Previously, part 3 of Wonder Woman was announced to start on December 27, 2020, just two days after Wonder Woman 1984 (part 2) debuted. This is expected to be the final part with the return of Patty Jenkins, as writer and director, and Miss Israel Gal Gadot as the female lead Diana.The cancellation of Wonder Woman 3 will help Gal Gadot explore new horizons.

However, in December 2022, news about Wonder Woman 3 being canceled appeared just one day after Gal Gadot posted an article sharing about this role on social networks. “A few years ago, when it was announced that I would be playing Wonder Woman, I was so grateful to be given the opportunity to play such an iconic character,” she wrote. So excited to share the next part with you.”

The reason for the cancellation is said to be because the sequel no longer fits into DC’s future plans. After taking over DC Studios as co-chairmen, James Gunn and Peter Safran are shaping a new journey for the DC cinematic universe. The clearest sign is that the duo has begun to “clean up” the plans of Warner Bros. studio. about the DC series previously designed by director Zack Snyder.

Meanwhile, the DC Universe is moving forward with ambitious plans. While Wonder Woman 3 may not be on the horizon, there is a whole series of films and projects in development. Among them are Creature Commandos (which still doesn’t have a release date) and Superman: Legacy which is scheduled to hit theaters on July 11, 2025. Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman era may have reached a “crossroads,” but her spirit remains as fierce and restless as the character she portrays.
