‘Wonder Woman 3’ in the works with Director Patty Jenkins
 

https://variety.com/2020/film/news/w...ns-1234875194/

Warner Bros. has greenlit a third “Wonder Woman” movie.

“As fans around the world continue to embrace Diana Prince, driving the strong opening weekend performance of Wonder Woman 1984, we are excited to be able continue her story with our real life Wonder Women – Gal and Patty – who will return to conclude the long-planned theatrical trilogy,” said Warner Bros. chief Toby Emmerich.

More to come…

They always fast track sequels, yet here we are still waiting on Aquaman 2, a Cavil Man of Steel follow up, Flashpoint, etc...]

And if it's anything like 84...watch out.

I can’t wait to watch this right after Kelvinverse Trek 4 with Hemsworth returning that was fast tracked after Beyond opened.
It’s obvious this is straight up PR spin.

Since she's working on Star Wars Rogue Squadron set for 2023, which is only 3 years from now, is it possible for a director to handle two big movies at the same time? I honestly don't know, is this common? I imagine a Wonder Woman 3 would be set for 2023 also.

I don't think people understand what a trilogy is anymore. More people from the current generation just saying words.

And the sequel cemented it - the Wonder Woman movies are not a trilogy. There is no overarching connection, and then second one had no links to an overarching struggle or so on. These aren't trilogies. It's just three movies. Full of melodrama.

For anyone that doesn't really understand this - here's an example.

Star Trek The Motion Picture + The Wrath of Khan + The Search For Spock does not = "trilogy"
The Wrath of Khan + The Search for Spock + The Voyage Home = Trilogy

As far as quality? I really liked the first one when it came out, but I've come to realize with hindsight as clarity that I thought the first one was better than it actually is because it surrendered it's social pandering and instead delivered on a likeable female character and relationship. And I was jazzed because of that - that the first Wonder Woman didn't embrace the woke bull $#!( of it's era.

But in hindsight, the first movie isn't that good as a movie. Neither was the second. They aren't bad. But they aren't good and they certainty haven't done any 'trilogy building'.

Heh. One never gets too old for those kinda laughs.:tlol::tlol:

OMG, lol that was supposed to read "as far as quality" so either the Technodrome Gremlins struck or autocorrect did not do my post a favor hahahahaha

Good God. :)

Pretty much every single sequel that has ever been announced while the current movie is barely in theaters... those never happen.

Green Lantern 2 was announced this way, the second Imagi TMNT movie was announced this way, and so on. It's practically the same mentality as when they announce "This is actually the first movie in a TRILOGY!!!" before the box office is even tallied.

As IMJ eloquently explained, calling three singular Wonder Woman movies with no linking arc "a trilogy" just because there are indeed three of them is nonsense. Assuming it happens, it's not a "trilogy", it's JUST a series of three films. There IS a difference.

Although I wouldn't doubt they'll find a way to cram Steve Trevor in yet AGAIN for the third one, just so they can claim that there IS an arc and thus justify calling it "a trilogy". :roll:

There's also already some minor but percolating blowback to this announcement and the timing of it. A good number of people saying they may have even already seen enough of Patty Jenkins's "vision" for the character after this one's misfiring.

Hey, this'll be fun. Just to spite someone else, I'm gonna do something I normally refuse to do and post a link, just because I happen to be on the site and have it handy right now! :trazz: Skip the puff piece and head right to the Comments section for what I mean.

It's just one site but it's consistent with a lot of what I'm seeing elsewhere. And I'll once again reiterate the fact that a good number of these exact commenters really liked the first WW movie, so it's not like they're being "haters". They just didn't like what they saw this time and aren't sure they want to see any more.

Steve Trevor in WW3 in some new "unseen" scene from WW1, I bet. At a key moment.

They really need to give WW a heavy hitter to fight against now. This movie was a joke in that regard. I say Genocide, the character from Gail Simone's run.

Wonder Woman 3 Is Being Fast-Tracked After Impressive Box Office For WW84

Wonder Woman 1984 opened to the highest box office since the pandemic began.

https://www.gamespot.com/articles/wo...9T17%3A06%3A57

While the bar for a successful theatrical release isn't high in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, Wonder Woman 1984 has cleared it, reporting a box office of $16.7 million over its three-day Christmas opening weekend according to a press release. This figure is the best any movie has reported since the pandemic began, beating out Tenet and The Croods: A New Age's COVID-affected openings.

While the numbers would be disappointing in a normal year, Wonder Woman 1984 has done better than expected given the circumstances. It currently boasts a total box office of $85 million, with $68.3 million of that coming from outside the USA. And because of this, Wonder Woman 3 is being fast-tracked.

Wonder Woman 1984 was the first of Warner Bros' movies to release simultaneous in theatres and on HBO Max, as the company will do with all its film releases in 2021. Warner Media revealed that over half of HBO Max's subscribers viewed Wonder Woman 1984 on the day it dropped, though the company hasn't said if the release led to increased numbers of new subscribers to the platform. Not all Americans have had the chance to see Wonder Woman in theaters, with over half of the country's theaters still closed due to the pandemic.

