Chris Pine Roped In For Wonder Woman

Captain Kirk from the Star Trek reboot series has been roped in for Warner Bros. Pictures‘ Wonder Woman. Chris Pine will play Diana Prince/Wonder Woman’s love interest Captain Steve Trevor. Talking with the Toronto Sun, the actor also stated that the movie will be set during the World War I era.

Chris revealed, “Steve Trevor is a rogue-ish, cynical realist who’s seen the awful brutish nature of modern civilization. He’s a worldly guy, a charming guy and it’s going to be a great, fun film. There are some incredibly deep, interesting and morally relevant themes. Patty is just directing the daylights out of it. It’s shot beautifully, feels so wonderfully period, but also has this wonderful pop sensibility”.

Talking about the setting, the actor stated, “It’s a period we don’t see often; it’s usually World War II. Our costume design is incredible. We have scenes with, like, 500 extras all in period dress. I’d never been on a film with extras casting as beautifully done as it is here. It highlights a really important point. When background casting is done well, it can make or break a scene. I’ve got people in deep background that have entire lives. It’s awesome, it’s actual make-believe land”.

Gal Gadot will be reprising her role as Wonder Woman as she will first be seen in costume in Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice. Wonder Woman will be released on June 23, 2917.
