Wonder Woman and Justice League - SDCC Trailers



Warner Bros. has released the Comic-Con trailer for Wonder Woman!



Definitely feels different from Man of Steel and Batman v Superman, which might be a good thing. I like what I see so far. It is fun seeing Wonder Woman plow through random soldiers, but they may be a little too easy to take down. Knowing Warner Bros, they will give Wonder Woman a suitably formidable antagonist to fight. Looking forward to seeing more.

Directed by Patty Jenkins, the films stars Gal Gadot, Chris Pine, Robin Wright, Connie Nielsen, Lucy Davis, Lisa Loven Kongsli, Florence Kasumba, Danny Huston, David Thewlis, Ewen Bremner, Saïd Taghmaoui, and Elena Anaya.

Here is a synopsis:

"Diana (Gal Gadot), princess of the Amazons, was raised on a sheltered island and trained to be an unconquerable fighter. After American pilot Steve Trevor (Chris Pine) crashes on the island and tells her about a world war that is happening, Diana leaves her home to try to stop the war."


Surprisingly, Warner Bros. also released the Comic-Con trailer for Justice League!



It is exciting to finally see all these characters together on screen. Looks like Warner Bros. is changing the overall tone of their films to feel less grim. This is not a bad choice, but hopefully they also understand that it will require more than just a tonal shift to make the films work. As of now, I am cautiously optimistic.

Directed by Zack Snyder, the film stars Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill, Gal Gadot, Jason Momoa, Ezra Miller, and Ray Fisher.

Here is the official synopsis:

"Fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman's selfless act, Bruce Wayne enlists the help of his newfound ally, Diana Prince, to face an even greater enemy. Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to find and recruit a team of metahumans to stand against this newly awakened threat. But despite the formation of this unprecedented league of heroes - Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg, and The Flash - it may already be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions."

Wonder Woman will arrive on July 2, 2017, while Justice League is scheduled for release on November 17, 2017.

DC's Legends of Tomorrow - First Look Trailer



The CW has released the epic first trailer for their new crossover series, DC's Legends of Tomorrow!



Whoah. Good to see the Sara Lance character back as the White Canary. It is also nice to see lesser known characters getting some time to shine like Hawkgirl and Rip Hunter. Vandal Savage should prove to be a worthy antagonist for this group. If Arrow and The Flash are any indication, this will be a good show for superhero fans.

The show stars Victor Garber as Dr. Martin Stein/Firestorm, Brandon Routh as Ray Palmer/The Atom, Caity Lotz as Sara Lance/White Canary, Arthur Darvill as Rip Hunter, Ciara Renee as Kendra Saunders/Hawkgirl, Franz Drameh as Jay Jackson, Dominic Purcell as Mick Rory/Heat Wave, and Wentworth Miller as Leonard Snart/Captain Cold.

Can this ragtag team defeat an immortal threat unlike anything they have ever known?"

DC's Legends of Tomorrow is set to debut on The CW next year.

The Flash - Extended Trailer



Take a look at the extended trailer for The Flash!



As a fan of Arrow, I'm really looking forward to this. The costume looks great in motion, and the promise of more characters with super powers is exciting. Let us hope the Weather Wizard, who was showcased heavily in the trailer, is just a sampling of what can be expected.

The Flash will be airing on Tuesdays this Fall on The CW.

The Flash - CW Teaser Trailer



Check out the teaser trailer for The Flash, featuring Stephen Amell as Oliver Queen/Arrow and Grant Gustin as BarryAllen/the Flash!



The running special effects actually look just like the comic books come to life. It will be interesting to see how the show shapes up in comparison to Arrow. If more shows can come from this, there could be some fun crossovers in the future. Imagine a Justice League TV special. Someone needs to make that happen.

The Flash will premiere this Fall on The CW.
