It’s no secret that the upcoming Wonder Woman 1984 movie has fans buzzing with excitement. The highly anticipated sequel to the 2017 hit Wonder Woman will feature a star-studded cast, including Gal Gadot as the titular heroine, Chris Pine as Steve Trevor, and Kristen Wiig as the villainous Cheetah. But one thing that fans won’t be seeing in the movie is a romantic relationship between Wonder Woman and Cheetah.
Despite the fact that the two characters have a long history of animosity in the comics, director Patty Jenkins has confirmed that there will be no romantic relationship between Wonder Woman and Cheetah in the upcoming movie. This news has been met with some disappointment from fans, who had hoped to see the two characters explore a different kind of relationship.
However, Jenkins has made it clear that the focus of the movie will be on the friendship between Wonder Woman and Steve Trevor, and that any romantic relationship between Wonder Woman and Cheetah would be a distraction from the main story. Jenkins has also stated that she wanted to keep the movie focused on the themes of friendship and loyalty, and that a romantic relationship between Wonder Woman and Cheetah would not fit into that narrative.
While some fans may be disappointed that Wonder Woman and Cheetah won’t be exploring a romantic relationship in Wonder Woman 1984, it’s important to remember that the movie is still sure to be an exciting and action-packed adventure. With a stellar cast and a story that focuses on the power of friendship, Wonder Woman 1984 is sure to be a hit with fans. So, while we won’t be seeing a romance between Wonder Woman and Cheetah, we can still look forward to an exciting and thrilling movie experience.
Ever since the first trailer for Wonder Woman 1984 was released, there was heavy speculation that Kristen Wiig’s Cheetah and Diana herself will have a romance. Fans were so convinced that this was indeed going to happen. But now Patty Jenkins herself has confirmed that this won’t be happening.
Jenkins once again returns to the DCEU with Gadot, for a sequel to Wonder Woman, which will be yet another period piece. The original film was set in WW1 and the second one is set in the thriving 1980s. It’s got a lot to do with the fact that Wonder Woman doesn’t really age.w Chris Pine will be reprising the role of Steve Trevor despite having died in the first film.
So, What’s Happening?
In the WW1984, Diana is set to square off against a brand new villain in Barbara Ann Minerva, who also goes by Cheetah. Not to mention, there is also Pedro Pascal’s Maxwell Lord, a rich and powerful billionaire in the comics.
As it were, some fans thought that before the pair fell out that will pit them against each other, Diana and Cheetah will actually be in a romantic relationship that Jenkins seems to definitely have heard of. But regrettably, for those pushing for the idea, the director now admits she thought about the possibility of pairing up the women, but sadly that won’t be the case in the movie.
“It might have happened in a different story. But because this plot was so clearly about Steve (Chis Pine’s character who died in the first film) coming back, the whole story was about Steve. It’s all a love story with Steve. There just wasn’t room for two for Diana.”
In any case, we couldn’t be more excited about the return of Wonder Woman. I wasn’t the biggest fan of the first film, but the trailers for 1984 look insane!
