4) Wonder Woman
When’s it out? June 2nd, 2017
Who’s involved? Gal Gadot is in the lead, with Chris Pine as love interest Steve Trevor, Lucy Davis as best friend Etta Candy and Connie Nielsen as Diana Prince’s mother, Queen Hippolyta. Patty Jenkins is directing, from a script by Jason Fuchs.
What’s it about? As hinted at in BvS, Wonder Woman will take place during World War I and reveal just what happened to cause Diana to retreat from Man’s World until the events of that movie. Unlike a lot of these solo films, it will be an origin story.
Verdict: Gadot’s Diana Prince was a breath of fresh air in the otherwise testosterone-filled Batman V Superman, therefore we can’t wait to see her headline her own film. The eponymous Amazon has somehow never had her own movie before, despite being 75 years old, so hopefully it will be worth the long, long wait.
