James Gunn’s revelation that a Wonder Woman movie is now in development, alongside the already-announced Paradise Lost TV series centered on the Amazonian, has sent fans into overdrive with their casting suggestions – with one name coming out as a strong leader even though everyone is convinced the controversy surrounding the star would make it an impossible casting choice.

When James Gunn and Peter Safran took over the helm of DC Studios, there were immediate questions over who would be taking over some of the iconic superhero roles that were previously played by Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck, and Gal Gadot, among others. Initially, it seemed that Gadot could possibly be appearing as Wonder Woman in the Dcu, with the actress suggesting this to be so. Over time, though, it has become apparent that Gunn will mostly be cleaning the slate of the old Dceu and that means a new Wonder Woman will rise.

This past Sunday, the legacy of The Librarians was further established, as a new series, The Librarians: The Next Chapter, made its premiere. A number of episodes in, and the spin-off has carried on the legacy of the original installments within the franchise while attempting to establish itself as its own thing. One of the main figures in the original movies and television show was The Pitt's Noah Wyle, starring as Flynn Carsen in the first movie in 2004's Quest for the Spear, and the subsequent sequels in 2006's Return to King Solomon’s Mines and 2008's Curse of the Judas Chalice, before a four-season stint in the 2014 television series spin-off. So will Wyle's make an appearance in The Next Chapter?

Although The Librarians: The Next Chapterwon’t featureThe Librarians star Noah Wyle as Flynn Carsen, there is a good reason that the series star isn’t putting in an appearance on the new series just yet.

Now, the franchise is coming back with a brand new series, although Wyle's original protagonist won't be in the mix.

Speaking to Screenrant's Grant Hermanns, showrunner Dean Devlin reveals how Wyle's involvement in the new show could lead to the actor reprising his on-screen role. As such, viewers might reasonably expect to see Wyle return to the role in the new spinoff The Librarians: The Next Chapter. While The Librarians: The Next Chapter is connected to the original series,...

There is great skepticism whenever a reboot or revival of a proven hit series is announced.

Despite being popular, some networks wait and see in the development process before handing out a formal series order.

When The CW confirmed in May 2023 that it had picked up The Librarians: The Next Chapter, it came out of the blue.

(TBS/Screenshot)

For one, the original series was canceled in 2018 by TNT after a four-season run.

There was a big push from the show’s fans and creatives to find it a new home, which sadly didn’t amount to a send-off.

(TBS/Screenshot)

Then, there’s the fact that there was little indication that CW could even afford a sci-fi series, considering it canceled the bulk of its scripted originals around that time.

Despite The Librarians: The Next Chapter being in development for the network’s 2023-2024 schedule, I was stunned when...

Wonder Woman has always been a tricky character to adapt, and over the years, we’ve seen Gal Gadot don the iconic armor in Batman Vs Superman and her solo films. Now that a new era of DC has begun, with James Gunn at the helm, will he learn from his predecessors?

Gadot’s run as Diana Prince seems to be over, and Gunn is ready to recast, but will that be enough? Joss Whedon’s words seem like a warning to upcoming adaptations of the character. So, as Gunn leads DC’s future, he can’t afford to ignore the lessons of the past.

Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman in Justice League | DC Films What Joss Whedon says about Wonder Woman

Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman was one of the most iconic and powerful heroes in the Dceu. She played a demigoddess and Amazonian warrior princess who hailed from the island of Themyscira.

A fan-favorite choice for the role of Wonder Woman in James Gunn’s slowly emerging Dcu has expressed interest in joining the comic book movie franchise as the Amazonian superhero. At present, little is known about Gunn and his DC Studios co-ceo Peter Safran’s plans for Wonder Woman, with the iconic hero glimpsed in animated form in the Creature Commandos series and a prequel series titled Paradise Lost reportedly in the works.

The lack of insight into their ideas includes a total lack of knowing who will play Wonder Woman and thus take over from Gal Gadot when the character does make her Dcu debut. Well, one fan-casting favorite, Hit Man star Adria Arjona, has now expressed interest in the coveted role. Footage shared by YouTuber and X/Twitter user @yara_wayne finds Arjona being asked about the potential of her playing Wonder Woman, to which she responds with...

In the DC Universe, one of the most fan-beloved characters of all time, especially among the superheroes, is none other than Diana Prince, aka Wonder Woman. For years, the iconic character has amused fans worldwide, and previously, Gal Gadot ensured fans felt the same way about her. But now the times have changed, and James Gunn holds the reigns to the Dcu.

That said, now that Gadot has ostensibly left the mantle behind for other younger actresses to take on the role, Gunn has a really hard decision waiting ahead for him. This is because the current debate is raging between actresses Adria Arjona and Jessica Green with respect to the potential candidate to replace Gadot, and choosing one might not be the easiest task for the co-ceo.

It has been a while since we’ve seen Wonder Woman in theatres, and it is such a shame that we never got to see the planned third installment with Gal Gadot in the lead. With James Gunn’s revamped franchise, DC Universe will introduce a new future for the character, and that goes with the fact that we are getting a new star for the role.

As the filmmaker indirectly confirmed that a Wonder Woman project would soon land on the franchise, he also talked about his method of casting for the role, which involved only hiring professionals to star in his films.

The wait for Superman & Lois Season 4 has just been shortened. The CW has rearranged its fall schedule, moving the hotly-anticipated final season of the superhero drama series from Thursday nights to Monday evenings.

Per Deadline, Superman & Lois Season 4 will debut with a two-hour premiere on Monday, Oct. 7, on The CW. The Arrowverse-adjacent series was originally scheduled to premiere on Thursday, Oct. 17. The move is believed to be in response to ABC creating a two-hour game show block on Mondays with fan-favorites Celebrity Wheel of Fortune and Press Your Luck, which would have gone head-to-head with The CW's upcoming game shows Scrabble and Trivial Pursuit. The CW's game shows will now air on Thursdays, beginning Oct. 3.

The fantasy series “The Librarians” is making a comeback on its original network TNT. The cable channel will air a new spinoff titled “The Librarians: The Next Chapter.” This comes as a surprise, as the CW network had recently renewed the show.

Dean Devlin, executive producer of the series, got a call from Sam Linsky at TNT. Linsky worked on “The Librarians” since it started on TNT in 2004. He told Devlin that TNT missed the show. This led to talks of bringing it back. Devlin said moving the show required “a little coordination,” but everyone agreed to the change.

The deal between TNT, CW, and Electric Entertainment is unique. TNT will produce original scripted programming again after a break. Also, this makes CW a production studio for the first time. Brad Schwartz, president of CW, said fans will love the next chapter.

“The Librarians: The Next Chapter” will have two 12-episode seasons on TNT.
