Patty Jenkins’ Wonder Woman 3 has reportedly been cancelled by DC and Warner Bros. as new leadership takes over the studio.

According to reports, James Gunn and Peter Safran of DC Studios and Warner Bros. Pictures co-chairs and co-CEOs Michael De Luca and Pamela Abdy told Jenkins that her Gal Gadot-starring sequel is “considered dead,” as it does not match up with the studios’ new and upcoming plans.

THR adds that although the cost to make the film was not a reason behind the cancellation, the studio may be saving “tens of millions of dollars” as the actress was set to receive $20 million USD for her role as the titular superhero and Jenkins would have received $12 million USD.

The news arrives around the same time Gadot herself took to Twitter to thank fans for their support of her role and the movie, tweeting that she “Can’t wait to share her next chapter with you.” It remains unclear if she was unaware of the news.

1. DC has fucked itself...HARD!

Not just with this announcement, but across the DC universe, the shows are all getting cancelled. It is a real fucking shame. They need to study Marvel and LEARN how to do it!

2. I personally love the "Snyderverse" as it has been called.

Unfortunately, DC and Warner have chosen to destroy Zach Snyder's vision for these characters.

I rewatched "Man of Steel" the other night. I am convinced it is one of the greatest things to ever be on screen.

The first Wonder Woman movie was sheer excellence. The second was a good followup, but for some reason, didn't really grab me.
