Wonder Woman: Check out Samantha Win’s Never-Before-Seen Pre-Viz!

Playing both the Kryptonian warrior Car-Vex in “Man of Steel” and the Amazon Euboea in “Wonder Woman” and “Zack Snyder’s Justice League”, Sam’s talents as both a stuntwoman and martial artist have made her a great contributor to crafting the action scenes of all three superhero movies.

When it comes to Wonder Woman specifically, Sam also channeled Diana Prince herself in an early battle scene pre-viz for the movie, which she released on social media just recently, see below!

Sam also explained some of the behind-the-scenes work and talent behind the astonishing pre-viz, which can also be read below.

One definitely hopes that Samantha Win’s career in action movies continues its upward trajectory after the energy she’s brought to her stunt career and to Chambers in “Army of the Dead”.
