The official synopsis reads:
"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."
It turns out the Amazon warrior women of Greek legend, who live on the secret island of Themyscira, were supposed to protect 'Man's World' – that's our bog-standard patriarchal society to you – but decided it was pretty rubbish and so skipped out on us. But their princess, Diana/Wonder Woman, was never comfortable with that decision.
It will be set during World War I (rather than the classic World War II origin setting for Wonder Woman), as seen in the period stylings of the first teaser. Chris Pine's Steve Trevor is traditionally the first man to stumble across Themyscira in hundreds of years, giving Diana the excuse she needs to leave with him.
So unless we comically misjudged the time in which Batman v Superman lead-in Man of Steel was set (the modern day, right? right??), Wonder Woman is very much a prequel to those two movies. It also makes her considerably older than those young whippersnapper superheroes. In fact, she first retired 5,000 years before they were even born, so they'd better show some respect.
There is some question about which comic book origin the film will follow – the traditional 'made from clay and brought to life by the gods' or the more recent 'the secret daughter of Zeus' story.
Wonder Woman's Amazon family is reportedly getting a new origin, where they were created by Zeus to help in his war against Ares. When Zeus is killed and Ares seriously injured, the king of the god's last act is to provide them with the island sanctuary Themiscyra where the Amazons can escape persecution from their human enemies.
As for the villain of the piece, the rumour that it would be Ares, the ancient Greek god of war have been confirmed. David Thewlis – whose character is still unannounced – is suspected of taking on the role.
Elena Anaya is playing a masked character called Doctor Poison, who seems to have created a gas weapon that threatens to extend the war for years.
Gadot promised Digital Spy that the film would be lighter than Batman v Superman, but not that much lighter by the sounds of it. "It has moments of humour, but it's pretty dark," she told us.
She's also said that she was inspired by Richard Donner's classic, Christopher Reeve-starring Superman, which we couldn't be more happy to hear.
Pine has said that there is a romantic element to the film – presumably between Diana and Steve Trevor.
"It has a Casablanca feel which I don't think we've seen in this universe before," he said at CinemaCon.
Visually, however, director of photography Matt Jensen revealed that he and Jenkins had a surprising influence – the late 19th and early 20th century artist, John Singer Sargent.
And don't worry about hanging around waiting for a post-credits scene, because there isn't one.
