"Wonder Woman 1984," directed by Patty Jenkins and starring Gal Gadot, has just launched in Italy on digital platforms via Warner Bros. Set in 1984, the plot revolves around Diana Prince, an archaeologist at the Smithsonian, who faces off against new foes, Max Lord (played by Pedro Pascal) and Cheetah (Kristen Wiig), while juggling her own dreams. The film raked in $16.7 million at the North American box office when it released during Christmas, the highest opening for a film during the pandemic. Jenkins emphasizes themes of desire and sacrifice, as Diana navigates modern pleasures. Gadot dons the Golden Eagle Armor, which has 110 pieces (280 with wings), first introduced in Kingdom Come #3. Max Lord is portrayed as a flawed father, while Barbara Ann's transformation into Cheetah is explored.
