Gal Gadot in Wonder Woman.Clay Enos—Warner Bros. Entertainment/AP  by [Eliana Dockterman](https://time.com/author/eliana-dockterman/)  ## Eliana Dockterman Correspondent Jul 23, 2017 4:42 PM UTC Wonder Woman took her victory lap at [San Diego Comic-Con](http://time.com/4853722/comic-con-2017-movies-television/) this weekend. And it was oh, so sweet. Star Gal Gadot has been building up hype for _Wonder Woman_ at this [convention](http://time.com/4866403/comic-con-2017-trailers/) for years. Two years ago, when she joined the _Batman v. Superman_ team onstage, she told a young boy who said he’d been bullied for wearing a Wonder Woman t-shirt that he was even more of a man for embracing Wonder Woman. Last year, she and director Patty Jenkins [dropped the first trailer](http://time.com/4420538/wonder-woman-trailer-comic-con/) for _Wonder Woman_ to a rapturous reception. The trailer came on the heels of _Batman v. Superman_ release, and while that was a [critical flop](http://time.com/4268724/batmanvsuperman-review-movie-ben-affleck-henry-cavill/), critics and audiences agreed that Wonder Woman’s brief cameo in the movie (and that guitar solo that accompanied her) was a highlight. Sure, _Wonder Woman_ still had to prove that it could break from DC’s dour universe, but anyone who attended last year’s convention knew that _Wonder Woman_ was the most-anticipated movie of this year just based on the decibel of the screams when that trailer played. Still, there was a good deal of hand wringing over what would happen if _Wonder Woman_ flopped: Would studios be willing to make other female-led superhero and action films again or would they write women off altogether, as they did when _Catwoman_ and _Elektra_ fell flat a decade ago? But one year later, _Wonder Woman_ is now the [highest-grossing movie](http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/wonder-woman-sequel-confirmed%5Fus%5F59741f66e4b00e4363dff4d9) in the DC cinematic universe, raking in $670.68 million so far. Turns out, Wonder Woman can best the boys. **READ:** [Wonder Woman Breaks Through](http://time.com/4606107/wonder-woman-breaks-through/) At the Warner Bros. panel at Comic-Con on Saturday, the studio confirmed that a _Wonder Woman_ sequel is in the works. Meanwhile, the [new trailer](http://time.com/4867628/justice-league-trailer-comic-con/) for _Justice League_ clearly capitalizes on Diana Prince’s success: Wonder Woman shows up in about every other shot. Vindication must feel good for Patty Jenkins, who [said at last year’s Comic-Con](http://time.com/4420720/wonder-woman-director-patty-jenkins/) she spent over a decade lobbying studios to make a Wonder Woman movie. But what really proved Wonder Woman’s worth at that panel were the dozens of little girls dressed up like Wonder Woman, lining up to ask Gadot a question or get a signature. In fact, Wonder Woman appeared to be one of the most popular costumes at the convention this year, along with Rey from _Star Wars_ and Daenerys from _Game of Thrones_. (And yes, men, too, donned these costumes.) Just five or ten years ago, these characters didn’t have onscreen iterations. Now they’re icons. The popularity of the Wonder Women, Reys and Daeneryses of the world prove that women want to see themselves as superheroes, jedis and mothers of dragons. They want to see themselves in genre. It’s something that female moviegoers have known for decades, but it took Wonder Woman’s lasso of truth to convince the industry. May we never doubt her power again.
