Director Patti Jenkins revealed that her father, like Steve Trevor in WW, had been killed in a plane crash.
Jenkins said. "It is literally the story (of my dad). I found it was only a beautiful, wonderful thing to have Wonder Woman and have her guide through this world to be something I did understand and also admired."
Jenkins said that she kept her personal connection to the character a secret for so long, because, "I didn't want people to go on set and be nervous. I'm not nervous," she said. "I'm so honored to bring him back in this way, in this moment."

On a lighter note, Gal Gadot has said she was on the verge of quitting acting when she won the role of WW. She learned she won the role at LAX airport and started screaming uncrontollably
She also imparted that she only was paid $300K ... for a movie that earned $800+ million in theaters.
But now she'll be rich and famous for life. She's rumored to get the Bride of Frankenstein role if Angelina Jolie loses interest.
