Wonder Woman Trailer Breakdown: 20 Things You Need To See

15. Nazi Chemical Warfare

Wonder Woman Battle
Warner Bros.

Proving just how enthusiastically the movie will lean into its historical roots, the trailer briefly shows off a new chemical weapon being built by the Nazis, capable of exploding the eye-holes from a mask and melting the fabric away.

While nobody wants another bizarre DC grimfest, it's refreshing that the filmmakers are at least sensible enough to engage with the reality of world history, and all the unpleasantness that this can entail.

Whether this particular gas will play a large role or not in the movie remains to be seen, but given its destructive potential, it sure seems likely.
