It’s been a rough year, but WarnerMedia has a Christmas present for fans in the form of the long-delayed Wonder Woman 1984. The sequel to 2017’s blockbuster DC Comics film was supposed to have opened on June 5, but COVID-19 scrapped those plans. The picture was pushed back multiple times, but WarnerMedia is tired of sitting on its would-be theatrical hits, and Wonder Woman 1984 will finally be released in the United States on Christmas Day, December 25, both in theaters and on HBO Max.
In anticipation of this film’s release in three weeks, a new trailer has been released along with a new set of character posters.
Director Patty Jenkins presented the new trailer at the virtual version of São Paulo, Brazil’s annual CCXP Comic Con Experience. Though brief, the new clip does include quite a few never-before-seen shots from the movie.
As Hippolyta says in the opening narration:
“Diana, one day you will become all that you dream of and more. Then everything will be different. This world is not yet ready for all that you will do. You will become a legend.”

Here is the film’s synopsis:

In addition to the new trailer, new character posters have been released of Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, Chris Pine as Steve Trevor, Kristen Wiig as Barbara Minerva/The Cheetah, and Pedro Pascal as Max Lord.
