Overview
- Gadot told Josh Horowitz on Monday that she is unlikely to reprise Wonder Woman, citing family responsibilities and the long time commitment required for another major franchise film.
- She said DC Studios had told her they would develop a third Wonder Woman with her but that those plans did not move forward after James Gunn and Peter Safran took charge.
- Gadot criticized how the studio handled other exits, saying Henry Cavill’s Superman situation and Patty Jenkins’ departure “were not handled elegantly,” language that echoes reporting about Cavill’s brief announced return and subsequent recast with David Corenswet.
- DC is developing a new Wonder Woman project with Supergirl writer Ana Nogueira working on the script, and casting rumors — notably that Adria Arjona may appear as Diana — remain unconfirmed and should be treated as speculation.
- The episode highlights talent-management tensions from the DCEU-to-DCU transition, and it raises the stakes for how DC signals respect for legacy actors and times its public casting and creative decisions going forward.
