Plot
August "Auggie" Pullman is a 10-year-old boy living in Brooklyn, New York with his parents, Isabel and Nate, older sister, Olivia "Via", and their dog, Daisy. Auggie was born with a rare medical facial deformity, mandibulofacial dysostosis. He has been homeschooled by Isabel, but as Auggie approaches fifth grade, she and Nate enroll him at Beecher Prep, a private middle school. When the school year begins, Auggie is ostracized, but he soon forms a close friendship with a classmate, Jack Will.
For Halloween, Auggie dresses as Ghostface from the previous year when Daisy ruins his planned Boba Fett costume. As he enters his homeroom, Auggie overhears Jack, who does not recognize him, joining Julian, the class bully, and his friends, Amos, Miles, and Henry, in ridiculing Auggie behind his back. Auggie feigns sick, forcing Isabel to abandon her mother-daughter day with Via to pick him up. Though she is hurt, Via convinces Auggie to go trick-or-treating with her, as she has been rejected by her own best friend, Miranda Navas. Afterwards, Auggie begins avoiding Jack.
Auggie forms a new friendship with another classmate, Summer Dawson, confiding in her about his split with Jack. When Jack asks Summer why Auggie is avoiding him, she says "Ghostface". Jack realizes his mistake and resolves to make it up to Auggie by being his partner for the science fair instead of partnering with Julian and Amos. When Julian confronts Jack about it and calls Auggie a "freak," they get into a fight. Outraged, Julian ends his friendship with Jack, who is suspended for two days. The principal, Mr. Lawrence Tushman, reads Jack's letter about defending Auggie, and Jack then apologizes to Auggie via Minecraft, and they reconcile.
Meanwhile, Via has been feeling left out as her parents spend more time looking after Auggie than her and Miranda has been ignoring her since the summer. Via signs up for the drama club after meeting Justin Hollander, with whom she begins a romantic relationship. Via is selected as Miranda's understudy for the lead role in the school's production of Our Town, but on opening night, learning that Via's family is in attendance while her family is not, Miranda feigns illness to let Via take her place. Via gives a moving performance, earning a standing ovation, and reconciles with Miranda.
Auggie's popularity and circle of friends grow, but Julian and his friends continue to bully Auggie. Mr. Tushman confronts Julian and his parents with evidence, including hate notes and a class picture with Auggie photoshopped out. Julian's mother admits she deleted Auggie from the picture, defends Julian's actions, and insists that students should not be exposed to Auggie. Despite her threats to pull funding, Julian is suspended for two days, forcing him to miss an upcoming nature retreat. As they leave, his mother declares that Julian will not be back in the fall. However, Julian apologizes to Mr. Tushman, and the latter forgives him.
At the nature retreat, Auggie and Jack are threatened by a trio of seventh graders from another school, but Amos, Miles, and Henry defend them. At the graduation ceremony, Auggie thanks Isabel for enrolling him in school and is given the Henry Ward Beecher Medal for his strength and courage throughout the school year.

Production
Development
On November 27, 2012, it was announced that Lionsgate was developing a feature film adaptation of R. J. Palacio's debut novel Wonder, and were in talks with John August to write the screenplay.[4] Mandeville Films' David Hoberman and Todd Lieberman produced the film.[4]
On May 8, 2013, Jack Thorne was hired to adapt the novel after August had departed from the project.[5] In October 2014, John Krokidas was reported to be directing the film,[6] though in April 2015, Paul King was hired to direct instead. Steven Conrad was writing the script at that time.[7]
Casting
On April 14, 2016, Jacob Tremblay was cast to play the lead role, Auggie Pullman, while Julia Roberts was in talks to play Auggie's mother.[8] On May 5, 2016, Roberts' casting was confirmed, and Stephen Chbosky was set as the film's director.[9]
On June 27, 2016, Owen Wilson joined to play Auggie's father.[10] On July 11, 2016, newcomer Noah Jupe joined the cast as Auggie's best friend at school,[11] and on July 15, 2016, Daveed Diggs was cast as Mr. Browne, an English teacher at the school.[12]
On August 19, 2016, Sônia Braga joined the cast, portraying the role of Roberts's character's mother.[13]
Special effects
Tremblay's prosthetic makeup, designed and created by Arjen Tuiten, took an hour and a half to apply. It consisted of a skull cap with prosthetic ears attached, a facial prosthetic that covered Tremblay's face, and a wig to tie it all together.[14]
Filming
Filming took place in several locations in British Columbia, Canada, and Coney Island, New York, from October 18 to December 13, 2016.
Music
Marcelo Zarvos composed the film's score.[15] Bea Miller composed a song for the film, "Brand New Eyes". It was released on August 3, 2017. Wonder author R. J. Palacio has often credited Natalie Merchant's song "Wonder", from her 1995 album Tigerlily, as the inspiration for her best-selling book. At Merchant's invitation, the song was featured on the soundtrack. The song is played during the film's end credits.[16]
Release
Lionsgate had initially scheduled Wonder to be released in the United States on April 7, 2017.[17][18] On February 13, 2017, it was announced that the release date had been pushed back to November 17, 2017.[19] Wonder had its world premiere at the Regency Village Theater in Los Angeles on November 14, 2017.[20]
Reception
Box office
Wonder grossed $132 million in the United States and Canada, and $182 million in other territories, for a worldwide total of $315 million, against a production budget of $20 million.[3] Deadline Hollywood calculated the film made a net profit of $55.3 million, when factoring together all expenses and revenues.[21]
In the United States and Canada, Wonder opened alongside Justice League, The Star, and Roman J. Israel, Esq. and was initially projected to gross around $9 million from 3,096 theaters in its first weekend.[22] However, after grossing $740,000 from Thursday night previews and receiving a large number of group ticket sales, weekend projections were upped to $15 million.[23] Weekend projections were again increased, this time to $28 million, after the film made $9.4 million on its first day. The film went on to debut to $27.5 million,[24] finishing second at the box office, behind Justice League.[25] In its second weekend, the film dropped just 17.7%, grossing $22.7 million and finishing third at the box office.[26]
Critical response
On review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, the film has an approval rating of 85% based on 192 reviews, and an average rating of 7.1/10. The site's critical consensus reads, "Wonder doesn't shy away from its bestselling source material's sentiment, but this well-acted and overall winsome drama earns its tugs at the heartstrings."[27] On Metacritic, the film has a weighted average score of 66 out of 100, based on 33 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[28] Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "A+" on an A+ to F scale, one of approximately 100 films in the history of the service to receive the grade.[25]
Some reviewers criticized the decision to cast an actor without the same condition as Auggie as undermining the film's message.[29][30] In August 2021, during Edinburgh TV Festival's MacTaggart Lecture, co-writer Jack Thorne, while not specifically citing Wonder, acknowledged that he had failed to stand up for disabled talent on projects involving the subject, and sought to rectify this through pushing for new disability initiatives like 'Underlying Health Condition', which launched in December 2021.[31]
