10 Comic Book Movie Deaths That Should Never Have Happened
9. Steve Trevor - Wonder Woman
DC has had five cracks at producing a movie to rival Marvel and, with Man of Steel, Batman vs Superman, Suicide Squad and Justice League all heavily flawed, that makes Wonder Woman the best of the lot so far. In it, Gal Gabot gives a brilliant performance but Chris Pine is equally good as Steve Trevor, who leaves a lasting impression on the audience.
Unfortunately, Pine’s character meets a grim fate. And, given the drab individuals who have survived some of DC’s worse works - particularly Suicide Squad - it is nothing short of an injustice that Trevor did not get more screen time to make an impression and serve a greater purpose other than being Wonder Woman’s saddest memory from years of fighting on the frontline.
So Trevor fully did not deserve to go. He served a purpose in the fact that Wonder Woman would not be the hardened, bad-ass soldier she is now without his death but moviegoers deserved more. He had helped make the film the best of the series so far with his surprising emotional depth a rarity in DC's dark and gloomy universe.
