Gal Gadot and Chris Pine are currently back at the Warner Bros Studio in London to do a reshoot of Wonder Woman 1984. Production for the sequel began in the middle of 2018 and finished some six months later.
However, according to a post on Twitter, the lead stars are back on the set to film some of their scenes again. Now, this has fans worried because reshoots delayed and ruined the Justice League movie a few years ago.
But according to We Got This Covered, the reshoots are part of the normal process of filmmaking. With the capable director Patty Jenkins at the helm of Wonder Woman 1984, it's doubtful that this would spell trouble for the sequel.
If anything, the reshoots are likely for some cosmetic adjustments for Wonder Woman 1984. Viewers will get to be the judge of the final product once the film is released in the summer of 2020.
The plot of Wonder Woman 1984 is quite a top-secret, but early reports reveal it will not be a sequel or a follow up to the story of the first film. Since it's the 1980s, however, speculations are that the plot will be in line with the Cold War. Curious fans are also eager to know how Pine's character, Steve Trevor, could return in the movie considering the pilot sacrificed his life and died in the first film.
Also joining the cast of Wonder Woman 1984is Pedro Pascal in a still undisclosed role. Jenkins tweeted a photo of the actor in costume, however, and fans guessed that he could be playing Maxwell Lord, the supervillain in the comic books.
Kristen Wiig has also been cast as the archaeologist Barbara Minerva, also known as Cheetah. Jenkins also teased a photo of the actress in costume, but she's not wearing her villain outfit just yet.
Jenkins co-wrote the screenplay of Wonder Woman 1984 with Geoff Johns, the CEO of DC Comics, and writer Dave Callaham. Filming took the whole cast and crew to four different locations in three countries.
Warner Bros initially planned on releasing the movie for November 2019. However, a summer schedule seems fitting to give the production more time to improve the quality of the film.
"The studio said they really needed it, and then at a certain point they came to us, and they said, 'You know what, you guys are right. Let's go back to the month that you guys released Wonder Woman 1in, and take the extra time," producer Charles Roven said.
