Lynda Carter In Talks To Join WONDER WOMAN 2 Cast; More Details On The Sequel's Setting Revealed
Original Wonder Woman Lynda Carter has revealed that she's in talks to join the cast of Patty Jenkins' upcoming sequel and some additional details have also surfaced pointing to a unique 1980s setting.
As you no doubt already know, Lynda Carter played Wonder Woman in the 1970s TV series and the actress has now confirmed that she's in talks to join the cast of Patty Jenkins' upcoming big screen sequel starring Gal Gadot. During a chat with Megyn Kelly, Carter said she's had discussions with the filmmaker and it sounds like it's now down to her to decide what role the iconic actress could play.
"That is up to Patty Jenkins. I’ve been talking to her about it," she revealed. "She’s given me some hints about it and I guess it’s up to Warner Bros if they want to spend the money … It really is up to Patty, and if it works in an organic way it’ll be great fun and it’ll be wonderful to do." It sounds like an awesome cameo and seeing as Carter has shown up in Supergirl, it's hard to imagine the studio not being willing to sign her up, especially as her appearance would be appreciated by a lot of fans.
On a separate note, we've previously heard that Wonder Woman 2 will be a period piece but The Wrap elaborates on that by noting that Wonder Woman 2 will indeed see Diana Prince square off against the Soviet Union during the 1980s. The sequel is set to be released on December 13th, 2019 and with production set to start later this year, we'll hopefully start getting some official details fairly soon.
