DC’s Wonder Woman drops a new trailer to rekindle viewer anticipation
A brand new trailer for Wonder Woman just dropped, and with it comes another round of viewer hype that’s eerily familiar. Fans are jaded and cynical at this point in the DC Extended Universe’s run, but it’s hard not to hope this will be the one that breaks the sour streak. Whether you love or hate the Man of Steel movies and Suicide Squad, Wonder Woman shows promise as yet another fresh start for a franchise that’s had trouble finding footing. One thing Wonder Woman has going for it that the previous three movies didn’t is a very strong theme song, which is sure to stand out in a sea of bwwaaaaaaaa.
Watch the new trailer for Wonder Woman and check out three striking new posters for the movie after the jump.
Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman was a highlight of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and many moviegoers have been waiting to see the lasso-wielding Amazonian take front and center in her own film. The movie’s past/present dynamic is reminiscent of Marvel’s Captain America, and it’ll be a nice change of pace for the DC camp to take a step back in time. Also just like Marvel, DC movies have been brimming with A-list talent, and Wonder Woman is no exception. Almost everyone involved is solid if not thoroughly entertaining in their own light, so once again here’s hoping Wonder Woman’s cast and setting can set the fourth DCEU movie apart from its predecessors.
Here’s the official plot synopsis for Wonder Woman:
Before she was Wonder Woman, she was Diana, princess of the Amazons, trained to be an unconquerable warrior. Raised on a sheltered island paradise, when an American pilot crashes on their shores and tells of a massive conflict raging in the outside world, Diana leaves her home, convinced she can stop the threat. Fighting alongside man in a war to end all wars, Diana will discover her full powers…and her true destiny.
Wonder Woman is directed by Patty Jenkins stars Gal Gadot, Chris Pine, Robin Wright, Danny Huston, Connie Nielsen, David Thewlis, Ewen Bremner, and Saiid Taghmaoui. Wonder Woman hits theaters June 2, 2017.
