We are moving to the year, as the title of the newest film suggests, 1984. Eh, crazy eighties. Disco music, neon lights, spiky hair, and she – a wonderful woman giving spoils to various bastards. This time Wonder Woman saves the world, or at least America, from new villains – Maxwell Lord (Pedro Pascal) and The Cheetah (Kristen Wiig). These anti-heroes may already be familiar to you of DC Comics in the 1980s and 1990s.
The action of the latest film takes place in different years than the first picture from 2017, but our superhero is immortal, so she is invariably beautiful. But – in order not to be boring, it can sometimes change your outfit.
And recently we found out what Diana’s new Wonder Woman costume will be. She revealed herself to us like a golden eagle straight from the sky. An eagle, because with wings and a helmet modeled on a bird’s head. Golden armor blinds enemies with its very appearance. Our heroine first appeared in such clothes in 1996 in the Kingdom Come comic . Lindy Hemming, Oscar winner and creator of the project told ComicBook.com that
This is the most powerful protective armor her mother originally wore, and somehow in this story that I don’t want to reveal, she lands with Diana in Washington.
And he adds that all the armor is real (though it looks like it’s made digitally)
… Because it comes from the goddess’s magical past. We made it from a fabric that Pierre Bohanna invented to use gold and a mirror effect. So every piece was like a mirror, but the challenge was that the mirror couldn’t show the crew. So you can imagine it was really very complicated. Because every time she wears it you can’t see cameras or lights or anything, you know. (…) So it was a cross between a really shiny, wonderful thing from the 1980s, with a kind of magical, almost sometimes transparent, almost sometimes disappearing and sometimes visible technical fabric.
The fabric, let’s add, is lying on the Gal Gadot like a second skin. No wonder, after all, she trained for a year and a half to do well. And from what we can see in the photos, it looks phenomenal. I wonder if this will also be the movie that will debut on the big screen in December 2020?
Do you like the new costume? What do you think?
