Wonder Woman star Gal Gadot has finally responded to reports that she
wouldn't return for the sequel if Brett Ratner, who has been accused of sexual misconduct, remained involved with the franchise.
Warner Bros. has reportedly
already broken ties with Ratner and his production company RatPac-Dune Entertainment, who co-financed the original, Gal Gadot has finally cleared the air herself.
Gadot weighed in on the entire situation on the TODAY Show, and confirmed herself that Ratner is no longer involved with the DC film franchise.
"The truth is, there's so many people involved in making this movie. It's not just me, and they all echoed the same sentiments. So everyone knew what the right thing to do, but there was nothing for me to say because it was already done before this article came out," Gadot said.
Warner Bros.
recently shifted their calendar around and now
Wonder Woman 2 is scheduled to release on November 1, 2019, avoiding direct competition with Disney and Lucasfilm's
Star Wars: Episode IX.
