Gal Gadot Drops Mind-Blowing Teaser on Wonder Woman 3's Exciting Fate

Gal Gadot hints at the possibility of reprising her role as Wonder Woman, fueling speculation about her involvement in James Gunn's DC Universe

Gal Gadot has shared a positive update regarding her future as Wonder Woman in the DC Universe. Having portrayed the iconic character in two standalone films, various iterations of Justice League, and multiple guest appearances, Gadot's impressive list of credits as Wonder Woman in the DCEU includes Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Wonder Woman, Justice League, Wonder Woman 1984, Zack Snyder's Justice League, Shazam! Fury of the Gods, and The Flash. Initially, Gadot was set to lead a trilogy as the beloved superhero, but the introduction of James Gunn's new DC Universe and the cancellation of Wonder Woman 3 seemed to dash those hopes. However, the talented actress has recently sparked optimism by hinting at a potential return as Wonder Woman in the future, stating, "Things are being worked behind the scenes, and once the right moment arrives, you'll know about it." This shift in perspective is a welcome change, as Gadot's previous comments had suggested that she was content with not reprising her role as the iconic character.

The rumors of Gadot leaving the DC Universe began circulating in late 2022, following the news that Henry Cavill would not be reprising his role as Superman in the new DC Universe. This decision, which involved introducing a younger version of the character, raised concerns among fans and led to speculation about the future of other DCEU stars. Furthermore, the departure of Patty Jenkins from Wonder Woman 3 and the cancellation of the film seemed to suggest that Gadot's time as Wonder Woman had come to an end.

However, Gadot's portrayal of Wonder Woman has been widely praised as one of the highlights of the previous DCEU. Her renewed optimism about the possibility of continuing to play the character is not only exciting news but also aligns with her strong connection to the role. It is important to note that Gunn's DC Universe will not be a complete reboot, as several actors from the DCEU have already been confirmed to reprise their respective roles. This includes Viola Davis as Amanda Waller, who will have her own Waller Max series, and John Cena as Peacemaker, with Gunn confirming his involvement in Peacemaker season 2 following his work on Superman: Legacy.

Gadot's portrayal of Diana Prince in guest roles in various DC films has sparked renewed interest in her rendition of the superhero, despite the poor reception of Wonder Woman 1984. Although Gunn's announcement regarding the initial DC Universe projects excluding Wonder Woman might suggest otherwise, it does not necessarily mean that Gadot is no longer involved. In fact, the Paradise Lost series has the potential to lay the foundation for Wonder Woman's future. One of the main criticisms of Gadot's Wonder Woman franchise was its failure to fully explore the character's mythology. However, the upcoming Max prequel series could address this issue and further expand the Wonder Woman universe, potentially paving the way for Gadot's potential return as the iconic superhero.
