The Wonder Woman 1984 trailer dropped on Sunday and there is LASSO LIGHTNING and LOTS OF EXCITEMENT.
Once again starring Gal Gadot as the Amazon princess turned superhero, it's the second installment in the franchise by director Patty Jenkins — and this time set during the Cold War. And Wonder Woman has a new foe, Cheetah, who will be played by Kristen Wiig.
It'll be the ninth entry in the DC Extended Universe and will also star Chris Pine, Pedro Pascal, Connie Nielsen, and Robin Wright. The movie is set to be released on June 5, 2020 — a long wait for fans of the original 2017 film.
Now, enough of formalities, info, and details. As you've already seen, the trailer has it all. And people were called to attention and immediately took note.
