Get ready for a thrilling twist in the DC Universe! The rumor mill is buzzing with the news that Adria Arjona might be the top choice to don the iconic Wonder Woman costume.
For those who haven't heard, Adria Arjona, known for her roles in Andor and Hit Man, has been a fan favorite for the role of Wonder Woman for quite some time. And now, it seems that DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn might be on the same page.
According to the gossip account DeuxMoi, Arjona is Gunn's number one pick to portray Diana in the upcoming movie currently in development. While DeuxMoi is primarily a celebrity gossip source, they've dropped some accurate movie scoops in the past. Remember when they hinted at Barry Keoghan's potential Joker role and Lady Gaga's interest in Harley Quinn? It seems this rumor might just hold some weight.
But here's where it gets controversial... James Gunn himself has addressed the potential casting of Arjona as Diana. Last year, he shared his thoughts, saying, "I follow Adria on Instagram, and everyone was quick to assume she's Wonder Woman. She'd make a fantastic Wonder Woman, by the way." Gunn clarified that he's known Arjona for years, having worked with her on a project seven years ago. So, it's not just a recent follow on social media!
Of course, even if Gunn is considering Arjona, it doesn't guarantee she'll land the role. But the actress herself seems keen on the idea, as evidenced by her playful response to fans at the Mexico City premiere of A Minecraft Movie. When asked about the "rumor," she shrugged and asked fans to "write about it... help me."
In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, Gunn addressed the "fast-tracking" of the Wonder Woman project. While he downplayed the idea that production is imminent, he confirmed that the movie is a top priority for DC Studios. He shared, "We've got some other projects close to green-lighting, like a TV show we hope to announce soon. But now, we really need Wonder Woman and Batman. It's become crucial to figure this out. We have talented writers working on Wonder Woman, and we just need to ensure the script is on point."
So, what do you think? Could Adria Arjona be the next Wonder Woman? It's an exciting prospect, and with Gunn's involvement, it seems like this rumor might just become a reality. Keep an eye out for more updates, and let us know your thoughts in the comments! Are you excited for this potential casting choice?
