Diana of Themyscira, also known by hercivilian nameDiana Prince or her superhero titleWonder Woman, is afictionalcharacter in theDC Extended Universe (DCEU), based on theDC Comicscharacter of the same name created byWilliam Moulton Marston andH. G. Peter. First appearing inBatman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, she is portrayed byGal Gadot and later plays a major role in the filmsWonder Woman,Justice League (and its2021 director's cut), andWonder Woman 1984, along with cameo appearances inShazam! Fury of the Gods andThe Flash.
Gadot's performance as Wonder Woman, the first live-action portrayal of the character in cinema, has received critical praise, beginning with her debut inBatman v Superman, where she was considered a highlight. Her performance inWonder Woman was especially praised for its warmth, optimism, and chemistry with her co-stars. However, political backlash in someArab countries led to bans due to Gadot's Israeli background. Her role inJustice League faced criticism for being minimized and objectified, though Zack Snyder's version received more positive feedback.
Diana was born toQueen Hippolyta around 3000 BC on the hidden island ofThemyscira, home to theAmazons, women warriors created byZeus to protect mankind. Hippolyta explains their history to Diana, including howAres became jealous of humanity and orchestrated its destruction. When the other gods attempted to stop him, Ares killed all but Zeus, who used the last of his power to wound Ares and force his retreat. Before dying, Zeus left the Amazons a weapon, the "Godkiller", to prepare them for Ares's return. Hippolyta reluctantly agrees to let her sister, GeneralAntiope, train Diana as a warrior.[a]
At age 8, Diana competes in a race during an Amazonian sporting event. She uses a shortcut to a finish line, but is caught by Antiope. Hippolyta teaches Diana about the harmful effects of cheating and tells her about being patient, for her time to be a hero will come someday.[b]
In 1918, Diana, now a young woman, rescuesCaptain Steve Trevor, a pilot with theAmerican Expeditionary Forces, after his plane crashes off the coast of Themyscira. The island is soon invaded by the landing party of a German cruiser pursuing Trevor. The Amazons engage and kill all the German sailors, but Antiope dies intercepting a German bullet meant for Diana. Interrogated with theLasso of Hestia, Trevor reveals thatWorld War I is raging in the outside world and that he is anAllied spy. He stole a notebook with valuable information from the Spanish chief chemistIsabel Maru, who is attempting to engineer a deadlier form ofmustard gas under the orders of GeneralErich Ludendorff. Believing Ares is responsible for the war, Diana arms herself with the "Godkiller" sword, a shield, the Lasso of Hestia and her suit of armor and sets out on her own, in defiance of her mother, to stop Ares and end the war. She releases Trevor and immediately leaves Themyscira with him to find and destroy Ares.
The two arrive inLondon and Diana is introduced toEtta Candy, Trevor's secretary. She helps Diana acquire some contemporary clothing so she can better fit in and retain her anonymity. Trevor and Diana deliver Maru's notebook to the Supreme War Council, where Patrick Morgan is trying to negotiate an armistice with Germany. Diana translates Maru's notes, revealing that the Germans plan to release the deadly gas at the Western Front. Although forbidden by his commander to act, Trevor, with secret funding from Morgan, recruits Moroccan spy Sameer, Scottish marksman Charlie, and Native American smuggler Chief Napi to help prevent the gas from being released. Diana adopts the surname "Prince" to fit in better at Trevor's suggestion. As the group approaches thetrenches, Prince, unwilling to see the civilians suffer, charges intono man's land and liberates the nearby village of Veld with the aid of the group and Allied forces. The team briefly celebrates, taking a photograph in the village, where Prince and Trevor fall in love.
The following morning, Prince ignores Trevor's advice to remain with Charlie and Napi and scout out the surrounding area. She also enters the castle after incapacitating an aristocratic German woman and stealing her gown as a disguise. She meets Ludendorff, whom she assumes to be the mortal disguise of Ares and plans to kill him before Steve intervenes and prevents her from doing so, fearful that their covers would be blown and result in their deaths too.
