Warner Bros has officially greenlit a third Wonder Woman movie. The film will bring back Patty Jenkins as the director and Gal Gadot as the DC superhero. While Jenkins had maintained that she had already mapped out Wonder Woman 3, she began to have doubts due to the pandemic and the resulting disruption in theatrical business. This is the first official confirmation.

Warner Bros. chief Toby Emmerich said in a statement, “As fans around the world continue to embrace Diana Prince, driving the strong opening weekend performance of ‘Wonder Woman 1984,’ we are excited to be able to continue her story with our real life Wonder Women — Gal and Patty — who will return to conclude the long-planned theatrical trilogy.”
