The much-awaited Wonder Woman 1984 trailer debuted on Saturday, showing Gal Gadot in her role as the iconic character known as Diana Prince.
Returning for the highly-anticipated sequel is on-screen love Chris Pine, who narrates Steve Trevor, an intelligence officer in the military.
In the first trailer audience will have a few glimpses Pine, who returns in this film for mysterious reasons following his death in 2017’s first Wonder Woman film.
But fans seem to be most excited over lightning action and lasso-swinging as the Amazonian princess-turned superhero is seen fighting on a whole new level.
“Wonder woman swinging from one lightning to the other is PEAK EXCELLENCE,” one Twitter user wrote. Another excitedly shared, “Wonder Woman 1984 serving us with all the lasso goodness we need #WW84.”

Of course, some Twitter users took to the crazy-viral Baby Yoda memes, including the adorable new character from the new Star Wars spin-off The Mandalorian.
“Me waiting for the Wonder Woman 1984 trailer,” a user said.

The trailer also reveals Bridesmaids star Kristen Wiig’s new villain, Cheetah, one of the superhero’s longest-standing foes (though in this trailer she’s very much in her civvies), as well as Pedro Pascal’s Maxwell Lord.
At first, the two are friends, but Wiig will morph into one of her biggest archenemies, Cheetah.
The first film was set during World War 1, and the follow-up is now 66 years in the future.
