Wonder Woman 1984: First Sequel Reactions Are In
The first reactions to Wonder Woman 1984 are now on the internet. Here's what people have to say about the superhero sequel.
While the world is still a few weeks away from seeing Wonder Woman 1984, the first of the press have now seen the film. While they have been sworn to secrecy until December 15th, when the embargo lifts on full-on reviews, we are getting some initial reactions to the WB sequel, and they are positive.
From Den of Geek’s Kayti Burt (um, me)…
From CBR’s Meagan Damore…
From Nerdist’s Amy Ratcliffe…
From Collider and Comics Beat contributor Kay-B…
From IGN’s Terri Schwartz…
From Fandango’s Erik Davis…
From ComicBook.com’s Brandon Davis…
Davis had positive things to say about film villains Max Lord (Pedro Pascal) and Barbara Minerva (Kristen Wiig) in particular…
the pandemic eventually forced the studios’ hand. The sequel is opening on December 16th in UK theaters, and will open on December 25th in the U.S. in both theaters and on HBO Max. Given the current state of COVID-19 in the U.S., presumably most people will be seeing the film from the comfort of their own home.
When we visited the Wonder Woman 1984 set two years ago, Gadot told Den of Geek and other reporters of the relationship: “I think Steve and Diana have a really special dynamic that wasn’t fully—how should I put it?—wasn’t fully explored in the previous movie because we just met and we just built a relationship. And now we have an opportunity to kind of continue from where we stopped last, and now we’re doing it after, at least my character, [having] carried the big loss of him [for] all those years. So having someone that you love so much after so many years, and be[ing] with him again is just, like, great.”
