A New Zealand-born moviemaker, Niki Caro’s early career was focused on her own culture, from her first film, Memory and Desire to her second, the very successful Whale Rider. On a $3.5 million budget, Whale Rider grossed over $40 million and allowed Caro to go overseas and produce North Country starring Charlize Theron on a budget of $35 million. The film was nominated for multiple Oscars and, after going back to New Zealand, Caro expanded her career by directing a Disney production, McFarland, USA. Caro has her biggest project on the horizon as she has signed on to direct the live-action remake of Mulan, due in 2018.

I think Wonder Woman succesfully reached the hype and that Patty Jenkins saved the DC movie franchise. It had a great storyline, unlike BvS(Martha!), stunning fight scenes, and overall depicted Wonder Woman the right way: Strong, brave, courageous, and somewhat innocent.
