Man of Steel was met with a mixed response and both Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Suicide Squad were torn apart by critics. Wonder Woman was the DC Extended Universe's first major critical and commercial hit and it's fair to say that we have director Patty Jenkins to thank for that.
In a new interview, the filmmaker was asked about working in this shared comic book universe and praised both the characters and the fact that Warner Bros. brings a lot to the table in terms of variety.
"There are a lot of great filmmakers around the DC universe and there are a lot of great characters. My favourite thing about the DC universe is some of these characters have been the greatest, most original superheroes for decades. I think there’s just exciting things to be done with them ahead and lots of different people that I’m excited about seeing. All of us are very different and we’re all going to do different things. So I can’t wait to see the variety, personally."
Horror director James Wan is directing Aquaman and, well, most of their movies don't have directors, but there's no denying that the studio seems to think outside the box when it comes to hiring them.
As for the characters, it's hard to beat the likes of Batman, Superman, and the Flash, not to mention Wonder Woman! What do you guys think? As always, be sure to share your thoughts down below.
