Wonder Woman Gal Gadot in new Batman v. Superman film: First look from Comic-Con

THE first image of new-look Wonder Woman has been unveiled at Comic-Con — and fans see less than convinced about her makeunder.

THE film is still almost two years away from release, but eager fans have been given their first glimpse of Wonder Woman in the upcoming DC Comics blockbuster, Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice.

Played by Israeli model and actor Gal Gadot (Fast & Furious, Date Night), the new-look Wonder Woman’s outfit is a world away from the colourful tube-top and hot pants rocked by Lynda Carter in the TV version of Wonder Woman back in the 70s.

The new look. Hit or miss?

As with the picture of Ben Affleck as Batman revealed a few days ago, it seems the look for Wonder Woman circa 2016 (the film is due for release in April of that year) is dark and brooding — with a touch of the Xena: Warrior Princess, might we add.

The Wonder Woman of the 1970s, played by Lynda Carter: fighting crime with fashion.

So far, fan reaction to this makeover (or under?) has been mixed:

is she called Wonder Woman because she is wondering how she can fight crime in those heels

Part Xena/part dominatrix. What did the world expect from Zack Snyder's Wonder Woman?

Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman looks pretty great, but can we get more color in the costume? My notes... :) #wonderwoman pic.twitter.com/6ysgr4a7sG

Okay but for real, can we just stop putting Wonder Woman in high heels? I think a Greek warrior person, of all people, should get flats.
