Starring Gal Gadot, the sequel takes place in 1984, 66 years after the events of the first movie.

Director Patty Jenkins stated at the convention that while the first movie was about Wonder Woman discovering who she is, WW1984 is about Wonder Woman bringing her mission of peace to the modern world combating some of her greatest foes, including Cheetah and Maxwell Lord.
The director also teased the fact that WW1984 will see practical stunts including real wirework and practical effects as well as real locations rather than a sound stage. Bringing more of a real-world feel to the movie rather than a CGI fest.
The trailer was also accompanied by new character posters for the main characters that match up with Wonder Woman’s main poster.
