Time to talk about the official Wonder Woman Trailer. SWEET LORD WHERE
DOES ONE BEGIN? After all the hype from Batman
vs Superman and the recent release of the new Justice League trailer, there are high expectations of the upcoming
film which is due for release in 2017. It will be interesting to see what the
director, Patty Jenkins, has come up with in bringing us the story of Wonder
Woman’s origins. Starring the amazing
Gal Gadot whose previous career in the Israeli army certainly granted her the
skill set to gracefully smash any action roles with her own stunts. So there is
no surprise that Gadot is ideal for the part of playing the Amazonian princess
Diana; after all, she is practically the real deal.
The costume has to be one of the best things
about the new Wonder Woman. If you
were/are a fan of Xena the Warrior
Princess like I was, you will definitely appreciate the revamped dark
leather armour suit. Not to mention that gorgeous blue dress Diana wears, where
the sword looks a part of the dress (GENIUS!). I swear these are the BAMF goals
that everyone needs to strive for. And
of course Wonder Woman can’t be Wonder Woman without her golden lasso and shield.
Seriously, hats off to the costume department for managing to recreate those
Amazonian/Greek mythology vibes while maintaining the Hero we all know and
recognise.
The time period of the origin piece is
rather interesting and while the war during which the film takes place is not
established, rumours have stated it was either during WWI or WWII. Nevertheless,
the ancient scenery from Diana’s Mediterranean home, contrasted with the latter
parts of the film of her sparring in more modern war zones, definitely amplify
the Hero’s otherworldly persona, and with such a wide timeline to work with
there are so many possibilities for varying plot lines.
If scenes of bad ass warriors charging into
the fray on horseback don’t cause you to have major feelings of going off and
joining the Amazonians, then go sit in a corner and surround yourself in a
bubble of reality. Pair that with an epic soundtrack and this movie is expected
to become another hit of the DC franchise. Here’s the new trailer to enjoy for yourself! J
