Wonder Woman Steals the Mythical "God Killer" Sword in New Movie Photo
A new photo from Patty Jenkins' Wonder Woman has been released featuring Gal Gadot stealing the Amazons' mythical sword, which is known as the “god killer.” The image comes from EW, who explains that this is the moment in the story where Wonder Woman disobeys her mother, Queen Hippolyta (Connie Nielsen) and "breaks into the heavily guarded armory on her idyllic all-female island of Themyscira" to take the sword before "heading to Europe to help save humanity." The director explains:
“This is her moment. She’s heard all the terrible things about man’s land. But she’s also heard that mankind is in need and under duress. This is her great moment to make the decision to be the one to try and save them.”
I really hope that this movie turns out as awesome as the trailers make it out to be. It looks like it could be the best DC movie yet.
Before she was Wonder Woman, she was Diana, princess of the Amazons, trained to be an unconquerable warrior. Raised on a sheltered island paradise, when an American pilot crashes on their shores and tells of a massive conflict raging in the outside world, Diana leaves her home, convinced she can stop the threat. Fighting alongside man in a war to end all wars, Diana will discover her full powers…and her true destiny