Ludendorff then fires the new gas at the battle lines from an artillery gun to the castle houses. Horrified by the result of the gas, Prince blames Trevor for letting it happen as a result of letting Ludendorff live. Prince confronts and fights Ludendorff, who bolsters his own strength by consuming an elixir procured by Maru. She kills him, but is confused and disillusioned when his death does not stop the war.
Morgan appears and reveals himself as Ares. When Prince attempts to kill Ares with the "Godkiller" sword, he destroys it, telling Diana that, as the daughter of Zeus and Hippolyta, she herself is the "Godkiller". He entreats her to help him destroy mankind in order to restore paradise on Earth, but she refuses. Ares attempts to direct Prince's rage and grief at Trevor's death by convincing her to kill Maru, but the memories of her experiences with Trevor cause her to realize that humans have good within them. She spares Maru and redirects Ares' lightning into him, destroying him for good.
In 1984, Diana works at theSmithsonian Museum as an archaeologist under the alias of "Diana Prince" while moonlighting as Wonder Woman. With her new co-worker,Barbara Ann Minerva, becoming envious of Diana. Barbara and Diana help theFBI identify some antiques stolen from a heist foiled by Wonder Woman, noticing that one item, the Dreamstone, contains a Latin inscription claiming to grant the holder one wish.Barbara wishes to become like Diana, but acquires the same superpowers, while Diana unknowingly wishes for Steve Trevor to be alive again, which resurrects him in another man's body; the two are reunited at a Smithsonian gala. However, only Diana can see him as Steve. While in Cairo, Egypt, Diana and Steve tried to get Max Lord to hand the stone back to them after finding out that the stone was actually created and empowered by the gods, Diana claiming that "the power of the stone is too much for Max Lord to handle." After a battle between Wonder Woman and the Emir's armed security team, who now work for Max Lord, Diana gets wounded by a gunshot before Max Lord gets away. Diana phones Barbara to find out where exactly that stone came from and the next morning, Barbara, Diana, and "Steve" discover that the Dreamstone was created and empowered byDolos/Mendacius, the god of lies, treachery, deception, and mischief, also known asDuke of Deception. It grants a user's wish while exacting a toll, which explains why Diana got wounded in the battle because the stone was taking away her powers, unless they renounce the wish or destroy the stone.
Learning from theU.S. President of a satellite system that broadcasts signals globally,Maxwell Lord, whose powers are causing his body to deteriorate, plans to globally grant wishes to steal strength and life force from the viewers and regain his health. Diana and Steve confront him at theWhite House, but Minerva, now aligned with Lord, defeats Prince, escaping with Lord onMarine One. Renouncing her wish and releasing Steve, Diana dons the armor ofAsteria and battles Barbara, who has transformed into acheetah-like creature. Following a brutal match, Diana tackles Cheetah into a lake and electrocutes her, then pulls her out.
She confronts Max Lord and uses herLasso of Truth to communicate with the world through him, convincing everyone to renounce their wishes, then shows Max visions of his own unhappy childhood and of his son, Alistair, who is frantically searching for his father amid the chaos. Max renounces his wish and reunites with Alistair. OnChristmas, Diana meets the man whose body Trevor possessed, and then she is shown flying in the clouds before going to supposedly stop a crime after hearing police sirens wail in the distance.
In 2015, Diana is invited to a gala byLex Luthor whereBruce Wayne encounters her. They are both after encrypted information from Luthor's system, with Diana snagging a decryption device that Wayne plants, but when Diana is unable to extract data from the device, she hands it over to Wayne, who later finds that the files contain information onmetahumans, one of which turns out to be Diana.
Upon hearingSuperman andBatman's fight withDoomsday inGotham City, Diana abandons a flight back to her job inFrance and joins the two heroes in their fight against the monster. Wonder Woman slices off the creature's hand and restrains it using her lasso as Batman stuns it, allowing Superman to kill the monster using akryptonite spear at the cost of his own life. Moved by Superman's sacrifice, Prince later attends his funeral with Wayne, who invites her to help him recruit other metahumans to band together.
