8) The Origin Story
Like most DC Comics characters, Wonder Woman has a few different origin stories. The one which lasted the longest revolved around her being a clay figure created by her mother Queen Hippolyta before being brought to life by Olympian deities. More recently, Zeus has been confirmed as being her father, something which has given the character’s comic book series the chance to shine a spotlight on a different sort of mythology.
Based on Diana’s comments to Steve Trevor in the trailer, it appears as if we may be getting a mixture of the two as she confirms that she was brought to life by Zeus. The hero says she has no father, but it honestly wouldn’t be that surprising for it to be revealed along the way that she actually does. Either way, this is an intriguing reveal and one that’s piqued our interest greatly.
