Warner Bros dropped a new trailer for Wonder Woman 1984 recently. The 88 second long promotiona­l tool is to promote the Japanese release of the long-awaited superhero sequel and extends some of the fight scenes featured in previous English-language trailers.

The teaser comes just weeks after the fifth release date shakeup for the highly-anticipate­d sequel.

This latest trailer notably gives fans another look at Wonder

Woman's (Gal Gadot) golden armour, worn during a fight sequence with Cheetah (Kristen Wiig).

At one point Wonder Woman can be seen crossing her gold-clad arms to deflect an incoming bullet, a shot only very briefly hinted at in the film's first full-length trailer.

The new trailer also gives fans another look at Max Lord, the film's chief villain, played by Pedro Pascal (Game of Thrones).the sequel to the hugely-successful 2017 film starring Gal Gadot, is moving from an October debut to Christmas, according to Deadline. This marks the fifth release date shakeup for the highly-anticipate­d sequel, which was initially slated to hit theatres in December 13, 2019, then pushed up a month to November 1.

However, after the Joker's October release date was announced, the Patty Jenkins-directed flick was moved to June 5, 2020. With the ongoing coronaviru­s raging and movie theatres largely closed, those plans were scrapped and changed to August 14, then October 2 and, now, December 25.

‘First and foremost let me say how much Gal [Gadot] and I love all our devoted Wonder Woman fans around the world, and your excitement for WW84 couldn't make us happier or more eager for you to see the movie,' the film's Oscarwinni­ng director said in a statement, obtained by Deadline on Friday.'
