Hera, give me strength!
TheWrap reports (we speculated)that Chris Pine has signed up to star opposite Gal Gadot in the upcoming Wonder Woman film. Chris will play Steve Trevor, the love interest to Gal’s Amazonian warrior.
As we previously published, Steve Trevor was an intelligence officer in the United States Army during World War II whose plane crashed on Paradise Island, the isolated homeland of the Amazons. He was nursed back to health by the Amazon princess Diana, who fell in love with him and followed him when he returned to the real world. There she became Wonder Woman (and his co-worker, Diana Prince).
Wonder Woman will be introduced in next year’s Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice before her solo film hits theaters on June 23, 2017.
Warner Bros. and Chris’ reps have yet to confirm the report.
