The second Wonder Woman movie starts with Wonder Woman (Diana) saving people and earning their respect. However, she is sad because her beloved, Steve Trevor, died 40 years ago. Diana meets a geologist named Barbara, who is an outcast, and befriends her. They discover a magical stone that grants wishes, but at a cost: the person loses their most valuable possession.
Maxwell, a scammer, steals the stone and uses its power to become rich and influential. However, he loses his health and humanity in the process. Diana and Steve (who has returned through the stone's power) try to stop Maxwell, but he becomes too powerful.
Diana realizes that the only way to defeat Maxwell is to renounce her wish and give up Steve. She does so and regains her powers. With the help of her lasso of truth, she communicates with humans and makes them see the destruction caused by their selfish desires.
Maxwell, realizing his son is in danger, renounces his wish, and the world returns to normal. The movie ends with Diana happy to see the world at peace, and she meets the real owner of the body Steve is in, but he doesn't reciprocate her feelings.
