As we gear up for an onslaught of news regarding the film, the star of the film has recently taken to Facebook to express appreciation for her director. 


Gal Godot posted on her page a testament of gratitude for Patty Jenkins, who is helming the Amazonian Princess’ first big budget solo feature.

Godot previously portrayed the character in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice from director Zack Snyder, who served as a producer for this film.

Jenkins has many credits to her name, including the critically acclaimed and Academy Award-winning film Monster.

With Diana Prince’s first solo foray into movie theaters ramps up toward its release date, Godot couldn’t help but heap a ton of praise on Jenkins.

We’ve begun to learn more about the film over the last few weeks such as who the main villain is and what the character will look like.

The Great War-era period piece will focus on Diana’s first steps outside of Thymiscera as she deals with one of the bloodiest campaigns of war in human history.

Before she was Wonder Woman, she was Diana, princess of the Amazons, trained to be an unconquerable warrior. Raised on a sheltered island paradise, when an American pilot crashes on their shores and tells of a massive conflict raging in the outside world, Diana leaves her home, convinced she can stop the threat. Fighting alongside man in a war to end all wars, Diana will discover her full powers…and her true destiny.

Joining Gadot in the international cast are Chris Pine, Connie Nielsen, Robin Wright, David Thewlis, Danny Huston, Elena Anaya, Ewen Bremner and Saïd Taghmaoui. Patty Jenkins directs the film from a screenplay by Allan Heinberg and Geoff Johns, story by Zack Snyder and Allan Heinberg, based on characters from DC Entertainment. Wonder Woman was created by William Moulton Marston.

The film is produced by Charles Roven, Zack Snyder, Deborah Snyder and Richard Suckle, with Rebecca Roven, Stephen Jones, Wesley Coller and Geoff Johns serving as executive producers. Warner Bros. Pictures presents, in association with RatPac-Dune Entertainment, an Atlas Entertainment/Cruel and Unusual production, Wonder Woman.

The film will be released on June 2, 2017.
