Gal Gadot has addressed speculation surrounding her future as Wonder Woman, saying she has not had any specific discussions about returning to the role while offering warm wishes to whoever eventually takes on the mantle of Diana Prince.
Gal Gadot has given fans an update on her future as Wonder Woman—and her latest comments suggest that there are currently no specific plans for her to return to the iconic DC role.
Speaking in an interview with ScreenRant, Gadot said she had not had any recent specific discussions with director and DC Studios co-head James Gunn about reprising the character.
The actor, who is set to appear next in The Runner, also shared a heartfelt message for whoever may eventually portray Wonder Woman in a future DC project.
‘I Didn’t Have Any Specific Discussions’
Gadot, who played Diana Prince across multiple DC films, addressed questions about whether she had spoken with DC Studios about another appearance as Wonder Woman.
According to her, her last major discussion about the character came when plans were being explored for a third Wonder Woman film.
Gadot said that the studio had previously expressed interest in developing the next instalment, but she had not heard further developments regarding her future with the character.
Her comments are likely to disappoint some fans who had been hoping to see her once again take on the role that became one of the most recognisable parts of her career.
Gal Gadot’s Message for the Next Wonder Woman
Despite the uncertainty surrounding her own future in the role, Gadot made it clear that she remains deeply appreciative of the character and everything Wonder Woman represents.
“This is such an incredible character that so many of us care about so much, so whoever it’s going to be to portray her, I wish for her that she enjoys this amazing ride with this amazing character,” Gadot said.
She also reflected on her own experience playing Diana Prince.
“And I’m just grateful that I was granted the opportunity to wear her boots and celebrate this incredible character and everything she stands for,” she added.
The comments underline Gadot’s continued affection for a role she portrayed for several years and across multiple major DC productions.
Gal Gadot’s Journey as Diana Prince
Gadot first appeared as Diana Prince in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice in 2016.
Her performance generated significant interest in the character and was followed by the release of her standalone film, Wonder Woman, in 2017. The movie became a major milestone for the superhero genre and helped establish Diana Prince as one of the central figures of DC’s modern cinematic universe.
She later returned as Wonder Woman in:
- Justice League (2017)
- Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)
- Zack Snyder’s Justice League (2021)
Gadot also made later cameo appearances connected to the DC film universe, including appearances in Shazam! Fury of the Gods and The Flash in 2023.
What Happens Next for Wonder Woman?
The future of Wonder Woman on the big screen remains a subject of considerable interest among DC fans.
With DC Studios developing a new direction for its interconnected universe, questions continue to surround when Diana Prince will return to cinemas and who will eventually portray her.
Gadot’s latest comments do not confirm the casting of a new Wonder Woman. Instead, they indicate that she is not currently discussing a specific return to the role, based on the information she shared in the interview.
Her message to the next actor, however, offers a graceful acknowledgment of the character’s future beyond her own time wearing Wonder Woman’s iconic armour.
A Legacy That Continues Beyond One Actor
For Gadot, Wonder Woman appears to remain a role associated with both personal gratitude and professional pride.
Her portrayal introduced a generation of moviegoers to a cinematic version of Diana Prince defined by strength, compassion and resilience. Now, as DC continues to shape its future plans, Gadot says she hopes the next actor to take on the role enjoys the experience as much as she did.
While fans may still hope for another appearance from Gadot as Wonder Woman, her latest comments suggest that no specific return has been discussed publicly with her at this stage.
