Gal Gadot has confirmed that she is working on Wonder Woman 3 alongside DC Studios’ James Gunn and Peter Safran, and fans are overjoyed.
The Heart of Stone actor previously appeared in Wonder Woman in 2017 and Wonder Woman 1984 in 2020, and she now claims to be working on a sequel.
‘I enjoy portraying Wonder Woman,’ the 38-year-old actress remarked in an interview with Comicbook before the strike. ‘It’s so close to and dear to my heart. From what I heard from James and from Peter is that we’re gonna develop a Wonder Woman 3 together.’
The actress made her debut as the Amazonian warrior in 2016’s Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and was supposed to reprise the role in Wonder Woman 3 but film was scrapped late last year due to a leadership change at DC Studios.
All of that appears to have changed suddenly, though no formal confirmation of Gal’s assertion has been provided.
It’s unknown if Patty Jenkins, who directed the first two films, will be involved in the third.
Addressing the new editions to the DC family, Gadot added: ‘I’m happy for them. It’s such a huge take-on and it’s such an exciting beginning to any actor, and I wish whoever it’s going to be the best of luck and enjoy the ride.’
The planned DC Universe movie slate also currently features The Authority, The Brave and the Bold, Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, and Swamp Thing.
Many DC fans are stunned by the revelation, while Gal’s supporters are ecstatic to see her reprise the famous role.
‘Gal Gadot will be in Wonder Woman 3 playing Wonder Woman,’ said one, with a with teary face emoji to express their excitement.
‘I’m so excited love Gal,’ wrote another, while someone else said: ‘I thought she was out as WW. Not that I’m complaining, she’s perfect in the role.’
‘She deserves one more at least,’ chimed in another fan, with someone else said: ‘If it’s true then I will be very exciting to see her again.’
A true Gal fan added: ‘I’m not the biggest fan of the character as a whole, but I LOVED the first Gal Gadot Wonder Woman movie, and she consistently stayed one of my favorite aspects of the DCEU, so I’m beyond happy that she is returning. Cant wait to see part 3.’
