Thanks to Entertainment Weekly, we have a piece of Wonder Woman concept art along with details from Gal Gadot, director Patty Jenkins and executive producer Geoff Johns.
The heroic moment, which is depiction of the above concept art in live-action, is about halfway through the film, that defines the character for not just the audience but also for herself. While the setting is set in a no man’s land, that pitted the English against the Germans, no land can stop Diana Prince from being active and doing something heroic.
Prince takes it upon herself to cross the land, to save the women and children that are being threatened by the Germans. “It’s a very powerful moment,” Gadot says. “We have a character committing to her true self, doing what she believes needs to be done.”
EW provided a few more plot points that goes as follows:
Diana is thrust toward her destiny after American intelligence officer Steve Trevor (Chris Pine) crashes near her island, pursued by the German army. Trevor has discovered that German general Erich Ludendorff (Danny Huston) has plans to release a chemical super weapon, potentially killing millions. Diana wants to help — convinced that this evil could only be the work of Ares, the God of War.
Trevor escorts Diana to England, where she catches her first glimpse of industrialized London, or Man’s Land, a world she doesn’t quite understand, specifically the era’s antiquated gender and social norms. But it’s this battlefield scene that marks the first time Diana reveals her iconic garb.
Jenkins equates this specific battlefield moment to Superman ripping apart his dress shirt to unveil the S across his chest: “It’s when she says, ‘Enough is enough.’”
Executive producer and co-head of DC Films Geoff Johns added, “[This scene] reminds me of when Superman caught Lois and caught the helicopter [in the 1978 movie].” Johns continued with, “But this one is even more visceral.”