Sometime later, Wayne follows up with Prince, sending her a package containing a personal note and thephotographic plate from 1918 depicting her with Trevor and the other World War I fighters, which Luthor had previously used in an attempt to blackmail her.[c] Prince reminisces on her past while looking at the package. She sends an email to Wayne thanking him for retrieving the photographic plate of her and Trevor.[d]
In 2017, Wonder Woman stops a terrorist bomb plot at theOld Bailey in London. Seeing a news report that features a signal fire burning at the Shrine of the Amazons in Greece, Prince realizes that her mother had sent a message from Themyscira to warn her of an impending invasion. She then meets with Wayne in Gotham, explaining the history of the first invasion of Earth by the forces ofApokolips. While Wayne goes afterArthur Curry andBarry Allen, Prince tracks down the elusiveVictor Stone.
Stone is initially hesitant about joining the team despite providing some intel to Prince, but later joins whenSteppenwolf kidnaps his father and several otherS.T.A.R. Labs employees in an attempt to retrieve the lastMother Box. The team rescues the employees and takes the last Mother Box during the skirmish before Aquaman arrives and saves them from a deluge of floodwater. Realizing the potential of the Mother Box, Wayne decides to have the team use it to resurrect Superman, whereas Prince and Curry express skepticism. Allen and Stone exhume Clark Kent's body and the team successfully resurrects him in the facility used to create Doomsday, but Superman, having lost his memories, attacks the group after Cyborg accidentally launches a missile at him. In the skirmish, Steppenwolf takes the last Mother Box from the group as it was left unattended. As Superman leaves with Lois to regain his memories, the five other heroes recuperate at theBatcave. Prince tends to Wayne's wounds as the two apologize for some harsh words towards each other earlier.
Wonder Woman calms down the school girls held hostage by the terrorist group in London and explores the tunnels underneath the Shrine of the Amazons to find imagery of the first invasion of Earth by Apokolips, led byDarkseid. She votes in favor of resurrecting Superman in addition to joining Allen and Stone along with Curry in digging up Clark Kent's corpse. Prince and Curry talk about the historical rivalry between the Amazons andAtlanteans, dismissing it while finding they have more in common than expected.
She is shown to be on-par with Steppenwolf in terms of melee-fighting prowess, though he manipulates her emotions by falsely claiming he killed her mother. After Superman overpowers Steppenwolf and Aquaman impales him following the separation of the Mother Boxes, Wonder Woman lands the killing blow, decapitating the New God after Superman throws him back into the boom tube, with his disembodied head and corpse landing at Darkseid's feet back on Apokolips. Following the team's victory, Prince and Wayne decide to expand the operations of the team, starting by rebuilding Wayne's old manor into their headquarters. Diana is last seen looking towards Themyscira as she contemplates about her fellow Amazons.
In 2021, Prince, alongsideThe Flash,Superman andAquaman are summoned byAmanda Waller to assist the vigilantePeacemaker in fighting a group of parasitic aliens named The Butterflies, but the team arrives too late to help. Peacemaker claims to have met Prince at a party.[1]
Shortly after, Prince, who is aware ofBilly Batson / Shazam and what he had been through, arrives in Mount Olympus and restores theWizard's staff imbuing it with her powers. She then uses it to restore Billy to life. Afterwards, she departs from them.
Soon after, Prince, who appears to save Batman andAlberto Falcone with her Lasso of Truth, encounters Flash, who is also tied up. Prince is nowhere to be found when Allen alters the universe after saving his mother, although he later undoes most of his changes after realizing the consequences of saving his mother.
InZack Snyder's Justice League, Diana and the rest of the Justice League are killed by the unity of the Mother Boxes. This version of events is erased after Barry Allen enters theSpeed Force and reverses time.
InZack Snyder's Justice League, in visions received by Victor of a reality where Darkseid is victorious, Diana is killed in battle during Darkseid's takeover of Earth and is cremated by the Amazons, with parademons all around them.

