A good team: The brunette bombshell was there to talk up Wonder Woman 1984 – which is due in US theaters November 1, 2019 – with her co-star Chris Pine
The director: Also there was Patty Jenkins who is at the helm of the sequelJenkins told the audience that she chose 1984 as her setting because it was ‘mankind at its best and worst’ and ‘us at our most extreme.’According to PolyGon, there was a small teaser.‘First we see Diana in her uniform, saving a young girl at a shopping mall from two gun-carrying goons. She crushes the guns, pushes the girl out of the way, sending her into two giant stuffed bears, then lassos the two men and jumps off the second floor.

Giggles: Gal laughed backstage of the event with Chris Pine‘The colors are bright, the action was tough yet mesmerizing (the lasso, in full slow-motion, looks gorgeous), and even though Tiffany wasn’t serenading the scene in her usual 1980s-mall-tour mode, the energy was high.’‘The thing that mattered to me the most,’ Jenkins said, ‘is I wanted to make great movies in my lifetime.‘And I found myself saying I have these characters I love and this world that I love and we can make a movie about something completely new, pure and strong and as unique as the first one. Of course I want to do that.’

Two wonders: Left, Gal as Wonder Woman, and right, Lynda Carter as Wonder Woman on TVWonder Woman 1984 may be headed to HBO Max instead of the big screen, but the film arrives with all the hallmarks of a year-end blockbuster. The lead up to the sequel, which explores the Regan-era life of Princess Diana of Themyscira, kicked off earlier this month with a global slate of premieres and a full-scale press tour. Its lead, Gal Gadot, is delivering epic fashion at every appearance. Case in point: at today’s Chinese virtual premiere Gadot live-streamed in a statement look from Valentino’s spring/summer 2021 runway. The crimson, draped silk, tulle gown was the grand finale to Pierpaolo Piccioli’s September show. When model Denise Ascuet wore a version with a transparent bodice down the runway, the dress encapsulated the unbridled romanticism that inspired the collection.
By comparison, Gadot’s opaque version of the gown was modest, but it didn’t lack drama. As styled by Elizabeth Stewart, the dress was a regal addition to the star’s promotion tour wardrobe. Paired with diamond ear cuffs from Tiffany and Co., slicked-back hair by Mark Townsend, and a bright red lip from makeup artist Sabrina Bedrani, the look was chic from head to toe. More than making the already-glamorous Gadot seem in her element, the Valentino piece aligned with the spirit of her famous character. If an Amazonian Queen had to choose something to wear from the collections, it would probably be one of Piccioli’s refined creations. Toss in a lasso of truth and a couple of bulletproof arm cuffs, and the dress could easily transition from Gadot’s closet to Diana’s.
