Although Gal Gadot has only appeared in cameo roles in recent DCEU films like Shazam! Fury of the Gods, she remains optimistic about her character's future in the franchise.

Gadot's portrayal of Wonder Woman is considered iconic, just like Linda Carter, who was a pivotal part of the Wonder Woman television series, which began in 1975. Gadot has starred as Wonder Woman thus far in several DCEU films, including Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice, Justice League, Wonder Woman, and Wonder Woman 1984.

For many fans, the direction of the DCEU was in a state of limbo owing to not only the Screen Actor's Guild and Writer's Guild of America strikes but also the underperformance of The Flash. The news of projects like Aquaman and The Lost Kingdom being delayed due to reshoots did not help matters.

Confirmation about Wonder Woman 3 has generated hype for the DCEU's revival under James Gunn's leadership. However, in the wake of the ongoing strike, it is likely that fans will have to wait a while for further information about the project.

Gal Gadot confirming Wonder Woman 3's existence, and that she's working together with Gunn and Safran, has helped to ease the fears of some fans, who were concerned about the future of the live-action projects.
