For those who have been anxiously awaiting a preview of David Thewlis, Harry Potter‘s Remus Lupin, ever since finding out he would be cast in the new Wonder Woman movie, we’ve got not just one but three new TV spots for you featuring our first glimpse of Thewlis as villain Ares!

The first, titled “Together,” features Ares in disguise as Sir Patrick Morgan (David Thewlis), wearing a suit and sporting a mustache. He is seen asking Chris Pine’s Steven Trevor, “Who is this young woman?” in reference to Gal Gadot’s Diana Prince. Steve struggles to answer the question, replying, “She’s my…uh…she and I are…working together, Sir.”

Thewlis makes a brief appearance in the preview titled “Power” as Ares, though without his disguise this time. It features only a glimpse of Wonder Woman fighting Ares, who can be identified by his distinctive armored glove and horned helmet, as well as a short clip of his armored hand surrounded by fire.

The third TV spot, “Goddess” does not appear to feature any new shots of Thewlis, but adds to a few of the same clips from the others with additional scenes hinting at information regarding Wonder Woman’s origin.

To catch Thewlis in action as Ares, make sure to check out Wonder Woman when it is released in theaters in the U.S. on June 2nd!
