“Wonder Woman is the most popular female comic-book superhero of all time. It's exciting the Amazonian Goddess is finally getting her just cinematic due next year in Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice followed by her own standalone film in 2017,” in a report by Heroic Hollywood.

The standalone film is claimed to be directed by Patty Jenkins after the exit of Michelle Maclaren.

“Industry insiders have indicated that since Warner Bros. wanted a more character-driven story that is light on action, MacLaren's desire for an epic origin tale was the reason she parted with the studio,” stated in Variety.
