And now for some not-so-wonderful news: The CW is not moving ahead with its previously announced Wonder Girl series.
Ugly Betty scribe Dailyn Rodriguez, who penned the initial Wonder Girl script, broke the news in a tweet on Friday: “For all of those asking, Wonder Girl is not getting picked up at The CW.
In taking on the Wonder Girl title, using her new powers to fight evil, Yara would have been the first Latina superhero to headline a DC Comics TV series.
Wonder Girl first went into development at the network in November 2020, envisioned as an hourlong drama series about DC Comics character Yara Flor, a Latina Dreamer who descends from an Amazonian warrior and a Brazilian river god.
