Filming on the sequel to 2017's Wonder Woman has wrapped, with Gal Gadot posting several behind-the-scenes images on Instagram to celebrate.

The film, titled Wonder Woman 1984, see Gadot's DC hero face off against Kristen Wiig's Cheetah, with Game of Thrones' Pedro Pascal also onboard in a "pivotal role". Patty Jenkins has returned to direct.

“We did it. Again!!” wrote Gadot wrote. “And as much as the first time shooting Wonder Woman was amazing, this time was even more unique and special. We shot in 4 very different locations in 3 countries, and I’m so soooo proud of the almost 1000 crew members who came to set every day, giving everything they have into our movie.”

She continued: “Couldn’t ask for better partners on this. I’m so lucky to have the one and only Patty Jenkins, as my director. She always has our backs, she gives us the wings to dare, and every day she helped us find the most creative version of ourselves. I am so grateful to call her my friend. And to our AMAZINGly talented cast who made every day enjoyable and fun, thank you!”

“Honestly... words cannot describe this experience. This journey was so demanding and challenging but we all came and did our very best every take, every day, putting our all out there and I’m so proud. Thank you universe for this opportunity. I love this character. And thank you to all of you for being the best fans in the world. It was you that made me push myself every day. I’m so happy and excited, can’t wait to share it with you in 2020!”

Jenkins had previously dropped a bombshell about the sequel, posting a first look at the film that included Chris Pine's Steve Trevor seemingly alive and well in the 1980s, despite the character having sacrificed himself at the end of the first film, set during WWI.

Geoff Johns and David Callaham penned the script with Jenkins. The sequel, which acts as a follow-up to the 2017 blockbuster, that grossed $817 million at the box office, is set for release in cinemas on 5 June 2020.
