Warner Bros. Wonder Woman 1984.
As of early evening in Beijing, the Warner Bros./DC superhero film had earned only half as much as local action tentpole The Rescue.
Wonder Woman 1984 is off to a sluggish start in China.
The Warner Bros./DC superhero tentpole opened Friday in direct competition with Chinese action flick
The Rescue, directed by Dante Lam, and as of 5 p.m. in Beijing, the local favorite had staked out a commanding lead.
The Rescue s mid-evening total stood at $8.9 million and climbing, compared to just $4.6 (30 million RMB) for
WW 1984, according to an estimate from Artisan Gateway.
