Diana Prince Goes ’80s Chic in Wonder Woman 1984 Trailer

What If You Crossed Wonder Woman with Stranger Things?

The first lady of the DCEU is back, well… back in time, in Wonder Woman 1984. Pop culture’s beloved heroine Diana Prince (Gal Gadot) has returned to save the world, and she’s doing it in the most ‘80s way imaginable; with blaring vintage synths, pulsing neon fonts, and the gaudiest of fashion choices.

Patty Jenkins’ smash hit Wonder Woman did a lot to change the tone of the DCEU. The film was colourful, fun, and featured a heroine audiences could really root for, not some brooding dudes. Wonder Woman 1984 looks to embrace everything moviegoers loved about the original film – including Diana’s love interest Steve Trevor (Chris Pine).

Wonder Woman 1984 trailer:

It looks like Steve is back for “realz” and not a figment of Diana’s imagination. So I’m curious to see what kind of time travel trickery pulled the doomed pilot into 1984. Does it have to do with Pedro (The Mandalorian) Pascal’s nefarious villain Max Lord? Damn it, I need answers.

Sidenote: I’m most excited to see Kristen Wiig suit up as Diana’s arch-nemesis Cheetah. Hopefully, the character’s big reveal isn’t spoiled before now and the film’s June release.

Wonder Woman 1984 synopsis:

Fast forward to the 1980s as Wonder Woman’s next big screen adventure finds her facing two all-new foes: Max Lord and The Cheetah.

With director Patty Jenkins back at the helm and Gal Gadot returning in the title role, “Wonder Woman 1984” is Warner Bros. Pictures’ follow up to the DC Super Hero’s first outing, 2017’s record-breaking “Wonder Woman,” which took in $822 million at the worldwide box office.  The film also stars Chris Pine as Steve Trevor, Kristen Wiig as The Cheetah, Pedro Pascal as Max Lord, Robin Wright as Antiope, and Connie Nielsen as Hippolyta.

Wonder Woman 1984 opens in theatres on June 5, 2019, in 2D and 3D in select theatres and IMAX.
