At Wonder Con this weekend DC/Warners brought their Wonder Woman game and revealed some great new details on the movie as well as the DC Cinematic Universe in general.
Firstly, before we go further, it is clear at this point that a Wonder Woman sequel is not in the works – probably with DC working on so many other projects including Nightwing, Gotham City Sirens, Batgirl, Suicide Squad 2, Man of Steel 2 and more – not to mention that Wonder Woman hasn’t been released yet, President and Chief Creative Officer at DC Comics, Geoff Johns said: “I can’t confirm that.”
Probably as a response to the constant reporting that the DC movies are far too serious and dark, Johns also said that what they need is “heart, humor, and heroics” and they will be fine.
And he also said that Wonder Woman is the greatest fighter in the DC Universe:
Geoff Johns thinks that Wonder Woman is the greatest fighter in the DC universe. Those are fightin’ words! #WonderCon
