Also, just to make it extra confusing, Steve looks like this different person (played by actor Kristoffer Polaha) to everyone else.Īnother very problematic point here is that if Steve isn't really Steve, that means Wonder Woman is possibly getting physical with a stranger and not her beloved Steve. In fact, Steve has basically taken over the body of someone who already exists. Steve isn't exactly the same guy she remembers from her past. Steve Trevor (Chirs Pine) isn't who you might think he is in Wonder Woman 1984.īut here's where it gets tricky in the movie.

However, before fully understanding the devious quid pro quo nature of the stone, Diana Prince/Wonder Woman ( Gal Gadot) wishes for the return of Steve and, the next day, he returns. When the Dreamstone grants a wish, it then takes something else of equal importance from the wisher. When you wish for something, there's always some strings attached.Īfter all, it was the God of Lies who gave the stone its power in the first place. The Wonder Woman 1984 plot revolves around a special artifact called the Dreamstone that has the power to grant one wish for whoever holds it - kind of like the horror story concept of the mystical Monkey's Paw. Now Wonder Woman 1984 director Patty Jenkins is defending the controversial choice to bring his character back into Diana Prince/Wonder Woman's life for the new movie.

Whether you love or hate Wonder Woman 1984 (currently playing in select theaters and available to stream on HBO Max) one thing's for sure - Steve Trevor (played by Chris Pine) coming back from the dead is a bizarre twist.Īfter all, when Steve died at the end of 2017's Wonder Woman movie - a story set almost 70 years before 1984 - fans might have been confused how he not only survived his death but also never aged.
