Wonder Woman 1984 poster reveals Gal Gadot’s shiny new armor plus a behind-the-scenes featurette about filming the sequel in IMAX
With just two and a half weeks left until her highly-anticipated superhero sequel Wonder Woman 1984 hits theaters, Gal Gadot has shared a new poster.
The 35-year-old actress took to Instagram on Tuesday, sharing a new poster of her wearing some rather shiny armor.
She also joked about the sequel’s recent (and rather seismic) release shift to both theaters and HBO Max simultaneously, while director Patty Jenkins shared a new featurette about making the film in IMAX.

‘Just missing my Santa hat,’ Gadot joked, adding, ‘#WW84 out in CinemaSafe theaters and on @hbomax on Christmas Day!’
The poster image showed the leggy actress covered neck to toe in shiny steel armor, which she’ll certainly need to defeat new villains in this sequel.
Gadot was also featured in a behind-the-scenes featurette (courtesy of Fandango), which director Patty Jenkins retweeted to her followers.

She added it was ‘mindblowing’ to get the opportunity to film the sequel on IMAX, while IMAX tech Scott Smith proclaims you will ‘never forget’ the sequel if you get the chance to see it in IMAX.
Of course, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s unclear quite yet how many IMAX theaters will be open by the time the superhero sequel hits theaters on Christmas Day.
Still, the featurette makes a strong case of why you should see the sequel in this format, with producer Charles Roven stating they wanted the film to have a ‘sense of spectacle,’ adding IMAX is one of the ‘most incredibly immersive mediums in the film arena.’

Gadot herself praised director Jenkins (who also co-wrote the script with Geoff Johns and Dave Callaham) for her ‘ambitious’ vision for the film.
‘The stories are personal and beautiful and intimate, but at the same time, they’re huge and big and mind-blowing,’ Gadot added.
The actress said that the movie is so beautifully shot that seeing it on IMAX, ‘is just gonna take it to the next level’ as the video comes to an end.
