While we do have a pretty good idea about which characters Gal Gadot's Diana Prince will find as her allies in next year's Wonder Woman, we don't know much about the villains she’ll be up against. After watching the movie's first official trailer, many assumed that Elena Anaya, who appears in a party sequence wearing some strange facial prosthetic, must be playing a baddie.
Well, there's no doubt about it anymore! The actress herself has confirmed in a recent interview with the Spanish outlet SensaCine (via Batman News) that her character in Wonder Woman isn't a good one. While she doesn't reveal the character's name, she suggests that it won't be a very big role.
However, Anaya's role would be big enough to have some impact on the story and impose some serious threat on the titular superhero and her love-interest, Chris Pine's Steve Trevor. According to the 41-year-old actress:
Well, it was a small role in this big ensemble, but it is an important character in the story. It's directed by Patty Jenkins, then there's Gal Gadot as our main lead, Chris Pine as her co-lead and I'm going to be"¦a big nightmare for the two of them.
In the party sequence of the Wonder Woman trailer, Danny Huston's character also seems to be a villainous one. According to rumors, Huston's character is Ares while Elena Anaya is playing Silver Swan in the June 2, 2017 release. Considering the fact that her character isn't the main villain, those rumors could be true.
However, many have also speculated about the Spanish actress portraying other iconic Wonder Woman villains, including Circe and Doctor Poison. Maybe we will come to know more about the character after the movie's second trailer has launched. But that is unlikely to arrive anytime soon.
