“If no one else will defend the world, then I must...”
DIRECTOR Patty Jenkins
STARRING Gal Gadot, Chris Pine,
Robin Wright, David Thewlis
‘The future of justice
begins with her...’
After what seems
like an unfeasibly long wait,
the Wonder Woman movie is
finally here and we’re thrilled
to report that it’s everything
we hoped for and more. Much,
much more...
Both likeable and kick-ass,
Gal Gadot is simply superb
in the role of the Goddess of
Truth, while Chris Pine offers
sterling support as earnest
fighter pilot – and comic-book
favourite – Steve Trevor.
Set at the height of the First
World War, the plot sees Trevor
crashing his plane into the
ocean, before being rescued

Gal Gadot was cast in
the iconic role of
Wonder Woman after
wowing director Zach
Snyder during the
audition process for
Batman v Superman:
Dawn of Justice (in
which the Goddess of
Truth makes an
extended cameo).
“The thing with Gal is
that she’s strong, she’s
beautiful, and she’s
a kind person, which is
interesting, but fierce
at the same time,”
Snyder revealed.
by an armour-clad warrior
princess. When he awakes,
he finds himself on the island
of Themyscira, a mystical
paradise populated by an all-
female tribe. Trevor tells the
women about the Great War
raging around the world and
his rescuer, Diana, offers her
assistance – little realising the
life-changing adventure that
awaits. Of course, no comic-
book movie would be complete
without a nefarious villain or
two and the film has a cracking
pair of baddies in the form of
David Thewlis’ Ares, the God of
War, and Elena Anaya’s sinister
Doctor Poison. Boo hiss!
Did we mention that the
lasso of truth also makes an
appearance? No? Well, it does
– and it’s a thing of wonder.
