While I don't know what Jenkins' plans are for WW84, I do know that she is not totally averse to the idea of Diana killing:

I think I have stronger feelings about that than most. It wasnt a huge hot topic of debate. I think that I probably care about her being less violent and easy to violence than anybody else because one of my favorite things about Wonder Woman is that she takes no relish in fighting and shes not going out of her way to kill but I, myself, completely relate with the character who when push comes to shove and somebodys got to step up and do it, then somebodys got to step up and do it.
I love that duality of Wonder Woman that she both wants peace and means peace but when push comes to shove and someone needs to be put down like a dog, thats what she would be willing to do. Yeah, we didnt end up having to talk about it because I was already trying to keep it that way. Interestingly really, theres the problem of how do you deal with the Germans and war and youre fighting them. I actually spent a lot of time looking at interestingly Indiana Jones because that was like theyre plowing through World War II but youre not viscerally delighting in killing. That was the cue that I took, shes trying to take people out and certainly some of those people are being killed because thats what it would take. Youre not getting into the act of killing as something you delight in.
