![]() We know that Diana works in museums and that, in the comics, Minerva’s career would put them in the same circles-we’ll come back to that a little later-so could it be as simple as a personal jealousy or competition? I’d hope not, as there’s far more interesting and complex ways for the pair to interact. ![]() We also get more than one moment in the new trailer where Diana and Barbara face down, building on the idea that the pair have a relationship before Barbara fully transforms. Here, that seems to be the power for Barbara to fight Wonder Woman, who the transformed woman believes has “had everything” whereas people like Barbara have “had nothing.” Perhaps this is in relation to the idea of superheroes in a mortal world? Or could it be that Barbara found out about the existence of Themyscira through her work and gained a simmering resentment for the female-led island where brilliant women live lives of strength and harmony?

Barbara seems to be a mousy, quiet, and polite young woman who goes through a transformation thanks to Maxwell Lord’s promise that he can change peoples lives. Though the trailer didn’t give too much away, what was clear is that this is a very different version of Cheetah. But, from the new trailer, it seems like that origin will be drastically changed, focusing on the movie version of Cheetah’s relationship with Maxwell Lord. ![]() In the comics, Barbara is an archaeologist from the British isles who, in an Indiana Jones-esque adventure, becomes imbued with the spirit of a powerful deity known as Urzkartaga.

Peter, but has appeared in the comics in multiple guises. The character of Cheetah was created-like Diana-by William Moulton Marston and H. Wonder Woman 1984 will apparently still be hitting screens in October of this year and, when it does, the film will introduce fans to one of Princess Diana of Themyscira’s most famed rogues.
