Gal Gadot<\/a><\/strong> got people talking recently when she claimed she might still appear in a third Wonder Woman<\/strong><\/em> film<\/a> under the auspices of new DC Studios bosses \u2014 and architects of the rebooted DC Universe in film and TV \u2014 James Gunn<\/strong> and Peter Safran<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\u201cI love portraying Wonder Woman<\/em>,\u201d Gadot told Comicbook.com<\/a> in an interview promoting her Netflix thriller Heart of Stone<\/strong><\/em>. \u201cIt\u2019s so close to and dear to my heart. From what I heard from James and from Peter is that we\u2019re gonna develop a Wonder Woman 3<\/em> together.\u201d<\/p>\n

The actor was even more definitive in an interview with Flaunt<\/a><\/em> magazine. \u201cI was invited to a meeting with James Gunn and Peter Safran,\u201d Gadot said, \u201cand what they told me, and I\u2019m quoting: \u2018You\u2019re in the best hands. We\u2019re going to develop Wonder Woman 3 with you. [We] love you as Wonder Woman \u2014 you\u2019ve got nothing to worry about.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

But now \u201csources with knowledge of the situation\u201d have told Variety<\/a><\/em> that Gadot is mistaken. According to those sources, nothing was promised to the actor, Wonder Woman 3 is not in development, and there are no plans for any Wonder Woman project within the new DC Universe beyond the Max prequel series Paradise Lost, which will be set on the island of Themyscira, home to Wonder Woman\u2019s tribe of Amazonian superwomen, before her time.<\/p>\n

There wasn\u2019t \u201cany definitive discussion of Gadot\u2019s Wonder Woman continuing with the new DC Universe,\u201d Variety\u2019s sources said.<\/p>\n

These denials stop short of completely ruling out Gadot making future appearances as the character. However, Gadot managed to get the wrong end of the stick; it seems as though she was not shown the door as definitively as Henry Cavill, who made it very public that his days as Superman were over after he met with Gunn and Safran and whose role has already been recast.<\/p>\n

Gadot could potentially return as Wonder Woman under the DC Elseworlds banner, where non-canon takes on DC characters such as Robert Pattinson\u2019s Batman and Joaquin Phoenix\u2019s Joker will live.<\/p>\n

Gadot\u2019s inclusion in an official DC Universe project isn\u2019t entirely out of the question, either. Gunn and Safran aren\u2019t shutting the door on all DC projects that predate their reboot of the universe: Gunn has already said that Xolo Maridue\u00f1a<\/strong>, star of this month\u2019s Blue Beetle <\/em>movie, will continue to play the part in the new DC Universe.<\/p>\n

But Gadot\u2019s Wonder Woman, as a key figure in DC movies from the Zack Snyder era, might present more issues for the new regime, even in a cameo role \u2014 and Variety\u2019s sources do seem to want to draw a line between her and the new DC Universe.<\/p>\n

Either way, it seems unlikely Gadot will return to the role soon \u2014 and a third Wonder Woman movie is now definitely off the table. Wonder Woman 3 had been in development with Patty Jenkins<\/strong>, director of the first two films, but reports of its cancellation emerged in December 2022, as Gunn and Safran were preparing to unveil their vision for the future of the DCU.<\/p>\n

At the time, Jenkins confirmed that she had not walked away from the project, but that she had been told there was no way it was moving forward.<\/p>\n
