Chris Pine Cast As Steve Trevor In Upcoming Wonder Woman Movie

Another big name actor has just thrown his name into the ever popular and growing comic book movie franchise, and that is Chris Pine, who according to The Wrap has just signed a multi-picture deal with Warner Brothers to start opposite Gal Gadot in the upcoming Wonder Woman movie as the comic book love interest Steve Trevor.

Much of the plot details have yet to be revealed, but it is being rumored that Chris Pine will see a lot of action as Steve Trevor, possibly as the way he has been written in DC’s New 52, as opposed to always being saved by Wonder Woman in the older comic books. This may have been the selling point for Pine who was also reported to be up for the role of Hal Jordan which would have undoubtedly seen Pine inking a major multi-picture deal as the Emerald Warrior, not only in the upcoming Green Lantern Corps films, but also in possible future Justice League movies.

Wonder Woman is scheduled for theatrical release in 2017.
