After smashing box office records this year, Wonder Woman received the loudest cheers among the DC superheroes gathered on Saturday at San Diego's annual Comic-Con to present new footage and trailers for Warner Bros' expanding comic book film franchise. A teaser of Warner Bros' upcoming superhero films shown to the 6,500 attendees at the panel gave a glimpse of Wonder Woman II, a presumed sequel to June's Wonder Woman movie that is on track this weekend to become the second-highest grossing movie of 2017. The latest trailer picks up after the death of Superman from last year's Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and shows Batman and Wonder Woman joined by the Flash, Cyborg and Aquaman to fight supervillain Steppenwolf. Wonder Woman says: "They said age of heroes would never come again," as Batman tells her, "it has to." The avid fan base at Comic-Con, a gathering of pop and nerd culture fans, were also shown footage of Warner Bros' upcoming sci-fi films Ready Player One and Blade Runner 2049.
