James Gunn Confirms Wonder Woman Role Not Yet Cast in DCU Projects

James Gunn, co-chief of DC Studios, has addressed and debunked rumors that actress Adria Arjona has been cast as the new Wonder Woman in the DC Universe (DCU). Gunn clarified that he has known Arjona for years, having worked with her on a film seven years ago, and that following her on social media was unrelated to casting decisions. While he praised Arjona as a talented actress who would be a great Wonder Woman, he emphasized that no actress has yet been chosen for the role. Gunn also revealed that a Wonder Woman movie is currently being written, alongside a television series titled Paradise Lost focusing on the Amazons of Themyscira, both in early stages of development without finalized casts or release dates. The speculation about Arjona’s casting appears fueled by fan enthusiasm and her connections within the DCU, including her relationship with Jason Momoa, who will play Lobo in upcoming DC projects. Overall, Gunn's openness about the development process contrasts with the secrecy typical of other cinematic universes, fueling ongoing fan interest.
