Freya Kerr and Sanjana Phillip Wonder Woman
History Of The Character • Wonder Woman's origin story relates that she was sculpted from clay by her mother Queen Hippolyta and was given a life to live as an Amazon, along with superhuman powers as gifts by the Greek gods. • Wonder Woman is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. • Wonder Woman is arguably the most famous female superhero out there — one with a colourful history through the years. Making her debut in the 1941’s All Star Comics No. 8, the character was created by William Moulton Marston, who envisioned her as the ideal love leader and the type of woman who should rule the world with the strength of Superman and the appeal of a good and beautiful woman. The comic book has been published by DC Comics for its entire run, apart from a brief hiatus in 1986.
DC UNIVERSE & MARVEL FRANCHISE • There are distinct differences between the worlds of DC and Marvel, though, specifically in whether or not they take place in fictional locations. In Marvel, the good guys are usually fighting for cities that we know. On the other hand, DC generally sticks to fictional worlds for its heroes to protect. • MORE Marvel's characters have won in more categories, but DC's victors far outshine their competition. No one from the Marvel Universe or the DC Universe compares to Superman, whereas Iron Man and Hawkeye just barely edge out their rivals. Still, we'd say that Marvel has stronger characters for now. • Marvel has so far been the more successful film franchise over DC Comics. The Disney owned Marvel Cinematic Universe has so far included 21 movies. DC Comics movies, however, have been hit and miss though are currently on the up with Wonder Woman, Aquaman, and Shazam.

Snapchat was also incorporated in the campaign, allowing the studio access to that hallowed that young demographic. • Days before launch, five exclusive Snapchat filters went live, adopting all the props from the movie. The activity also culminated in a 16 bit game being released on snapchat. • On Twitter, Gadot offered up behind-the-scenes access to her 900k followers.

It was there for invested parties turning the production process into a daily conversation. • Studios often use their star power to generate buzz on social media, Fox's Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds mastered this for the release of Logan and Deadpool respectively. Gadot also served as a major component of the marketing.