Wonder Woman 1984 has received a mixed bag of positive and negative reviews (GameSpot's was one of the former, with a score of 9/10), resulting in an ambivalent score of 59 on Metacritic. Gal Gadot is attached for the next installment, with Patty Jenkins returning to write and direct. The next film may be a while off, however, with Jenkins already attached to an upcoming Star Wars Rogue Squadron movie with Disney.

Are you interpreting any of this on your own outside of how it's being spun by the Warner press releases? Or is this like the people that watch CNN all day and rage when Anderson Cooper opens his puritan mouth?

There is another guy who does this in the AMC thread and you can tell that he wants to be right so badly that AMC will survive, but he's too scared that he'll be wrong in the long run to actually interpret the data outside of any positive news. :lol::lol: I have a buddy like this. He gets his ass kicked in real life situations so much that he's become neurotic as hell about anything being "perfect. it's got to be perfect, it can't wobble at all, it can't be off center at all, if you buy something that's in a movie it has to look identical in every way, etc" because then he thinks no one can attack him. He's weak as f^(k.

What is your take on the articles you've shown us? I'm serious. Again, I'd like to know your take on the article information that you have been presenting here. :)

Patty Jenkins Addresses Working on Wonder Woman 3 and Star Wars: Rogue Squadron at the Same Time

https://comicbook.com/movies/news/pa...ogue-squadron/

To say that director Patty Jenkins is busy is a little bit of an understatement. Wonder Woman 1984 may have just debuted last week, but she already has quite a few things in progress, including the recently announced Wonder Woman 3 and the Star Wars film Rogue Squadron. With Rogue Squadron expected in 2023 and Wonder Woman 3 fast-tracked at WB, Jenkins will be working on both films at once and it's all a matter of organizing how the multiple projects can work at once.

Speaking with Collider, Jenkins confirmed that she will be working on Wonder Woman 3, Rogue Squadron, a Cleopatra movie and more once she finishes press for Wonder Woman 1984, revealing that she's going to working on all of the projects rather than simply focusing on just one.

"All of them really, and I have a TV show, all of them' but I'm super excited to head into... I think they're all great and I continue to push them along and we have sort of plans for what will go first and try to organize how multiple things can happen," Jenkins said.

She further explained that part of doing multiple things at once comes from each projecting needing more than just "one year" and that she's learning how to balance things.

"You can never do it in one year. You could never do a good Star Wars movie in one year or a good Cleopatra in one year. I think each of those movies take two years probably," Jenkins said. "But I do think, as I even learned on the two Wonder Woman's, I already had sold a limited TV series that I was in love with when they decided to move the Wonder Woman 1984 release date up. So suddenly it was happening on top of each other. And I was actually able to write a huge treatment and have a bunch of creative meetings and go off and do my show while pre-production was happening for Wonder Woman 1984. So, there are a lot of ways. Certainly, until I'm on set shooting Star Wars, I could be developing all sorts of other things and pushing them forward. It is actually possible. So, I think that's apparently how people do it, do multiple things at one time, which I'm usually pretty singularly focused, but I'm getting better at this all the time."

As for how Jenkins will do it, she's previously confirmed that she's already pretty far along in development of Rogue Squadron.

"We're very far into the — we're finishing the treatment basically, which is pretty big," Jenkins confirmed with Collider. "So, it ends up being like where you're fairly close to a well-along screenplay by the time I'm done with the treatment in my process. So yeah, we've been working on it for a while. It's going great. I'm super excited about it. I'm super excited about the story."

Star Wars: Rogue Squadron hits theaters on December 22, 2023. Wonder Woman 3 does not yet have a release date.

Next time post screenshots in big resolution.

It's like the opposite of me. I refuse to post links and this cat posts entire articles even though the link to them is clearly visible. :lol:

The link is plenty, Chief. If people wanna read the propaga- errr, the article, they'll click on it. No need for the full dissertation.

Eh... WW3 on hold because Patty Jenkins needs to take time and absorb what the result of the pandemic is? Eh, to what end (like, fingers crossed for the liberal utopia to emerge?)? And... why?

Also because she wants to do an Amazon movie in the mean time? Eh.

WW wasn't great but WW2 was terrible. It felt like a clusterf#ck of a movie thats not been seen since the Green Lantern film. Its not that the writer is bad because she is a woman, its bad cuz she is apparently a terrible writer & was given the task only because she is a woman. A 3rd one by her would suck more. I know if I were them, I'd hold off on more suckage.... until a decent, non-sjw writer came along who actually has a grasp on WW the character & her villains. But that'll never happen. :lol:

More like she waits until when people will forget what a cluster**** WW2 was.
Which won't happen and then she'll be able to play victim card, that her movie is hated by sexists. With media creating articles why WW2 was a great and "misunderstood" movie to brainwash population into thinking, it failed thanks to sexists indeed.

Development of WW 3 is again going ahead with Gal collaborating with James Gunn and Peter Safran.
