New ‘Wonder Woman’ trailer serves up action, more details as Gal Gadot shines

The DC Cinematic Universe will serve up Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman and fans just got a new look at the film.

Wonder Woman is set during the First World War, U.S. military man Steve Trevor (Chris Pine) finds himself stranded on the Aegean island of Themyscira, home of the Amazons. During the disastrous Gallipoli campaign, the Amazons get a firsthand look at the most destructive conflict and “the war to end all wars.”

Gadot’s Diana Prince takes this really hard and the future Wonder Woman agrees to help Trevor get home and, while she’s at it, help Trevor stop the creations of “weapons far deadlier than you can ever imagine.”

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.
