If you want another Wonder Woman movie, you need to roll up your sleeves and get to work, according to Lynda Carter.

Carter, the star of the 1970s Wonder Woman series, who also had a cameo as Asteria the warrior in Wonder Woman 1984, told Yahoo Entertainment that Warner Bros. won’t revive the franchise unless fans start demanding it.

“I don’t think they want to do it unless there’s enough pressure from fans,” the original Diana Prince tells Yahoo Entertainment.Carter said. “I just don’t think they have the mind to do it. And I don’t understand that, because it seems to me that Wonder Woman is different from other characters. She’s not just a superhero. Her whole thing is about peaceful solutions. She’s not aggressive to be aggressive. It’s a different story. It’s about inner strength, outer strength. I don’t know why they tabled it, because it’s a great franchise.

Plans for a third film with director Patty Jenkins at the helm were scrapped by Warner Bros. in 2022 during its DC overhaul, but Carter has inside knowledge of what the film, had it been made, was about.

That film “was really interesting, wonderful and about something important,” Carter said. “Not just your typical thing. But they don’t want anyone else to make it.”

Jenkins, who is currently lensing Star Wars: Rogue Squadron, is less hopeful. She said in a recent interview that WWIII is dead, “for the time being, easily forever.”

Carter starred in the delightfully campy Wonder Woman series from 1975 to 1979. Before her big screen debut as the Amazonian warrior, star Gal Gadot consulted with Carter. Jenkins wrote her into a scene at the end of Wonder Woman 1984, teasing what could have been a larger role for Carter’s character in the third film.

“I have to give a lot of credit to Patty and Gal because the interest in my show had peaked when they came on the scene,” said Carter about the first ever feature film about one of the DCEU’s core characters.

Their vision “was intentional — and how I played the character was intentional. To be good, kind, strong and do everything for the right reasons. Even when she was angry, she was angry at the right people.”
