That's surprising. Maybe they just canned whatever was planned and decided to go back to the drawing board.

Legitimately surprised. WW84 was awful, but I figured they'd keep going with the franchise.

At least this gives some context to Gal Gadot randomly tweeting about how she loves playing WW the other day.

The Rock currently feeling a bit nervous...

In all seriousness if they didn't just announce Cavill was coming back I'd take this news as them rebooting the DCEU. Now I have no idea.

Oh wait missed this;
There's no word on what the future of the franchise is and whether, under a potential reboot or reset, if Gadot will remain in the role. And it's not just her, either.
The report states that DC's new plan could be to close down the Snyderverse and shut down Man of Steel 2 starring Henry Cavill, as well as end Aquaman movies starring Jason Momoa.

Okay. See ya.

seems like what's going on with WB is a shit show, as Wonder Woman is one of DC's most staple characters.

I guess as far as popular female characters go, they only have Harley Quinn now, since they're cancelling the movies of the others.

hopefully James Gunn can turn the franchise around.

This is intentional malpractice happening at Discovery.

I heard they're trying to rename HBO Max, which is just about the best name of any streaming service, to just "Max" which is garbage and breaks search engines.

There's a lot of drama happening it seems

https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-features/wonder-woman-3-not-moving-forward-dc-movies-1235276804/

The first, which builds on the shuttering of Jenkins Wonder Woman 3, is the closing curtain of the Snyderverse, and the heroes cast by filmmaker Zack Snyder for his Justice League. This one sees the shutting down of Man of Steel 2, with a returning Henry Cavill, and having no more Aquaman, fronted by Jason Momoa.
These characters are to cameo in Flash, the highly-anticipated time travel adventure movie that is due to release June 16. Cavill shot his part of the cameo in September. But sources say there is a debate inside the studio as whether or not to keep the cameo and if its inclusion promises something that studio would have no plans on delivering.
A Warners insider cautions that no plans have been finalized and that Flash remains an unlocked picture.
The Cavill situation is a more than a little thorny as the actor made a cameo in Black Adam, the DC-centric movie released in October. The Monday after the movie opened, Cavill posted a video on Instagram where he announced, I wanted to make it official I am back as Superman.

And at that time, he was not incorrect. Warner Bros. was indeed developing a sequel for 2013s Man of Steel and actively meeting with writers. Andy Muschietti, who directed Flash, even expressed interest in sitting behind the camera for something that would have brought a tone similar to the hopeful and heroic colors of the 1978 movie directed by Richard Donner, considered a benchmark in comic book movies. In fact, the current leadership team at Warner Bros Pictures Michael De Luca and Pamela Abdy did desire one more go-around of the Snyderverse heroes, possibly even having another Justice League movie with those actors.
But that was before Gunn and Safran began formulating their new (and still in flux) plan.
Also unlikely is a sequel to Black Adam. Despite the hype surrounding the movie of launching a new corner of DC, a lot of it led by star Dwayne Johnson, the movie has only grossed $385 million worldwide and insiders at the studio say the movie, which cost more than $190 million to produce (two sources peg the actual cost at $230 million, not including marketing), will be lucky to break even, even considering ancillary revenue. Even if the movie does eke out a minimal profit, any follow-ups inherent rising costs dim the prospect of a sequel.
Johnson hoped to carve out his own piece of the DC pie, but multiple sources say his playing up of a returning Cavill and his own involvement with DC may not be endearing him to the new management. Johnson and Cavill are both managed by Dany Garcia, who is also Johnsons producing partner. The perception of Adam turning a profit or not is a conflagration now being waged in public, with Johnson tweeting the movie would net over $50 million after a Variety story said the movie would lose over $50 million theatrically.

It also mentions that they might keep Momoa...as Lobo.

Basically seems like the only thing safe is The Batman sequels and the Penguin TV show. Peacemaker as well probably?

It means they rejected the pitch given to them by Patty Jenkins.

The next WW movie is probably gonna be a reboot.

This is all from the new DC movie heads including James Gunn. Sounds like they haven't even presented their plan to Zaslav yet.

I am not surprised.

The Warner/HBO purchase was largely ideological. WW is female, and Gal is brown and jewish. The CEO/stockholders who would rather kill off HBO, HBO Max and other properties just to "fight the woke" were expected to do this.

I don't know why but I find it hilarious that there's still somehow dramas with the DCEU.

Who could have predicted that The Rock may be the final nail for the Snyderverse. Seems like bringing back Cavill was all tied to him and his manager (who is also his ex-wife).

Now the failure of Black Adam may have killed off Man of Steel 2 before it truly began along with Cavill being The Witcher. Damn. DCEU just keeps delivering.

Apparently Patty Jenkins is out and her script was rejected. They aren't really "cancelling" WW3 as much as they are just not going with Jenkins plans for WW3.

Unless there's another version of Wonder Woman 3 in the works that effectively means the same thing at this point.

It also isn't looking promising considering all of the other insider rumors.

I don't envy anyone trying to fix this mess.

Batman vs Superman

Suicide Squad (James Gunn did redeem this one)

Justice League and the Snydercut mess

Wonder Woman 84

Black Adam (not because of the movie itself but more on how Rock is trying to take creative control to benefit his own career)

Flashpoint being set up as a sort of reboot by people who have since been fired with a leading star who is crumbling

Batgirl being cancelled along with the Michael Keaton plans that also seem to have been cancelled

People shit on Disney handling Star Wars but bloody hell look at all that shit!

At a certain point is the stuff that is working even really worth keeping it it's attached to all of that?

84 is like two different unfinished versions of the same movie that were cobbled together in post-production. There are definitely good scenes, but the whole thing is such a narrative mess that there's no way that was the intention.

Wonder Woman 84

The movie that doesn't want you to think about that what the hero is doing is rape and incredibly immoral while also giving the villain an origin story where she fights back against sexual assault.

What a weird movie. Probably the strongest argument that could possibly exist for executive meddling.
