Chris Pine Makes a Surprise Return to the Set of Wonder Woman Sequel in Virginia Alongside Gal Gadot
Chris Pine and Gal Gadot were recently spotted on the set of Wonder Woman: 1984 in Alexandria, Virginia. This was a surprise for fans as it was the first time the two actors were seen together filming the highly-anticipated sequel. Director Patty Jenkins had just shared an image of Pine from the movie on Twitter, adding to the excitement.
However, some fans are puzzled by Pine’s presence in the sequel since his character was killed off in the first film. Additionally, the setting of Wonder Woman: 1984 is in, well, 1984, which is quite a jump from the WWI setting of the original movie.
Returning for the sequel, Gal Gadot and Chris Pine were seen in new images from the filming of Wonder Woman 1984, shot in Virginia. Just like in the realm of comic books, characters often find ways to come back to life through concepts like time travel, resurrection, or alternate realities. One popular theory suggests that Pine could be portraying the son of his previous character, Steve Trevor, in this installment. The upcoming movie takes place in the vibrant 1980s, and the outfits worn by both actors perfectly captured that retro aesthetic. Gadot looked stunning in a vintage cream suit paired with a stylish oversized white blouse.
Fans are scratching their heads at Pine’s unexpected casting, considering his character met his demise in Patty Jenkins’ blockbuster film just a year ago.
Speculations: It’s a common trend in comic books for characters to make miraculous comebacks from death. Theories swirling around include the possibilities of time travel, resurrection, and alternate dimensions as reasons for these resurrections.
Taking a trip back to 1984 with the follow up, it was clear that both stars nailed the retro style with their wardrobes on Wednesday.
Chris chose to wear black trousers and a cropped navy bomber jacket, a fitting choice considering his past as a World War I pilot. To complete his outfit, he added a navy striped vest and a sturdy brown belt. Mimicking the style of the time, he rolled up his sleeves and paired the ensemble with cream Nike sneakers.
Forgot it at home: The signature Wonder Woman costume was nowhere to be found.
Totally on trend in the 1980s: Gadot totally slayed in a vintage loose cream suit paired with a stylish oversized white blouse.
Completing the ensemble, she paired a navy striped waistcoat with a sturdy brown belt.
Gal, of course, always had her sleeves rolled up in true Miami Vice style.

Resembling his father: Some speculate that Pine might be portraying Trevor’s son in the upcoming film. Despite Steve looking as youthful as he did in the 1910s, the setting and everyone’s style suggest a Reagan Era backdrop. In the 2017 Wonder Woman movie, the military pilot sacrifices himself to stop a German gas attack, leaving fans wondering about his return in the sequel. Gadot, who plays the iconic superhero, teased fans on Twitter with a photo of Wonder Woman looking at a set of twelve TV screens.
