The mall is the setting for an early heist scene, where Wonder Woman – whose day job is now at the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History in nearby Washington, D.C. – swings up and around three levels to take down a crew of jewelry-store robbers (whose plunder is no ordinary gem) and save a little girl.
“It’s just such a perfect location,” director Patty Jenkins says of Landmark, built in 1965 and operational until 2017. “And the fact that it was empty and we wouldn t be negotiating shutting down for hours, etc., we were blown away that we found it.”
Walking into the ground floor of what used to be a Macy’s, one soon encountered extras in teased hair and off-the-shoulder sweatshirts making their way into the mall proper for the big action scene.
Ariana DeBose spoke to
Glamour UK about coming out as queer and discrimination she has faced as an Afro-Latina. The actress, 29, who stars in Netflix s adaptation of
The Prom with Meryl Streep and Nicole Kidman, spent years on the Broadway stage, appearing in
Hamilton and earning a Tony nomination for
Summer: The Donna Summer Musical.
Even though she loved performing, she wasn t always confident about her appearance. I never felt pretty, she said. I equated beauty for a long time with what I saw on screen or on a television set. I never thought in a million years that I would end up in movies. I never thought I would be pretty enough to do it consistently.
