Chris Pine Confirms His 'Wonder Woman' Role: 'I'm Super Excited'

Chris Pine has finally confirmed that he will be starring in Wonder Woman opposite Gal Gadot!

The 35-year-old actor has been rumored to be starring in the film, but DC Comics never officially confirmed the news.

“I’m not allowed to tell you much. I’m super excited, of course. Gal Godot is super talented and [director] Patty Jenkins is going to deliver. What excites me the most is to get to be in a film with a female super hero. With a woman in the lead role. I’m teamed with an intelligent, beautiful strong woman to destroy evil and save humanity. You know, the routine,” Chris told French publication Premiere (translated by USA Today).

Wonder Woman will hit theaters on June 23, 2017.
