First up on the list of DC comic spin-offs will be Suicide Squad – which is set to follow Batman v Superman – arriving in cinemas in 2017. There are the bullet-proof bracelets, there’s the truth-inducing golden lasso – who knows, maybe the invisible jet is in there too, we just can’t see it.
Explaining where she had got her inspiration to play the role of Wonder Woman, aka Diana Prince, the 31-year-old actress revealed she had watched a documentary on the late Princess Diana before filming began. Check out Gal Gadot kicking butt in our Wonder Woman trailer screenshots in the gallery below! “I had no father”, she says to Trevor when he asks if she had ever met a man before. “It was the most powerful artistic experience I had as a child”, and she wanted to do that for Wonder Woman. The clip then takes viewers to the all-female island where Wonder Woman was born. The effects are wonderful, and the slow-motion shot of Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman leaping into action is just ideal. Producers previously teased Wonder Woman’s backstory in January, but this is fans’ first sneak peek at the action film itself. “I would want to be naive like that again”, she added.
The actress made her first appearance as the iconic feminist superhero in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, where her scene-stealing character fought alongside Ben Affleck’s Bruce Wayne/Batman and Henry Cavill’s Clark Kent/Superman.
“I feel like Diana is really accessible”. The footage ends with Cyborg turning to Batman saying he didn’t believe The Bat existed to which Batman replies, “I’m real when it’s useful”.
