On Saturday, July 23, at 11:30 a.m., Warner Bros. Pictures will begin their Hall H presentation. The official press release promises awesome new content for Suicide Squad, The LEGO Batman Movie, Kong: Skull Island, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, and Wonder Woman! Surprisingly enough, no mention of Justice League was made in the company's statement - but who knows what DC will do to surprise their fans?

One of the notable things found in the press release was the first official synopsis for Patty Jenkin's Wonder Woman. We first saw the princess of the Amazons in "Batman v Superman," but now she's all geared up and ready for her solo debut. Aside from the set photos and the snippets of footage we've seen thus far, this new synopsis provides some intriguing new details about the upcoming film. 

It also reveals that Patty Jenkins directed the film from a story by Zack Synder (Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice) & Allan Heinberg, and a screenplay written by Heinberg and Geoff Johns. Surprising, right? Considering Snyder's track record, what could this mean for the fate of Wonder Woman? Also, what did Geoff Johns (screenplay writer for the untitled Batman reboot) bring to the table? Give the synopsis a read, then be sure to share your thoughts in the comment section below!

“Wonder Woman” hits movie theaters around the world next summer when Gal Gadot returns as the title character in the epic action adventure from director Patty Jenkins. 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. Jenkins directs the film from a screenplay by Allan Heinberg and Geoff Johns, story by Zack Snyder & 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 is scheduled for release on June 2, 2017, and will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company.

Wonder Woman's story is written by a guy who's never written a movie and Zack Snyder who's never written a good movie.

And the screenwriters are 2 guys who never wrote a film (love ya comics Johns but if you were paired up with an experience screenplay writer, I'd be down for this).
