WATCH NOW: Wonder Woman is getting her own origin story in the first trailer for the eponymous film.
The footage dropped during the Comic-Con panel on Saturday with the story kicking off with warrior Diana Prince (Gal Gadot) finding a man, Steve Trevor (Chris Pine), washed up on the beaches of Themyscira, where the Amazons have dwelled in secrecy for centuries. Learning that the outside world stands on the brink of a global conflict, they head off to Europe to deal firsthand with warfare.
The standalone film is set to hit theaters June 2017.
WATCH NOW: Director Zack Snyder unveiled the sizzle reel for the still-in-production Justice League at Comic-Con this weekend.
The footage is lighter and funnier in tone than this year’s Batman V. Superman and delivers an interesting clash between DC Comics superheroes. The film reunites Batman (Ben Affleck), Superman (Henry Cavill) and Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot) alongside Aquaman (Jason Momoa), The Flash (Ezra Miller) and Cyborg (Ray Fisher).
Here is the official synopsis: Fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman’s selfless act, Bruce Wayne enlists the help of his newfound ally, Diana Prince, to face an even greater enemy. Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to find and recruit a team of metahumans to stand against this newly awakened threat. But despite the formation of this unprecedented league of heroes, it may already be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.
Justice League is scheduled to open in theaters November 2017.
