On a busy Monday evening, Preen.ph sponsored a block screening of the 2017 superhero film “Wonder Woman” at Century City Mall in Makati City.

The cinema was packed with diverse personalities—including Roxanne Montealegre, Tricia Centenera, Teresa Herrera-Anthony and Inquirer Lifestyle’s Tessa Prieto-Valdes.

Prominent names in the fashion and beauty scenes were likewise present: makeup artist Jigs Mayuga, designers Joey Samson, Ivar Aseron, Rosenthal Tee and models Jo-Ann Bitagcol, Jullian Culas and Hye Won Jang.

Arriving 76 years after its comic book debut, the “Wonder Woman” flick, directed by Patty Jenkins, delves into the superhero’s origin story. Diana Prince/Wonder Woman is deemed a feminist and gender-equality icon with her empowering character.

The event had guests raving about “Wonder Woman” star Gal Gadot, her beauty and portrayal of the superhero.

They also praised the fight scenes and Gadot’s chemistry with Chris Pine, who plays Prince’s love interest, Steven Trevor.

Overall, everyone loved the mix of action and heartwarming moments in the film.
