“Wonder Woman can be very charming and warm and have so much compassion and love for the world. She can be soft and naive. At the same time, she just happens to be this demigoddess who can beat the shit out of you and can be a super badass and smart and confident. Ultimately, she’s very relatable.“ – Gal Gadot as Diana Prince/Wonder Woman in the DC Extended Universe
Patty Jenkins has confirmed that Wonder Woman 2 will be another period piece, this time set in the 1980s. Although most of the DCEU has been set in a chronological order, Wonder Woman has been the rare exception. Though Wonder Woman first appeared in the film franchise during Batman V Superman, the majority of her debut movie was set during World War I, the earliest that any superhero movie story has been set.
There was heavy speculation that Wonder Woman 2 would follow suit, given the ending of Diana’s debut. Wonder Woman has a rather bittersweet ending with Diana mourning the death of Steve Trevor but still resolving to help humanity and be a part of the world. This was at odds with Diana’s story in both BvS and Justice League, where she was re-entering the world after a long absence. It appears that among many other things, Wonder Woman 2 will answer the lingering mystery of Diana’s disappearance.
“Wonder Woman’s bracelets have been kind of like Captain America’s shield or Wolverine’s claws; they’re known more for who’s using them than the objects themselves. One thing almost anyone who knows anything about Wonder Woman knows is that her bracelets are bulletproof, and she uses them as shields to protect herself. A common pose for Wonder Woman is holding up her arms while bullets bounce off her bracelets. In 2009’s “Wonder Woman” #34, she learned that by clashing her bracelets together, she can summon lightning bolts straight from Olympus at her enemies. Another cool trick she’s gained from her bracelets is the ability to create shockwaves by smashing them together.”
