Small Details In Wonder Woman 1984 Only True Fans Noticed

Wonder Woman 1984 is a thrilling movie and it's also jam-packed with subtle details. From radical color schemes to feral fashion to callbacks to comic books and ancient myth, here are some of the small details you may have missed.

Warning! If you still haven't seen Wonder Woman 1984, spoilers are on their way!

Rainbows first pop up in a Themyscira flashback, in which young Diana and her older competitors are required to hit targets releasing colored smoke, to signal how far they've progressed. More rainbows pour in as we switch to 1984 and are dazzled by multicolored flashes from Maxwell Lord's television ads. Sharp-eyed viewers will also notice that the jogger threatened by reckless drivers is wearing a rainbow top.

The rainbows continue to appear throughout the film's runtime: Note that Max's son Alistair is wearing a rainbow-striped shirt when he's reunited with his father toward the end of the film. Perhaps most obviously, there is the fireworks display Steve and Diana fly through, which creates a kaleidoscope of rainbows. Even the dangerous Dreamstone continues the theme. Barbara notes it's made of citrine, which can contain rainbow-like sparkles.

You could just take this imagery as a nod to the neon-bright styles of the '80s, but it's likely there's a deeper meaning intended. While Wonder Woman 1984's release date was changed because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the film was originally meant to be released in June 2020, which would have seen it debut during LGBTQ Pride Month. Director Patty Jenkins made a point of not only revealing the release date on Twitter, but of unveiling a rainbow-themed promotional poster along with it.
