Back in September, a report surfaced that Warner Bros.‘Wonder Womanwill be partially shot in Italy. Many had assumed this location would be used for scenes in Diana Prince’s homeland ofThemyscira. Earlier this month, producerDeborah Snyderconfirmed that was true. Today, we have our first look at the action happening in Italy with new set photos courtesy ofThe Daily Mail, which featureGal GadotandChris Pine’s characters meeting for what looks to be the first time.
The photos were taken from a “secret beach location” in Italy, where a beachfront battle is seen taking place, with a number of soldiers aiming rifles at an unseen enemy. We also get another look at one ofWonder Woman’s new costumes, which was previously teased last week in a photo of Themyscira’sAmazon Warriors, featuringGal Gadotas Diana Prince,Connie Nielsenas Diana’s mother,Queen Hippolyta, and her two military aunts - General Antiope (Robin Wright) and Antiope’s lieutenant, Menalippe (Lisa Loven Kongsli).
Last April, a report teased thatWonder Womanwill havesix costumechanges, including a “dive suit” and the iconicblue and red costume, which we saw in photos from last month. We haven’t seen the “dive suit” quite yet, and it isn’t known if we’ll get to see the other costumes, since principal photography is expected to wrap soon. Themyscira is just one of three settings for the movie, which will also be set in World War I London and present day, which will tie intoJustice League Part 1.
Wonder Womanwill serve as an origin story for the youngPrincess Diana, who is destined to become the fiercest woman warrior of all time. The women you see in the photo below will help raise and train Diana. Hippolyta, a revolutionary leader, struggles to shelter her only daughter from the outside world. Antiope, who trains Wonder Woman to fight, is preparing her to deal with that world. The current box office championBatman v Superman: Dawn of Justicehelped set up this origin story with a scene where Bruce Wayne discovers a photo of Diana,Chris Pine’s Steve Trevor, and other characters from 100 years ago.
