Epic new “Wonder Woman” trailer released

The slate of superhero movies set to be released in 2017 has started with a bang, with studios delivering big wins with both “The LEGO Batman Movie” and “Logan”. In a couple months, Marvel Studios' first offering of the year will be up on in cinemas with “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2”, but the DC Extended Universe also gave fans a new taste of what they're cooking up this summer, with Patty Jenkins' “Wonder Woman”, played by Gal Gadot.

This isn't the first trailer for the film, as there was an early look at San Diego Comic-Con last year, and footage was also put online at the end of last year, but this new preview offers some slick new material of the Amazonian's first solo feature.

While the previous two Wonder Woman trailers focused more at Themyscira, this latest preview delves into what Diana's life growing up on the mystical island was like. Like many of the other women there, Diana was raised to be a warrior, but per the instructions of her mother, Queen Hippolyta, she was trained much harder than the others so that one day, she would become the best of them all.

Regardless, Diana will finally get the chance to prove herself when Steve Trevor (played by Chris Pine) crash-lands on Themyscira's shores, as she'll escort him back to “man's world” and attempt to put an end to World War I. With her mystical sword, shield and the Lasso of Truth, she'll not only battle regular soldiers, but also go up against main baddies General Erich Ludendorff (an actual historic figure), Doctor Poison and eventually Ares, the God of War.

Still, not all of Diana's time in “Wonder Woman” will be spent fighting. She'll also learn the social ins and outs of early 20th century society, which includes how wielding a sword and shield in the streets of London isn't a great idea.

“Wonder Woman” is set to be released in theatres on June 2.
