Ahead of a U.S. release this Friday, and a London Film Festival appearance in a couple of days, a new trailer for Professor Marston & The Wonder Women has landed online. The new trailer appeared at the New York Comic Con at the weekend. Here’s a new poster released at the con for Stateside promotion.
Luke Evans, Rebecca Hall, Bella Heathcote, and Connie Britton lead the cast of the true story, the plot of which we’ve posted below.
In a superhero origin tale unlike any other, the film is the incredible true story of what inspired Harvard psychologist Dr. William Moulton Marston to create the iconic Wonder Woman character in the 1940’s. While Marston’s feminist superhero was criticized by censors for her ‘sexual perversity’, he was keeping a secret that could have destroyed him. Marston’s muses for the Wonder Woman character were his wife Elizabeth Marston and their lover Olive Byrne, two empowered women who defied convention: working with Marston on human behavior research — while building a hidden life with him that rivaled the greatest of superhero disguises.
Watch the brand new U.S. trailer below. The film opens in U.K. cinemas on 10th November 2017.
