By TV’s original “Wonder Woman” star Lynda Carter popped up at the end of Patty Jenkins’ “Wonder Woman 1984” in a cameo as Asteria, a legendary Amazonian warrior previously thought dead.
That tease led to a suggestion of a third “Wonder Woman” movie that would see Carter and Gal Gadot unite on the big screen.
Of course, that didn’t happen and the third film was effectively dead as of last year. In a new interview with Yahoo Entertainment though, Carter indicates she saw the plans for the film and was likely to return.
Talking about Jenkins’ plans for the next film, she wouldn’t go into detail but said it was “really interesting, wonderful and about something important. Not just your typical thing.”
She goes on to say that there’s no chance of a third film happening without obvious public support from fans:
“I don’t think they want to do it unless there’s enough pressure from fans. I just don’t think they have the mind to do it. And I don’t understand that, because it seems to me that Wonder Woman is different from other characters. She’s not just a superhero. Her whole thing is about peaceful solutions. She’s not aggressive to be aggressive. It’s a different story. It’s about inner strength, outer strength. I don’t know why they tabled it, because it’s a great franchise.”
The comments follow those from Jenkins last month who said her experience with the Wonder Woman character is over “for the time being, easily forever”.
James Gunn and Peter Safran’s new DC universe will launch with superheroes but no Wonder Woman plans have yet been announced.
