I loved making superhero movies \u2026 you never know, but I\u2019m having a good time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Wonder Woman follows Diana (Gadot), an Amazonian warrior princess who leaves her hidden island home after meeting American pilot Steve Trevor (Chris Pine) who tells her about a massive war raging in the outside world.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Believing she can stop the conflict, she discovers her full powers and true destiny as she fights to bring peace to humanity.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Jenkins had been due to helm a third Wonder Woman movie, but the project was shelved when James Gunn and Peter Safran took over DC Studios and ultimately rebooted the DC Universe.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Following Wonder Woman 3\u2019s cancellation, Jenkins went back to Lucasfilm to resume her work on Star Wars: Rogue Squadron.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">During an appearance on the Talking Pictures podcast, she said: \u201cWhen I left Star Wars to do Wonder Woman 3, we talked about coming back afterwards so we started a deal for that happened. So when Wonder Woman 3 went away, Lucasfilm and I knew we had to finish the deal.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cI am back on doing Rogue Squadron and we&#8217;ll see what happens.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The Monster filmmaker explained that she was a huge fan of the sci-fi series, and had always wanted to tackle a Star Wars movie.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">She explained: \u201cThe emotion of Star Wars and what it stands for is so beautiful. Star Wars was born out of World War II and it is like \u2026 how do you make a metaphor, and talk in metaphor? So in that way I&#8217;ve always wanted to make a fighter pilot, it&#8217;s been a dream of mine.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cI always had a hard time with it because I&#8217;m in love with the jets of the \u201870s and \u201880s but I think Star Wars is so beautiful, so yes if I can do something beautiful and do something and serves that audience then I would love to do it, of course.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cRogue Squadron is a particularly exciting project because, like other recent Star Wars projects, it is beginning to move to other stories in the galaxy outside the ones focused on Force users and Jedi.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">After Wonder Woman 3 was dropped, Pine admitted he was \u201cstunned\u201d DC had decided not to move ahead with the project.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">He told Business Insider: \u201cI\u2019m stunned that they said no to a billion-dollar franchise and decided to pivot elsewhere.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cI don\u2019t know what the reasoning was behind that; it\u2019s above my pay grade, but Wonder Woman is an incredible character. Patty is such a thoughtful director.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source ca.movies.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Patty Jenkins is open to directing another movie for DC.
