![]() I just hope that they have the ability to survive until that happens. I’m convinced that once the pandemic is over, the theaters will be back. So that’s how I feel about the moviegoers as well…I think people still want to have the full-360 event of enjoying a movie in the cinema. There’s nothing that can replace that experience of being there live and hearing it in the right volume with the atmosphere and all the people in the crowd. I remember when music became super accessible from Spotify and Apple and all that, everyone worried about what is it going to do to concerts and everything? Whenever there’s a good concert of an artist that I love, I would always prefer going to the concert. I know it’s only supposed to be a one-year plan, but do you think people are going to get too used to watching movies in their living rooms? Is it going to hurt theaters? I was surprised by the announcement as well. The discussion that we had was personal only about our project. announced its entire 2021 slate was going to HBO Max? People like Christopher Nolan were not happy and saying that filmmakers weren’t being treated fairly. It wasn’t an easy decision, but we started discussing this a few weeks before the announcement. wanted to put the movie on HBO Max and in theaters simultaneously?Ī few weeks before we announced. And he completely looked like someone from the ’80s. But in real life, he actually got himself his own fanny pack and he used to ride a bicycle around the sets or locations, wherever we were, and come visit us. He’s the only one who can pull off this look, honestly. How much did you laugh every time Chris put on one of his outfits? We wanted her to look timeless and elegant, but to look like she’s in the ’80s. ![]() We felt that Diana should always look timeless. You had some of the high pants and shoulder pads, but Kristen Wiig was in the whole aerobics thing. I noticed they didn’t put you in too much ’80-ish clothing. We wanted to touch on “When is it too much? When are we just wanting more and we’re not thinking about what’s the cost of our want?” Now I have to talk to you about the ’80, because I’m a child of the ’80s. We wanted to touch upon that…And I think that in the past few years, truth and fake news and all of these issues had been a hot potato, a hot topic. And when we discussed the plot for the second one, we already found the world was going to a dark place. ![]() The first chapter was about love and the birth of a hero. We felt like the Wonder Woman saga should be like the Bible. Before the script was written, Patty and I already discussed the story for this movie while we were shooting the first “Wonder Woman” back in 2016. The message of the movie really could be: Be careful what you wish for. We never tried to mimic Trump or anything. But we never tried to mimic anybody else. And along with Patty, they just created this character. I know from Pedro while we were shooting the movie, that at a certain point, he just focused on the page and what was there. He is a regular person who wants to be all these things that you would see on TV. ![]() The thing about Maxwell Lord in our movie, unlike the comics, is that he’s more complex because he’s not just an evil villain. And I think that Patty and Dave and Geoff - the writers - really took Gordon Gekko’s personality. And then we’re like, “Hmm.” Maxwell Lord has so many different versions in the comic books. It’s interesting because when we shot it, we didn’t really think about it until we got to the White House. I’m a television personality and a businessman.” How could we not think it’s Trump? What’s your reaction when hear people say that Maxwell Lord is Donald Trump? Even one of his lines is “I’m not a con man. It’s about truth and the power of truth and hope. The movie is about something that is much more simple. I think there’s some political elements just because it’s the nature of the world and we’re dealing with some subjects that can easily be connected to politics. No, I don’t think it’s a political movie. And the fact that we’re going to share it with everybody right now for the holidays is the best feeling. We shot the movie back in 2018 and the movie was ready to be shared almost a year ago and we just kept on pushing and pushing because of COVID. How happy are you that people are finally going to see “Wonder Woman 1984”? Pedro Pascal joins the franchise as the villainous Maxwell Lord, as does Kristen Wiig as nerdy anthropologist Barbara Minerva, who transforms into another Wonder Woman nemesis called Cheetah. “Wonder Woman 1984,” which will be released in theaters and on HBO Max on Christmas Day, reunites Gadot with Chris Pine as well as director and co-writer Patty Jenkins.
