Wonder Woman 1984 also stars Chris Pine, Kristen Wiig in key roles. It is unknown at the moment how Chris's character Steve was resurrected after his death in the first film. But, it might have to do something with a wish-granting stone.

Wonder Woman 1984 made Patty Jenkins the highest-paid female director in the world, reportedly. It is unfortunate that the effect of the pandemic on the film might just become two steps forward, one step backwards for female directors.

Talking about the superheroine, Patty has said in an interview with Vanity Fair, "Heroism involves keeping your love and compassion intact while you try to change the world. I love that about Wonder Woman and it was one of the things I felt the most passionate about being maintained, because it was something that I loved about her growing up. She was an inspiration and no part of her made me feel that I couldn’t also be a woman, and also be a mother, and also be a wife or a girlfriend or a partner. She’s a whole-bodied hero who stands for goodness, but also love and compassion and kindness. That’s where it was the most challenging—the world not thinking a female superhero could be powerful."
