Ahead of this year's San
Diego Comic-Con, Warner Bros. and DC Films have released the official synopsis
for director Patty Jenkins' 2017 superhero action drama Wonder Woman, starring
Gal Gadot, who reprises the titular role she first played in Zack Snyder's Batman
v Superman: Dawn of Justice.
"Wonder Woman" hits
movie theaters around the world next summer when Gal Gadot returns as the title
character in the epic action adventure from director Patty Jenkins. Before she
was Wonder Woman, she was Diana, princess of the Amazons, trained to be an unconquerable
warrior. Raised on a sheltered island paradise, when an American pilot crashes
on their shores and tells of a massive conflict raging in the outside world,
Diana leaves her home, convinced she can stop the threat. Fighting alongside
man in a war to end all wars, Diana will discover her full powers…and her true
destiny.
Joining Gadot in the
international cast are Chris Pine, Connie Nielsen, Robin Wright, David Thewlis,
Danny Huston, Elena Anaya, Ewen Bremner and Saïd Taghmaoui. Jenkins directs the
film from a screenplay by Allan Heinberg and Geoff Johns, story by Zack Snyder
& Allan Heinberg, based on characters from DC Entertainment. Wonder Woman
was created by William Moulton Marston.
The film is produced by Charles Roven,
Zack Snyder, Deborah Snyder and Richard Suckle, with Rebecca Roven, Stephen
Jones, Wesley Coller and Geoff Johns serving as executive producers. Warner
Bros. Pictures presents, in association with RatPac-Dune Entertainment, an
Atlas Entertainment/Cruel and Unusual production, "Wonder Woman."
The film is
scheduled for release on June 2, 2017, and will be distributed worldwide by
Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros.
Entertainment Company.
I thought it wasn't going to be an origin story? Sounds like the same old same old.
