The Wonder Woman 1984 trailer is totally rad, and we’re not just saying that because it’s historically appropriate. We’ve watched this at least five times in a row; it’s just that good. Princess Diana soars through a stormy sky, performs spectacular slo-mo stunts, chases criminals through Starcourt Mall, and at the end reveals an awesome new set of body armor. And that rearrangement of a Depesche Mode ditty is just exquisite. Hear for yourself.
Note: I’m being told it’s not Depesche Mode, it’s actually a band named New Order. Who the heck is New Order and why do they sound exactly like Depesche Mode? Forget it, it’s by Depesche Mode now, because I said so.
Wonder Woman 1984 features the return of Gal Gadot as the title character, Robin Wright and Connie Nelson as her Amazonian allies Antiope and Hippolyta, Pedro Pascal as the villainous Maxwell Lord, and Kristen Wiig as an archaeologist named Barbara Ann, who’s going to become Wondy’s arch-nemesis Cheetah.
One thing that’s...
