Holy moly, Woman Woman is kicking some serious butt!

The numbers are in for the film’s opening weekend, and they are beyond impressive. After bringing in $100.5 million in North American and an additional $122.5 million internationally, director Patty Jenkins has set a new record for the biggest-ever opening weekend for a movie directed by a woman. How apropos!

The previous record was held by Sam Taylor-Johnson for Fifty Shades of Grey, which took in $81.7 million in the first weekend. Before that, the record holder was Catherine Hardwick for Twilight, which made $69.6 million in the first three days.

Wonder Woman was the most expensive female-directed movie ever, with a budget of $150 million. It is also only the 16th superhero film to break $100 million dollars domestically in the first weekend, and even beat out Thor, Captain America, and Iron Man.

You go, girls!
