Wonder Woman (2017)

[The Joker]

Let's get a Wonder Woman movie thread going.

Production has already started on the film, and has, as of a few days ago, revealed it's cast.

In addition, we also have our first image of Gadot's Wonder Woman from the film as well.

And evidently, Chris Pine will be playing a few Trevor's due to the timeline jump in the film. Similar to how Steve Trevor was dealt with in the Lynda Carter Wonder Woman series where Lyle Waggoner played a WW2 era Steve Trevor during the 1st season, and then later Steve Trevor Jr. during the 2nd and 3rd seasons where the show shifted from WW2 to modern times.

So it looks like the film will be set in WWII after all, judging by the costumes. And that would mean that Wonder Woman is an immortal, wouldn't it?

Unconfirmed rumours suggest that one of the villains will be Ares.

So she'll be appearing in BvS, then getting her own movie that's in the same continuity? Sounds great! I'm happy for the Wonder Woman fans out there that have been waiting for something like this to happen!

[Edd Grayson]

I really wanted this to happen, almost as much as I wanted Batman and Superman to meet in a live-action film. I hope my expectations are not exaggerated.

I hear Pine's Steve Trevor will meet up with Wonder Woman during WW1, which is an interesting change ... Then at some point, the film is said to jump forward in time to present day with Pine playing Trevor's grandson or great grandson.

It does appear like Wondy will be depicted as being immortal considering the time jump/jumps in the film. Going with her original origin as being a baby formed of clay, and given life by the Gods, or being a daughter of Zeus makes no difference there...

Unconfirmed rumours suggest that one of the villains will be Ares.

I really hope if Ares appears, there will be alot of influence from the George Perez depiction.

Connie Nielsen has been cast as Hippolyta, Wonder Woman's mother in the forthcoming solo Wonder Woman movie:

I think this is a good choice.  After all, Nielsen played a royal character very successfully in Gladiator.

I see some people already comparing this movie to Captain America: The First Avenger because it's a period film. Good omen if you ask me. The First Avenger was great.

Agreed Laughing Fish.  I'd have no problem whatsoever if Wonder Woman is the DC Extended Universe's version of Captain America: The First Avenger.

[The Dark Knight]

Same opinion for me. BvS and Suicide Squad represent good momentum for the new DC shared universe. I'm really hoping WW can continue that potential. I like Gal in the above pics very much.

Agreed!

I've actually watched Captain America: The First Avenger more than it's sequel The Winter Soldier. Probably in the minority on that one, but oh well. It is what it is.
