When it was revealed that The CW had started developing a Wonder Girl TV series, the news definitely came as a surprise to fans. After all, the character hadn't even made her comic book debut at that point, and actually showed up for the first time last month as part of DC Comics' Future State event.
However, there were still a lot of reasons to be excited for the show; for starters, it would have been the first series in The CWVerse headlined by a Latina actress, while the concept of Yara Flor taking over the Wonder Woman mantle from Diana Prince was an undeniably intriguing one.
Unfortunately, Wonder Girl is not moving forward at The CW.
Writer Dailyn Rodriguez (Queen of the South) has confirmed via Twitter that the network passed on the pilot. "So some sad news. For all of those asking, Wonder Girl is not getting picked up at the CW. I was very proud of the script I wrote. Wish I could’ve shared the world I created, but unfortunately it wasn’t meant to be. Thanks for everyone’s enthusiasm. It meant a lot to me."
We don't have any specific details on why Wonder Girl has been scrapped, but it doesn't sound like this iteration will be finding a home elsewhere. Is it possible that there are plans for the character in Wonder Woman 3? Who knows, but for now, Yara will sadly not be making her live-action debut.
