Patty Jenkins confirmed for Wonder Woman 2!

Last Updated on August 5, 2021

It's official, Patty Jenkins will indeed be directing WONDER WOMAN 2! She confirmed it while speaking in a Q&A at a Women in Film screening of WONDER WOMAN. Here's what she had to say:

I had an epiphany about Wonder Woman 2…I was like, you don't have to do this. It doesn't have to be a foregone conclusion that you do Wonder Woman 2. But then as I was falling asleep I had an epiphany. I was like, Wait a minute. You have the greatest character of all time that you love dearly, with a cast that you love sitting at the palm of your hand at this day and age — you can do whatever you want with them — are you crazy? And then I suddenly realized, it's not more, it's another movie. It's its own movie. And it's got to be great.

It's a continuation of the same character, but there's a great, entirely different story to be told…With this character in our world, that's fun, because now she exists, just funny, and also says something profound about the world we're in right now.

This is great news! Not only was Patty Jenkins a vital part of what made Wonder Woman great (fighting for the No Man's Land sequence, as well as advocating for sincerity and not being afraid of being cheesy), but it seems that with her comments of Wonder Woman "in our world" or that she "says something profound about the world we are in right now" also seems to insinuate that it might be set in modern times. Which could be fun! I can't wait!

Meanwhile, you can next see Wonder Woman in the upcoming JUSTICE LEAGUE, coming out November 17th.
