Fans Petition For Diana To Be Bisexual In WONDER WOMAN Sequel

A new petition has emerged from the former campus ambassador for GLAAD at New York University pushing for WONDER WOMAN's titular character to be bisexual in the 2019 sequel.

Back in September of last year acclaimed Wonder Woman writer Greg Rucka confirmed in an interview with Comicosity what comic book readers had known since time immemorial, that the Princess of Themyschira is a bisexual character. Now in recent years great strides have been made in the print medium of comics in regards to queer characters (admittedly with some ebbs and flows) but this has yet to be reflected in the big screen adaptations of these heroes.

Enter Gianna Collier-Pitts, who was a GLAAD ambassador at New York University - for she has started a petition on Change.org to have this characteristic of Diana shown in the much anticipated sequel to the smash hit Wonder Woman set for release in 13th December 2019.



With Wonder Woman giving us our first major solo superhero film led by a woman and a lot of that films lasting and strong impact coming from women and girls seeing themselves justly represented in this kind of film the question then comes -  with Diana also being a member of the LGBTQ community why shouldn't the sequel engage with that audience as well?

As Collier-Pitts writes “representation is power” and what is more characteristic of Wonder Woman than giving power to the powerless and spreading that Love is indeed Love.
 
Of course we've yet to have any information about what the Wonder Woman sequel will entail, it's currently being written by director Patty Jenkins, Geoff Johns and as recently reported Godzilla writer Dave Callaham but what do you think? Would you like to see this represented in Wonder Woman 2? Leave your comments below.

Wonder Woman 2 is currently slated to hit theaters on December 13, 2019 and will see Gal Gadot reprise her role as the titular heroine.

@JoeMomma29 - and let’s not forget it’s not “fans”. I’m a fan, know quite a fee other fans (of WE and comics in general) and no one ever felt the need for Diana to ve bi. By “fans” the article actually means “LGTBQ members with a political agenda”. I fixed it now.

I will be the first to say that forcing religions or beliefs in movie is just UGH!

Just like how Snyder pushed all the religious crap in MOS and BvS......it was not needed.
