James Gunn Addresses ‘Wonder Woman 3’ Cancelation Rumors Without Confirming Anything
Filmmaker James Gunn addressed the report that “Wonder Woman 3” got axed from the upcoming schedule, but he didn’t confirm or deny if the rumors were accurate.
“So. As for the story yesterday in the Hollywood Reporter, some of it is true, some of it is half-true, some of it is not true, & some of it we haven’t decided yet whether it’s true or not,” Gunn tweeted Thursday. “Although this first month at DC has been fruitful, building the next ten years of story takes time & we’re still just beginning.”
He described how he and producer Peter Safran were picked to revamp DC Studios to make changes and acknowledged that there was “an unavoidable transitional period as we moved into telling a cohesive story across film, TV, animation and gaming.”
“But, in the end, the drawbacks of that transitional period were dwarfed by the creative possibilities and the opportunity to build upon what has worked in DC so far and to help rectify what has not,” he wrote in the tweet thread.
Gunn was replying to a story published by The Hollywood Reporter earlier this week alleging that the third “Wonder Woman” movie wasn’t happening anymore.
Gunn and Safran will present their current plans for the DC Universe across film, television and gaming next week to Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav. For now, insiders are guessing about what those plans entail.
Upcoming films in the DC Universe for 2023 include “Shazam! Fury of the Gods,” “The Flash,” “Blue Beetle” and “Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom,” the publication noted. The next era of DC hopes to compete with the massive success of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Fans are confused because “Wonder Woman” lead actress Gal Gadot posted Monday to Instagram that she’s “so grateful for the opportunity to play such an incredible, iconic character” and that she “can’t wait to share her next chapter with you.”
Safran and Gunn’s vision for the future of DC will officially end the cinematic universe which was brought to life by Zack Snyder. The so-called “Snydervese” has mixed reviews thanks to its “morally gray and visually gritty approach,” as Variety described it, which wasn’t ideal for some fans. Snyder effectively ended his tenure with the franchise following 2017’s “Justice League,” briefly returning in 2021 for “Zack Snyder’s Justice League” before leaving for good.
DC fans should have more answers next week on the future and whether Gal Gadot and “Wonder Woman” will be part of it.
