Wonder Girl Live-Action Series No Longer Moving Forward at The CW

After not hearing many updates on The CW’s Wonder Girl series, writer Dailyn Rodriguez took to Twitter to reveal that the development of the live-action DC series has officially been cancelled and is no longer moving forward at The CW. The Wonder Girl series was supposed to center around a new DC character named Yara Flor, who debuted last month as part of DC Comics’ Future State event. The live-action series would have mark the first Arrowverse series headlined by a Latina actress.

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.

Created by writer and artist Joëlle Jones, Yara is introduced as the daughter of an Amazon Warrior and a Brazilian River God. Yara will succeed Diana Prince as the next Wonder Woman, but the fate of Diana herself is still unclear. Fans first got to meet her in the Future State event last January which is a two-month event that hits pause on all ongoing DC titles and instead propels fans into an uncertain future, where many of the DC Universe’s A-list characters have either died or passed on their mantles to younger heroes.
