Patty Jenkins Confirms Wonder Woman 3 Has Been Canceled “Probably Easily Forever”

Patty Jenkins gave an update on the film projects she’s attached to, including Wonder Woman 3 and Star Wars: Rogue Squadron.

While appearing on Max’s Talking Pictures podcast, Ben Mankiewicz, the filmmaker said that another sequel to the Wonder Woman franchise would likely never happen.

“Yes, for now, but probably easily forever,” she said in response to a question about putting a third Wonder Woman installment on hold.

Jenkins was in the process of creating a third film in the series with Gal Gadot.

However, with James Gunn and Peter Safran taking over DC Studios, they had a new direction in mind for the DCEU, leading to the temporary cancellation of Wonder Woman 3.

Although Jenkins is not involved in the development of another film for the DCEU, she is currently engaged in creating a film set in the Star Wars universe.

“So when I left Star Wars to do Wonder Woman 3 and started working on that, we said, ‘Well, maybe I’ll come back to Star Wars after Wonder Woman 3, so we made a deal to make that happen.

Jenkins added: “When Wonder Woman 3 left, Lucasfilm and I were like, ‘Oh, we have to finish this deal.’ We closed the deal just as the strike was starting, so now I owe a draft of Star Wars so we’ll see what happens there.

Jenkins noted that Lucasfilm has “a tough job ahead of them regarding the first movie they’re going to make.”

“They have other directors who have worked, but now I’m back on Rogue Squadron,” Jenkins continued. “We’ll see what happens. We need to get to where we’re both very happy with it.

“If I can make something beautiful and do something that serves this audience, I would love to do it,” she added.
