Wonder Woman producer Charles Roven has offered his thoughts what stands Diana apart from other DC and Marvel superheroes.
In exactly one month, Warner Bros. will introduce the world to the first ever female-led superhero film that will play a crucial role in determining the future of female-led blockbusters in the entertainment industry.
The film set during World War I follows Diana Prince (Gal Gadot) after Steve Trevor (Chris Pine), an air force officer crash lands on the island of Themyscira — the home of the Amazons — and informs them of the great war going on in the outside world. Diana finds herself compelled to live up to her sacred duty to defend the world and enter the conflict as she believes can help bring an end to the war.
In an interview with Sci-Fi Now, Roven explained the biggest different between the superheroine and the most popular male superheroes of today is that Diana Prince (Gal Gadot) goes against the reluctant hero archetype as she has desired to be a hero for most of her life:
