During a recent interview, the director of Wonder Woman and Wonder Woman 1984 was asked about Steven Trevor’s return in the upcoming film. The interviewer seemed a bit confused as to how this might work given the character’s fate in the previous film. Patty Jenkins laughed and assured him that it will all make sense as she had this new film planned out about halfway through the first one:
It’s interesting. I thought of-I thought of what this next movie should be in the middle of making the first movie. So it’s not…it wasn’t a solution to “Oh God that was worked out! Let’s try and jam you in there!” It’s all incredibly important to the story. It makes perfect sense. That’s all I can tell you.

From the sound of things, Patty Jenkins has Steve Trevor’s resurrection in the bag.
As I am sure we all know, Chris Pine’s character died in the final act of Wonder Woman, sacrificing himself to destroy a payload a dangerous new gas that would have killed millions. The character was announced to return to the film but, despite recent rumors, it is still unclear as to how this happens. But from the sound of things, Patty Jenkins has long since had this worked out.
