Steve Trevor in Wonder Woman 1984: A Fresh Start or a Clue?

As the Wonder Woman franchise continues to evolve, the character of Steve Trevor has been a significant point of curiosity for fans. In the 2019 movie Wonder Woman 1984, Steve Trevor is not only absent but also dead at the hands of the plane explosion. However, within the vast universe of Wonder Woman comics, Steve Trevor's fate remains uncertain, leading to various theories and speculations about his appearance in this new film.

Surviving the Plane Explosion?

One theory revolves around the possibility that Steve Trevor survived the plane explosion. According to some comic book versions, Steve Trevor was captured by the villains. This captor might have kept him alive, offering him a chance to escape and return. Alternatively, Steve Trevor could have been a clone, a possibility that would align well with the technologically advanced Cold War era portrayed in Wonder Woman 1984.

Director Patty Jenkins' Vision

During an interview, Patty Jenkins, the director of Wonder Woman 1984, stated that the film represents a fresh start for Wonder Woman. However, she did not mean it as a complete reboot, but rather a new narrative that feels disconnected from the previous franchise. This new storyline will not heavily reference the events of Wonder Woman (2017). Instead, it will mark a significant shift in setting, moving away from the World War II backdrop of the first movie and placing the characters in the Cold War era.
