After a ton of speculation, and several moved release-dates, the sequel to 2014’s Wonder Woman will not cost HBO Max subscribers anything additional to stream. Basically, this isn’t a Mulan deal. If you have HBO Max, you will get to watch Wonder Woman 1984 on Christmas Day at no extra cost. After Wonder Woman 1984, more releases are on the way. In January 2021, HBO Max is also debuting the long-awaited “Snyder Cut” of the 2017 film Justice League. Chronologically, Justice League occurs after Wonder Woman 1984, because yes, the new Wonder Woman movie is a period piece set in the year 1984. (Recall: Diana Prince, AKA Wonder Woman is quasi-immortal.) The new film’s retro-vibe echo the Lynda Carter Wonder Woman TV series from the ’80s. Though, it’s unlikely that the lyric “her satin tights, fightin’ our rights” will be retained. But hey, you never know? You can check out HBO Max here.
