‘Warrior goddess’ Gal Gadot reunites with her lover who died 66 years ago

Wonder Woman 1984 (roughly translated: Warrior Goddess 1984 ) is the sequel to its predecessor released 2 years ago. The first film brought Warner Bros. over 821 million USD, becoming one of the best-selling works that year. The work follows the great warrior Diana (Gal Gadot) of Themyscira on her journey to eliminate evil and violence. If the first part stops at the end of World War I in 1918 and the death of Diana’s lover Steve Trevor (played by Chris Pine), then this second part is set in 1984, or 66 years ago. after.
At the beginning of the nearly 2-minute trailer, director Patty Jenkins led the audience into a luxurious but cold apartment, and the goddess Diana immediately appeared wearing the familiar melee armor. After more than 60 years, the pink shadow of Themyscira, although now a successful woman in a flashy world, still lives alone. Diana’s story seems to be located in the middle of America in the 1980s. The 1980s were prosperous years for the country in many cultural aspects, where entertainment areas sprang up like mushrooms, many movies and shows. quality television shows as well as dance floors operating at full capacity. All that prosperity is expressed through frames with strong, visually appealing colors and a pounding music background inherited from the Disco music of the past decade.

Even though she is alone, the actress from Themyscira still appears confident in the modern world . Insider revealed an interesting detail at the beginning of the trailer about the apartment where Wonder Woman appears. That could be where her young lover lived and the beauty stopped by to visit (detail of the photo frame with Diana and the words Trevor’s Ranch). Or it could be her own apartment

Although she is a beautiful woman in modern times, no longer strange when she first ventured into the human world like the first part, Gal Gadot ‘s character still creates a feeling of familiarity with the audience with her exciting fighting scenes. eye. But what surprised viewers was that the warrior goddess’s boyfriend of many years suddenly “came back from the grave”, making her extremely emotional.
However, after a brief reunion, the following quick frames of the trailer show them joining hands again to fight against the enemy. And none other than two fierce villains coming out of DC comics: Maxwell Lord (Pedro Pascal) and Barbara Ann Minerva/Cheetah (Kristen Wiig). It’s possible that the close combats between Diana and her lover with their enemies in the trailer are against the nefarious schemes of both of these villains. However, if Maxwell Lord, a supervillain with the ability to manipulate the minds of other superheroes, portrayed by filmmakers through many movies and TV shows, reveals his dark ambition in this trailer, then Ann Minerva seems more secretive. Because right from the beginning of the trailer, Maxwell Lord immediately reveals his true nature and Ann Minerva is Diana’s close sister.

These two comic book villains promise to be surprising elements in Warrior Goddess 1984 because, according to the trailer, Wonder Woman has to use many “genuine” toys to fight. It was the rope of truth that she used to swing herself through Zeus’s lightning bolts, the golden armor with the ability to withstand infinite force and the wings that allowed the beauty to fly through the air.

Playing the villain Maxwell Lord, Pedro Pascal, the actor known for his role in the famous Game of Thrones series , gives the audience a strange feeling. In a scene in the trailer, after Diana and Steve Trevor meet again, Maxwell Lord’s meaningful voice immediately says: “Now, I bring back what I want to revive.”

However, how Chris Pine’s character comes back to life after 66 years but is still young, beautiful, and full of vitality is something many fans wonder about. Insider revealed that this character is most likely a “trick” by filmmakers to deceive the audience, because the evil Maxwell Lord can use his abilities to create another Steve Trevor. Although it is just a “conspiracy theory”, it shows that, despite her superior fighting ability, Wonder Woman is currently facing equally talented enemies. This promises to help the movie set in 1984 become a box office “bomb” next summer. The work is expected to premiere on June 5, 2020.
