Patty Jenkins just dropped one of the coolest superhero posters I've ever seen, bursting with color. It's for Wonder Woman 1984, and it features Gal Gadot decked out in what appears to be a brand new costume, surrounded by trippy light in the shape of – what else – a W. See the new Wonder Woman 1984 poster below!

By now you've heard: WB isn't going to Hall H this year. We're so sad to miss you there! And waiting until Dec. to start our official #WW84 campaign in full– But the truth is... we can just... barely... wait... pic.twitter.com/QllFzhYRA6

I swear to you, I yelled "Holy s***!" – out loud – when I saw this Tweet. Superhero posters are often bland and colorless, so when something like this comes along, it's a shock to the system. On the heels of the news that Warner Bros. wouldn't be attending Hall H at SDCC this year, Patty Jenkins took to Twitter to unveil this gorgeous Wonder Woman 1984 poster, and reveal that the official promotional campaign for the movie won't start until December. Which means don't expect a trailer until then. For now, though, this is pretty damn great. Here's the poster on its own:

I saw some early Wonder Woman 1984 footage at SDCC last year, and it was quite colorful and visually bright, which matches up with this poster well. So what's the deal with the gold armor? Per the DC Wiki, Wonder Woman wears gold "ceremonial battle armor...whenever she needed to face a powerful villain." The armor also came with some abilities:

Superhuman Durability: Providing protection from explosions, gunfire, electricity, and most forms of physical and energy attack.

Flight

Sealed Systems: The helmet has a retractable faceplate. When in use, the wearer has a protected air supply.

That doesn't mean those same abilities will be in play in the film, but it's something to keep in mind.

Wonder Woman 1984 opens June 5, 2020.

Fast forward to the 1980s as Wonder Woman's next big screen adventure finds her facing an all-new foe: The Cheetah. Principal photography is underway on Warner Bros. Pictures' follow up to the Super Hero's first outing, last summer's record-breaking "Wonder Woman," which took in $822 million at the worldwide box office. "Wonder Woman 1984" will also be helmed by acclaimed director Patty Jenkins, and star Gal Gadot in the title role.

As previously announced, the film also stars Kristen Wiig in the role of the Super-Villain The Cheetah, as well as Pedro Pascal. And Chris Pine returns as Steve Trevor.
