WB Pushed for Wonder Woman’s Massive Ares Fight Over Original Ending

preview

Patty Jenkins reveals Warner Bros. pushed for&nbsp; to end with a massive battle against Ares instead of&nbsp;an original smaller conclusion. Though Gal Gadot's Diana Prince, aka Wonder Woman, entered the DCEU in 2016, her first solo adventure didn't come until a year later with&nbsp;Wonder Woman. Jenkins directed the movie, which sees Diana venture away from her home of Themyscira and enter the world of men to stop Ares (David Thewlis), the god of war, from destroying humanity. Jenkins has also returned to direct&nbsp;, the long-awaited sequel that will finally debut in the US and .SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAYAt the time of its release,&nbsp;Wonder Woman&nbsp;became the best reviewed movie in the entire DCEU; in fact, there are many today who still count it among the best in the franchise. The film was largely praised for its depiction of Diana, her compelling dynamic with Steve Trevor (Chris Pine), and the chill-inducing No Man's Land sequence. However, if there was one part of&nbsp;Wonder Woman that critics and fans disliked, it was the . Many criticized how the sequence devolves into a CGI overload.Jenkins recently sat down with&nbsp; to discuss&nbsp;Wonder Woman 1984 and how it differs from the first film, which led to a brief discussion of the Ares ending. Jenkins admitted the original plan wasn't always for Diana and Ares to have a full-on brawl; in fact, things were much smaller. However, Warner Bros. pushed for a bigger finish, and Jenkins acquiesced. Jenkins recalled:"The original end of the first movie was also smaller, but the studio made me change it at the last minute. So that's always been a little bit of a bummer that that's the one thing people talk about, because I agreed. And I told the studio we didn't have time to do it, but it was what it was. I ended up loving it, but that was not the original ending of the movie."In recent months, Warner Bros. has gained something of a reputation for interfering with their big budget projects, with and&nbsp;The&nbsp;Hobbit. Jenkins' experience on&nbsp;Wonder Woman isn't quite as drastic as other examples of studios exerting influence over the creative content of a project, but it does show that studios don't always have the best ideas. It's unclear as to what Jenkins' original&nbsp;Wonder Woman ending was, but seeing as the biggest criticism the Ares fight got was that it was too big, anything smaller might have been received better.As have largely praised the villains at the center of the new film, it sounds like Jenkins was able to learn from past mistakes. Though the sequel has two main bad guys as opposed to one, Max Lord (Pedro Pascal) and Barbara Minerva/Cheetah (Kristen Wiig) feel like strong antagonists. Luckily, fans will get to make up their own opinions about&nbsp;the&nbsp;Wonder Woman sequel when it finally arrives in just a few days.Source:
