Despite star Gal Gadot's statements earlier this week, Wonder Woman 3 is allegedly not in the works. According to Variety, new DC Studios co-heads James Gunn and Peter Safran have no intentions for a Wonder Woman project, other from the Paradise Lost prequel series planned for Max (formerly HBO Max) as part of its overhauled DC Universe slate. When Gadot said in a pre-SAG-AFTRA strike interview that the aforementioned parties had confidentially confirmed the film's production to her, word spread like wildfire.
That phrase was subsequently underlined in a Flaunt magazine feature promoting her recently released Netflix film Heart of Stone. "I was invited to a meeting with James Gunn and Peter Safran, and they told me, quote, 'You're in the best hands.'" We'll be working with you to create Wonder Woman 3. [We] adore you as Wonder Woman - you have nothing to be concerned about.' So only time will tell," she explained. According to Variety, Gadot was not guaranteed anything of the type, and there was no final discussion of whether she will reprise her role in the new DC Universe. Gadot originally featured in Zack Snyder's Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice as the Amazonian princess, before branching out into two independent Wonder Woman flicks. She also appeared in The Flash, although that film served as a reboot for the world. They were also created before Gunn and Safran joined the studio.
Patty Jenkins directed both Wonder Woman and Wonder Woman 1984, and in December she submitted a screenplay for a third unnamed film co-written with Geoff Johns (Suicide Squad). The character's concept/treatment, however, did not mesh with the vision Gunn and Safran had intended for the makeover, and therefore was scrapped. That news also came after Gadot made favourable statements about her return with a third film on her Twitter account. While Warner Bros. wasn't concerned about production expenses at the moment, they might wind up saving 'tens of millions of dollars' by cancelling Wonder Woman 3.
Even Gunn's January DC Comics presentation did not mention another Wonder Woman picture, instead unveiling a Paradise Lost series that would serve as an origins narrative for the enigmatic world inhabited and ruled by Amazonian women. The show will focus on the drama and political intrigue surrounding the society in order to investigate its laws and the history surrounding the expulsion of all males from the island country of Themyscira. "It's almost like Game of Thrones with Westeros, but with all the inhabitants of Paradise Island," Gunn said at the time.
