It’s been a good year for Warner Bros. Animation, and the next feature-length DC Universe Original Movie is releasing soon. A prequel to Justice League: War film, Wonder Woman: Bloodlines, which is co-directed by Sam Liu (Reign of the Supermen) and Justin Copeland (Batman: Hush), tells a very different origin story for the Amazon princess.
The trailer features classic villains, such as Cheetah, Giganta and Dr. Poison, alongside regulars from the Wonder Woman universe, like Steve Trevor, Hippolyta and Etta Candy.
While a lot of it looks copy and paste from DC’s Wonder Woman feature film, like the opening scene in the trailer where Diana saves Steve, we can expect that this will add a New 52 spin on things.
Amazon princess Diana of Themyscira chooses to save fighter pilot Steve Trevor and return him to his home in America – setting in motion one of Wonder Woman’s most captivating chapters. Fulfilling the role of both ambassador as well as protector, Diana soon earns the name Wonder Woman from the gracious people of Earth.
Rosario Dawson stars as Diana Prince/Wonder Woman, Jeffrey Donovan voices Steve Trevor, Marie Avgeropoulos as Silver Swan, Kimberly Brooks as The Cheetah and Giganta, and Michael Dorn as Ferdinand, with Ray Chase as the Lead Bandit, Mozhan Marno as Dr. Cyber, Adrienne Moore as Etta Candy, Cree Summer as Queen Hippolyta, Courtenay Taylor as Dr. Poison, Nia Vardalos as Julia Kapatelis, and Constance Zimmer as Veronica Cale.
The Wonder Woman: Bloodlines film releases on October 22, 2019.
