Wonder Woman movie starring Gal Godot as the demigoddess will also focus on her origin story.

During the "Dawn of the Justice League" television special, Chief Creative Officer of DC Comics, Geoff Johns gave an insight into the 2017 film, reported People magazine.

"Wonder Woman's like one of the greatest superheroes out there, but people don't know her origins like they know Superman's origin or Batman's origin. So, what we want to do in the film is really tell people who she is, where she comes from and why she does what she does," Johns said.

"She's an Amazon warrior. She's the best fighter in the DC universe. She has strength and speed and she's been training her whole life for war," he added.
 

Wonder Woman is kind and is on her mission to protect the human world, which her people have abandoned.

"The greatest thing about Wonder Woman is how good and kind and loving she is, yet none of that negates any of her power," director Patty Jenkins said.

The film is scheduled to hit theatres on June 23, 2017.
