of Themyscira to help Steve defeat Aries. Little does she know that what she’s about to encounter is a pervasive evil in society. Our hero will not be deterred from unleashing the full force of her powers. The choreography of fight sequences is breathtaking and Gadot admitted to being bruised and battered while she was filming this epic blockbuster. Overall, the movie created yet another superhero, and is a fitting tribute to the 1975 classic TV series starring Lynda Carter as the inimitable Wonder Woman.

An Entertainment Goddess Comes to Your Screen

The film has spurred a massive secondary industry in figurines and Wonder Woman merchandise. When asked how much the Wonder Woman figurine should cost, Gal Gadot replied – ‘Argh… how much do you think? I dunno.’ Her name and likeness are emblazoned on girls’ toys, clothing, and at arcades around the world. Not surprisingly, the popularity of Wonder Woman has spread far and wide into the online entertainment arena. Video slots games about this dazzling superhero are already available, and players are lapping it up in their droves. A classic example is Wonder Woman Gold slot and Wonder Woman Jackpot slot where players get to push all the right buttons to get Wonder Woman to hit super-sized jackpots. With so much fanfare and hundreds of millions of dollars already racked up, it comes as no surprise that Wonder Woman is the hottest video slot game at casinos around the world.
