Only ONE scene in “Wonder Woman” was reshot

The recently releasedWonder Woman issmashing box office records, but was it always this perfect film we all love? Tons of movies go through reshoots for a variety of reasons. Maybe some scenes aren’t working in editing or they need to shift scenes around. But apparently in the nearly perfect Wonder Woman, only one scene needed to be reshot and added to what we ended up seeing on screen.

And what was this one scene? When Diana (Gal Gadot) and Steve Trevor (Chris Pine) are headed to the frontlines of World War I in the film, it’s supposed to be a tense moment building up to the battle. But when director Patty Jenkins watched the scene after shooting was complete, she thought it needed something additional to ramp up the tension.

Here’s what she told The Hollywood Reporter about the reshoot:

“That scene was just a slightly tense scene of them walking. I was like ‘I need her to see some brutality.’ So, we added her seeing the horses being whipped. It was actually something that had been in the script originally. 

They basically just added back in a scene from the original script — meaning that there weren’t any major changes to the original intention of the film. And it was still epic! Jenkins confirmed:

“We replaced that one scene with a reshot scene, and we didn’t change the order of a single scene. So what you saw is exactly the movie that we were always making.

And what we saw was pretty amazing. Make sure to go see Wonder Woman again this week. You know it’s what Diana would want.