Despite being one ofDC Comics' flagship superhero characters, Wonder Woman had not been portrayed in live-action film untilBatman v Superman: Dawn of Justice in 2016. The character was the subject of the television seriesWonder Woman, which ran from 1975 to 1979 withLynda Carter portraying the title character.[2] Prior to that, aloosely-based television film with the same name was released in 1974 withCathy Lee Crosby portraying a different version of Wonder Woman.[3] However, the character has been featured inJustice League andJustice League Unlimited shows in theDC Animated Universe and movies inDC Universe Animated Original Movies line, and also appeared inThe Lego Movie withCobie Smulders providing her voice.
Development of a live-action Wonder Woman film began as far back as 1996, with producers and screenwriters such asIvan Reitman,[4] Jon Cohen,[5]Joel Silver,Todd Alcott,[6]Leonard Goldberg, andJoss Whedon attached to the project. Actresses such asSandra Bullock,Mariah Carey,Catherine Zeta-Jones andLucy Lawless were rumored or approached to take on the title role. A film focusing on Wonder Woman duringWorld War II impressed the heads atSilver Pictures, but Silver did not want the film to be aperiod piece, despite purchasing the script to prevent the cinematic rights of Wonder Woman reverting.[7]
By 2013, withWarner Bros. releasingMan of Steel, the studio had opened up the idea of that film creating ashared cinematic universe to compete withone set up byMarvel Comics. In addition to proven characters such asSuperman andBatman, the studio once again put Wonder Woman in consideration for adaptation, along with other characters such asAquaman.[8] DC Entertainment presidentDiane Nelson said Wonder Woman "has been, since I started, one of the top three priorities for DC and for Warner Bros. We are still trying right now, but she's tricky."[9]
Israeli actressGal Gadot was cast as Diana Prince/Wonder Woman forBatman v Superman: Dawn of Justice by directorZack Snyder, having previously turned down the role ofFaora-Ul inMan of Steel due to pregnancy.[10] According toEmpire, Gadot won the role after screen-testing withBatman actorBen Affleck against four other actresses.[11] Like Affleck, Gadot's casting was initially not well received, as many had considered her too "slender" for the role of Wonder Woman.[12] In preparation for the role, Gadot underwent a diet and training regimen, practiced different martial arts and gained 17 pounds of muscle.[13][14]
On Gadot's casting as Wonder Woman, Snyder said "Wonder Woman is arguably one of the most powerful female characters of all time and a fan favorite in the DC Universe. Not only is Gal an amazing actress, but she also has that magical quality that makes her perfect for the role."[15] In 2015,Patty Jenkins accepted an offer to directWonder Woman,[16] based on a screenplay byAllan Heinberg and a story co-written by Heinberg, Zack Snyder,Geoff Johns and Jason Fuchs.[17] Jenkins worked with Gadot on theWonder Woman film, which eventually was conceived as aprequel to Wonder Woman's first appearance inBatman v Superman,[18] placing her in the 1910s andWorld War I (a decision which differs from hercomic book origins as a supporter of theAllies duringWorld War II).[19]
After lukewarm reception toWonder Woman 1984, a third DCEU Wonder Woman film with Jenkins directing and Gadot starring had been under development, but afterJames Gunn andPeter Safran became the new heads of the renamedDC Studios, Jenkins' plans were abandoned by Gunn and Safran as that film did not fit into their plans for what would become theDC Universe, which will effectively be a reboot of the DCEU.[20] However, the duo offered to let Gadot stay on as Wonder Woman in the new timeline despite confirming thatHenry Cavill and Ben Affleck would not portray the DCU's new iterations of Superman and Batman, respectively.[21] Eventually, it was later reported byVariety in October 2023 that none of the DCEU actors cast for Snyder's films would be reprising their respective roles in the DCU, including Gadot as Wonder Woman.[22] Despite the cancellation of the planned third film, Gadot had already shot cameos for bothShazam! Fury of the Gods andThe Flash films during both productions[23] between the months of March and September in 2021.[24][25] They were scheduled to be released as the final wave of completed films for the DCEU before the DCEU continuity was "reset" with The Flash,[26] and Gadot appeared in both films as planned, marking her final outings as Wonder Woman in 2023.
