New Wonder Woman Film Announced by James Gunn; Gal Gadot Unlikely to Return
  • James Gunn, the head of DC Studios, has confirmed that a new Wonder Woman movie is currently in development.

  • However, Gal Gadot, who played Wonder Woman in the previous films, is unlikely to reprise her role in this upcoming project.

  • Gunn clarified that the new Wonder Woman film will be a separate project from the HBO Max series 'Paradise Lost,' which focuses on Themyscira.

  • While progress on the Themyscira series is slow, Gunn noted that the new Wonder Woman film is actively being written.

  • This new project marks a departure from the previous DC universe established by Zack Snyder and moves away from Patty Jenkins' planned third installment.

  • The sequel, 'Wonder Woman 1984,' released in December 2020, was a disappointment, failing to recoup its budget and dividing critics.

  • After the mixed reception of the sequel, a third film was put on hold, leaving fans without new content for the character until now.

  • In addition to the Wonder Woman film, Gunn is overseeing several other DC projects, including a Superman film set to release on July 11, 2025.

  • Upcoming films also include 'Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow,' scheduled for June 26, 2026, and a horror film titled 'Clayface,' premiering in September 2026.

  • Gunn hinted that the first wave of DCU projects may relate to the Justice League, although details remain limited.

  • He also teased plans for another Superman film, which he described as not necessarily a straightforward sequel.

  • Overall, Gunn is starting fresh with the DC universe, aiming to reintroduce audiences to its iconic characters.
