‘Woman’ sequel nods to the ’80s
Filming has begun on director Patty Jenkins’ highly anticipated follow-up to 2017’s “Wonder Woman.”
Officially titled “Wonder Woman 1984,” the sequel will see star Gal Gadot reprise the character of Diana Prince (a.k.a. Wonder Woman) opposite a new foe named the Cheetah, played by Kristen Wiig.
Warner Bros. unveiled the title in a press release Wednesday, also confirming the return of “Wonder Woman” costar Chris Pine as Steve Trevor, the U.S. Army pilot and spy who encountered the super-powered heroine circa World War I in the first film.
“Wonder Woman 1984” is scheduled for release on Nov. 1, 2019.