Years after the release of the theatrical version ofJustice League, Gal Gadot revealed that she was uncomfortable shooting several scenes during the reshoots, refusing to film the shot of Barry Allen slipping and falling on Wonder Woman's chest during the battle under Gotham Harbor and utilizing a body double instead. This and replacement directorJoss Whedon's reported on-set behavior led to a dispute, with Whedon allegedly threatening to make Gadot's career "miserable," but after she promptly reported Whedon to studio executives, the situation was "taken care of."[27][28] Gadot was one of several actors in the film, including Affleck,Cyborg actorRay Fisher,Aquaman actorJason Momoa, andIris West actressKiersey Clemons, to voice complaints about working with Whedon during the reshoots.[28]
Zack Snyder's Justice League, the director's cut of the film, omits scenes added in the theatrical cut that have arguably objectified the character, including the controversial scene with Barry Allen.[29] Overall, while many of Diana's scenes are similar between the two versions of the film, several of Diana's lines and nuances are given different contexts, and the director's cut of the film displays her fighting skills more in-depth than the theatrical cut.[30]
"You know Wonder Woman; she's amazing. I love everything that she represents and everything that she stands for. She's all aboutlove andcompassion andtruth andjustice andequality, and she's a whole lot of woman. For me, it was important that people can relate to her."[31]
A Wonder Woman who has extraordinary superpowers—said to be the strongest hero in the world—Diana is a kind, loving, compassionate, and strong-willed person, who, while initially somewhat naïve, has become all the wiser through her time in Man's World. An outspokenegalitarian, she fights for what she believes in and generally for the betterment of mankind through love and mutual understanding, as taught to her by her mother and fellow Amazons. In addition to her general willingness for empathy, however, Diana is also extremely friendly and can step back enjoy the smaller moments in life, as seen in her utter delight in experiencingice cream for the first time inWonder Woman and agreement withSuperman (who, up until the events ofJustice League, she had not spoken to much) about him not missing out on the positive results of their victory overSteppenwolf. Even alongside all of her kindness, compassion, and empathy, Diana is still also a warrior at heart, and when someone she cares about is hurt, becomes far more relentless and ruthless.
DespiteSteve Trevor being Wonder Woman's primary love interest as with the comics, a mutual interest between Diana andBruce Wayne / Batman has been hinted at in the films, with critics noting their chemistry.[32]
Gadot describes her character as having "many strengths and powers, but at the end of the day, she's a woman with a lot ofemotional intelligence".[33] Describing Wonder Woman's compassion, Gadot stated, "It's all her heart—that's her strength. I think women are amazing for being able to show what they feel. I admire women who do." Gadot also stated "I don't want people to think she is perfect", further explaining, "She can be naughty."[34] On Diana leavingThemyscira, a mystical island inhabited only by females, and going to the world inWonder Woman, Gadot stated "When Diana comes to the real world she's completely oblivious aboutgender and society rules, that women are not equal to men."[35]
Describing her role inBatman v Superman, Gadot said, "In this movie you get a glimpse of who Wonder Woman is — she's being introduced into this DC Comics universe. But we were talking about her strengths, her façade, her attitude. Why is she acting the way she is?" On Wonder Woman's battle scene withDoomsday, Gadot stated, "I remember after we did that take, Zack came to me and he said, 'Did you just have a smirk?' I said, 'Yeah.' And he asked, 'Why? I think I like it, but why?' 'Well, if he's gonna mess with her, then she's gonna mess with him. And she knows she's gonna win.' At the end of the day, Wonder Woman is a peace seeker. But when fight arrives, she can fight. She's a warrior and she enjoys the adrenaline of the fight."[31]
Diana's armor starting inBatman v Superman: Dawn of Justice consists of a red armored bustier, blue leathergladiator skirt, tiara, and knee-high boots withhigh heels, and has inspired the redesign of the mainline comics version of Wonder Woman afterDC Rebirth. Along with herbracelets, which act asbracers producing pure concussive force, andlasso, Diana fights with a sword and shield in all her film appearances aside fromWonder Woman 1984. The sword itself inBatman v Superman is inscribed with a quote fromJoseph Campbell, chosen by Zack Snyder:"Life is killing life all the time and so the goddess kills herself in the sacrifice of her own animal."[36]
The armor and that of the other Amazons was designed to emphasize their nature as warriors, but with femininity also in mind, according toWonder Woman directorPatty Jenkins and costume designerLindy Hemming.[37] Jenkins elaborates, "To me, they shouldn't be dressed in armor like men. It should be different. It should be authentic and real ... andappealing to women." When asked about the decision to give the Amazonsheeled sandals, Jenkins explained that they also have flats for fighting, adding "It's totalwish-fulfillment ... I, as a woman, want Wonder Woman to be sexy, hot as hell, fight badass, and look great at the same time ... the same way men want Superman to have ridiculously huge pecs and an impractically big body. That makes them feel like the hero they want to be. And my hero, in my head, has really long legs."[38]
In the animated end credits sequence in the 2019 filmShazam!, Wonder Woman was seen punching a subdued villain before riding in the Batmobile with Shazam.
