James Gunn Comments on the New Wonder Woman Movie
As James Gunn lays the groundwork for the new DC Universe, the return of Wonder Woman is eagerly anticipated. However, according to the director’s latest statement, the script for the character’s new incarnation isn’t even complete yet. Gunn, who previously denied casting rumors, announced that the project is currently in the writing stages.
No Casting Yet for Wonder Woman
Recently, rumors circulated on social media that a television actress was being sought for the role of Wonder Woman. However, James Gunn categorically denied these claims in a statement on Threads. Gunn stated that they prioritized casting over past experience and choosing the most suitable person for the role. Furthermore, he made it clear that no casting search would begin until the script was completed.
Superman has been at the forefront of DC Studios’ restructuring process, and following its box office success, attention has turned to iconic characters like Wonder Woman. While it’s widely known that Warner Bros. is looking to accelerate the development of the Wonder Woman film, James Gunn’s statement suggests these expectations may be delayed. The first step for the new version of Diana will be the completion of the script.
Gal Gadot is not expected to play Wonder Woman in this new universe. The new film is planned to introduce the character into the DCU with a fresh cast. However, both the production process and casting process will require some time to wait. Gunn’s statements, while slowing down fan expectations, also reveal that the character’s return is being meticulously planned.
Meanwhile, Warner Bros. is busy not only with the Wonder Woman film but also with other DC projects such as Teen Titans, The Authority, and The Brave and the Bold. All these developments offer important clues about how the DC Universe will shape up in the coming period. For now, patience will be necessary for Wonder Woman.
