During the official watch party of Wonder Woman 1984 , Patty Jenkins revealed that Chris Pine improvised Steve Trevor's reaction to break dancing during one of the scenes from the DCEU film.
The hilarious moment happened when Steve thought that the aforementioned form of dancing was a threat to him and Diana while strolling around Washington, D.C.
The scene occurs about an hour into the film:
WHAT THIS MEANS
Wonder Woman 1984 is full of cheesy references and funny moments, and Steve Trevor's fascination with the 80s definitely tops that list. The character's reaction to the unfamiliar setting delivered a good amount of laughs to many viewers, and the reveal that Pine improvised one of those is a fitting cherry on top.
Trevor's resurrection was one of the well-kept secrets of Wonder Woman 1984 , and the execution of how it was portrayed was unpredictable. To recap, the Dreamstone was the main reason behind the character's surprise inclusion in the sequel, and it was made possible through Diana's wish. As a result, Trevor returned by possessing the body of another man.
The nature of the return inspired discussion amongst fans, but many agreed that the character's response to just about anything in the 80s was entertaining to watch. Interestingly, this is in direct contrast to his role during 2017's Wonder Woman. In that film, Pine was actually the one who served as the tour guide of sorts for Diana in the war-torn setting of World War I.
As it is, the fact that Pine improvised one of the fan-favorite moments from the film goes to show that the actor enjoyed playing the “man out of time” this time around.
