The newWonder Womanmovie has just received its most exciting update yet. AfterGal Gadot’sWonder Woman 3was canceled, theDCfranchise stayed in limbo for quite some time. The Wonder Woman prequel seriesParadise Lostwas announced for the DCU’s Chapter One, but a solo movie for Diana Prince was notably missing from the slate reveal.
Recently, James Gunn shed light on the heroine’s situation, revealing thata Wonder Woman movie is in development at DC. The plan is for the film to enter production as soon as the script is finished, if Gunn and DC Studios co-CEO Peter Safran are happy with what they read. Now, the new Wonder Woman movie has received a major update.
According toVariety,DC is fast-tracking the DCU Wonder Woman movie. There is still no word on aSupermansequel, but the report claims Warner Bros. Discovery is happy with Matt Reeves’The Batman - Part IIscript. This means that the DCU’s Wonder Woman should make her live-action debut before the franchise’s Batman, who has to debut after Reeves' film.
What The New Wonder Woman Movie Update Means
Diana Prince’s Live-Action Return Is Closer Than Ever
With 2026 featuring a movie for a Batman villain, Clayface, and 2027 seeing the release of Matt Reeves' anticipatedThe Batman - Part II, the earliest that the DCU’sThe Brave and the Boldmovie could be released is 2028. As such, it seems like the studio is moving fast on theother major DC character who has yet to debut.\
Following the successful opening of James Gunn’s Superman movie, DC has turned its attention to fast-tracking Wonder Woman. Interestingly, while Gunn has said that he is working on aSupermansequel of sorts, the new report claims that a sequel announcement is not imminent. With that in mind, the idea of fast-tracking the Wonder Woman movie makes even more sense.

TBD
DC is likely looking to get as many of its biggest characters onscreen as soon as possible. That is why the Wonder Woman movie being given priority over aSupermansequel works. Based on how the script for the project is being written, there is a chance that DC’s new Wonder Woman could be cast in late 2025 or early 2026.
Our Take On The New Wonder Woman Movie Update
DC’s Wonder Woman Movie Could Be Released Soon
The Wonder Woman movie news is exciting. With Batman having to wait until Matt Reeves' next film, I believe thatfast-tracking Wonder Woman is the best course of action for DC. It would provide another strong franchise for the DCU to build on and could even lead to theParadise Lostspinoff finally happening.Wonder Woman’s debut is coming soon.
