Wonder Woman 2 Confirmed by Zack Snyder
Quote:
Zack Snyder has revealed that Warner Bros. is already planning a*Wonder Woman sequel. The filmmaker apparently made the revelation while promoting Wonder Woman on the red carpet at a Shanghai press event. Arthur Wong, who was in attendance for the presentation, says that*Deborah Snyder, co-founder of Cruel and Unusual Films and producer of the DCEU movies, clarified that the next DC female-led superhero movie would be Joss Whedon’s Batgirl. So while Wonder Woman 2 is in development, it’ll be a little while – Batgirl will come out first and that was just announced.

While Wong was clearly present at the event (his Twitter feed is filled with updates and photos from the presentation), we have been unable to confirm this news*with Snyder’s representatives. As of publication, our email has not been returned.

Director Patty Jenkins’ film won’t hit theaters until June 2, 2017, and the early box office tracking is projecting anywhere from a $65 to $105 million opening weekend. How well the film does (or doesn’t) do will naturally determine if a Wonder Woman sequel will go into production. Regardless, Gal Gadot will be reprising her role as the Amazonian warrior in the Justice League team-up movie, which is set to hit theaters on November 17, 2017. A sequel to that film was originally announced for June 14, 2019, but it is*now undated.

At WonderCon, DC head Geoff Johns was unable to confirm a Wonder Woman 2 as part of the company’s slate of superhero movies. I’m sure if Wonder Woman does well, Warner Bros. could make a sequel announcement as early as*San Diego Comic-Con this July. It’s unclear if Patty Jenkins would return for a second film, but it seems likely. I recently spoke*to Johns at a DC films-related reception and he teased that he*and Jenkins*had finally figured out how to bring Wonder Woman’s invisible jet to the big screen, which seems to suggest she’s involved in sequel talks.

It’s definitely going to happen, sure,” said Johnson. “We’ve had great conversations with Geoff Johns and everyone over at DC. It’s an exciting time right now for everyone at DC because they are in a process now where they are building out [their DC universe] really nicely. We have a really cool surprise for Black Adam that I can’t reveal, in terms of where we will see Black Adam being introduced.”
Johnson has been attached to the character of Black Adam as far back as 2008.
The antihero, an arch-nemesis of the character Shazam, was originally supposed to be the villain in a Shazam solo movie. But now that Johnson’s star power has greatly increased in the years since his signing on, the decision was made to give Black Adam his own film.
Based on Johnson’s comments, we may see him show up sooner than later — perhaps even as soon as the upcoming “Justice League” movie, due out this November.
