If you’ve been frustrated by DC’s cinematic chaos over the last few years, you’re not alone. In an Entertainment Weekly interview, James Gunn confirmed a brand-new Wonder Woman film is in early development—raising the question of how different this Diana Prince will be from the one we know—and whether it will finally give the DCU the cohesion fans crave.
Gunn hasn’t said if Gal Gadot will reprise her role. His reboot has already recast Superman (David Corenswet) and Batman, so a fresh take on Diana Prince seems likely. This could mean a younger or radically reimagined Wonder Woman, aligning with the new Clark Kent and Supergirl (Milly Alcock) on the roster.
Alongside the film, DC Studios is developing an HBO Max series set on Themyscira. By exploring Amazonian culture, politics, and mythology over multiple episodes, the show could deliver deeper world-building than feature films allow—think internal power struggles, rich character arcs, and a fully realized Amazon society.
Gamers should pay attention: this reboot could directly influence upcoming DC titles. Expect new skins and storylines in fighting games like Injustice, Amazon-themed DLC for the Arkham series, or even standalone Wonder Woman adventures in next-gen open-world titles. Industry insiders note that synchronized film, TV, and game releases are becoming standard, so a cohesive DCU across media may be on the horizon.
Until casting is confirmed and a release date is announced (still TBA), treat this as a strong “potential” rather than a promise. But if Gunn’s work on Guardians of the Galaxy and Peacemaker is any indication, expect a balance of blockbuster spectacle and deeper character work. The new DCU kicks off July 9 with Superman, then rolls into Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, a Clayface horror spin-off, and more—suggesting DC is finally betting big on a unified cinematic and gaming future.