Clips of Gadot as Wonder Woman as seen inWonder Woman 1984 are featured in a 2021DirecTV advertisement along with professional tennis playerSerena Williams, with Williams being inserted into the film dressed as Wonder Woman after a customer inadvertently merges the two figures on his television screen.[39]
Gadot's Wonder Woman appears as skins inmobile versions of the video gamesInjustice: Gods Among Us andInjustice 2. She is also featured as a character in the DC Movie Pack forLego DC Super-Villains.

Upon Wonder Woman's appearance inBatman v Superman, Jordan Hoffman ofThe Guardian noted in an ambivalent review of the film that Gadot's performance was the "best thing about the film".[40] Cynthia Fuchs ofPopMatters added in a similar review of the film that "Wonder Woman remainsBatman v Superman's most compelling story, precisely because it's untold."[41]
InWonder Woman, Gadot's performance received a largely positive response from critics along with the film as a whole. Critics praised her chemistry with co-starChris Pine and optimistic and lighthearted take on the character as opposed to that on other characters in the DCEU at that point.[42][43][44][45] Elise Jost ofMoviepilot specifically observed that "Gadot's take on Wonder Woman is one of those unique cases of an actor merging with their story, similar toRobert Downey Jr.'sTony Stark. Gal Gadot is Wonder Woman, and Wonder Woman is Gal Gadot." She also praised Gadot's interpretation of Wonder Woman as the one in which Gadot "absolutely nails the character's unwaveringly positive outlook on life. She's a force of nature who believes in the greater good; her conviction that she's meant to save the world is stronger than her bullet-deflecting shield. She's genuine, she's fun, she's the warm source of energy at the heart of the movie."[46]
However, there was some backlash in some Arab countries such asLebanon andQatar, which bannedWonder Woman due to Gadot'sIsraeli citizenship.[47][48] Other countries such asTunisia andAlgeria saw the film pulled out of festivals due to Gadot's citizenship and military service.[49][50]Jordan also reportedly considered a ban, but relented as there was no legal precedent for it.[51]
In the theatrical release ofJustice League, one of the biggest criticisms of the film was the scaling back of Wonder Woman's role and her allegedobjectification by the film's creators,[52] especially during the film's reshoots.[53] In addition,Wonder Woman directorPatty Jenkins lambasted Diana's portrayal in the theatrical cut, saying that it contradicted with the character's portrayal in her film and Zack Snyder's version ofJustice League.[54] Wonder Woman's arc and depiction inZack Snyder's Justice League received better reviews.[30]
InWonder Woman 1984, Gadot once again received praise for her performance as Wonder Woman, though the film received mixed reviews.[55]Mick LaSalle of theSan Francisco Chronicle praised Gadot, saying, "Her performance here has dignity and earned emotion" and called her the best thing about the film and "She was the best thing in the first installment, too, but that was an excellent movie. This one isn't."[56] In addition, Diana's decision to have sex with Steve Trevor, who was actually possessing another man's body, was subject to controversy.[57][58][59]
Gadot has received numerous nominations and awards for her portrayal of Diana Prince.
