Why Wonder Woman 2 is set in the 1980s.

As evident from the first Wonder Woman, Jenkins makes the setting a character in its own right. One scene in particular, which featured Diana running through bombs and gun fire in No Man's Land, heightened the horrific atmosphere of the First World War, turning warfare itself into another villain that played a key role in the film's narrative. It's likely that Jenkins will make a similar decision and portray the excessive and extreme atmosphere of the 1980s as a central character as well.
