AceShowbiz - The writer of Supergirl has shared new information on the progress of upcoming Wonder Woman and Teen Titans projects, with both currently in the initial phases of development, Comicbookmovie reports. These updates shed light on the creative direction and production status of two highly anticipated entries in the DC Universe.

Theplaylist adds that DC Studios is actively working on a fresh Wonder Woman movie, with Ana Nogueira, who penned Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, tapped to write the screenplay. This new film is part of a broader DC Universe reboot led by James Gunn and Peter Safran, who opted to cancel the previously planned third installment directed by Patty Jenkins and starring Gal Gadot. Casting and directorial decisions have yet to be made. Theplaylist also notes Gunn's expressed interest in possible candidates for the role of Wonder Woman, including Adria Arjona, May Calamawy, Monica Barbaro, and Ana de Armas. Meanwhile, Gamesradar points out that Gunn asked Nogueira to prioritize completing the Wonder Woman script before moving on to the Teen Titans screenplay, which is still without a script. Neither the new Wonder Woman film nor the Teen Titans project was included in the initial DCU Chapter One slate.

Wonder Woman was first introduced to audiences in the 2017 Warner Bros. Pictures production, an action-adventure sci-fi film directed by Patty Jenkins and starring Gal Gadot alongside Chris Pine, Robin Wright Penn, and others. The franchise enjoyed significant box office success and cultural impact, with its first movie earning over $800 million worldwide. However, the sequel, released during the pandemic, faced challenges both commercially and critically. The current DC Universe reboot aims to refresh the franchise with new creative talent and storylines while maintaining the character’s iconic status.

This development signals a major shift in the direction of DC's superhero lineup, emphasizing careful script development and fresh casting to reboot beloved characters. With DC Studios focusing on strong, self-contained stories, the new Wonder Woman film and Teen Titans project are positioned to redefine these franchises for a new era, highlighting the studio’s cautious approach to rebuilding the DC Universe from the ground up.
