Few details were revealed beyond it exploring\u00a0Themyscira&#8217;s past long before Diana Prince was born (Game of Thrones was said to be an inspiration).<\/p>\n<p>DC Studios co-CEOs James Gunn and Peter Safran may live to regret the day they announced that slate, especially as\u00a0The Brave and the Bold,\u00a0The Authority,\u00a0Swamp Thing,\u00a0Waller, and Booster Gold have either fallen apart or found themselves stuck in development hell.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>However, several other movies and TV shows are\u00a0being developed, including\u00a0Clayface,\u00a0Man of Tomorrow,\u00a0Blue Beetle,\u00a0DC Crime, and Mister Miracle (the Sgt. Rock movie has seemingly fallen by the wayside).\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Supergirl scribe\u00a0Ana Nogueira has been tasked with writing a Wonder Woman movie, so where does that leave Paradise Lost? Well, it&#8217;s not good news for those of you looking forward to the series.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>According to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/live\/mLgIp9ktBZc\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">John Rocha<\/a>, &#8220;Sources are telling me that DC was meeting with writers for Paradise Lost, was taking pitches for Paradise Lost, but\u00a0they&#8217;ve been informed that the project is dead. Paradise Lost is dead. [It] will not be happening as a TV show. And not dead in the sense of like, well, they&#8217;re just going to wait for a script.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They&#8217;re being told, these writers and these people who&#8217;ve pitched storylines for Paradise Lost to be the showrunners or the writers on Paradise Lost, they&#8217;ve been told that this project is now dead, no longer an active development. Dead. And that is a massive bit of news because I think a lot of people felt that it was a little weird that you were going to do a Themyscira show but not have Wonder Woman in it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It was last summer when we first learned of plans for\u00a0Nogueira to write a\u00a0Wonder Woman\u00a0reboot. She&#8217;s someone James Gunn and Peter Safran clearly have a lot of faith in, as this will mark the playwright&#8217;s third DCU project.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Nogueira first came to our notice when she was tapped by Warner Bros. to write a\u00a0Supergirl\u00a0movie, spinning out of 2023&#8217;s\u00a0The Flash. Sasha Calle was dumped from the role when DC Studios was formed, but Gunn and Safran immediately hired her to pen his vision for\u00a0Supergirl.<\/p>\n<p>Nogueira also wrote\u00a0Teen Titans\u00a0for DC Studios, which has yet to be officially greenlit. Now,\u00a0it seems the studio wants the writer to prioritise bringing Diana Prince back to theaters, something Gunn and Safran arguably should have been doing three years ago.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As for Paradise Lost, it never generated much in the way of excitement, so we&#8217;re sure most of you will be happy to see the focus shift to Wonder Woman instead.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"When DC Studios announced its &#8220;Chapter 1: Gods and Monsters&#8221; slate three years ago, one of the most&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":454954,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[52],"tags":[88,206,119858,76234],"class_list":{"0":"post-454953","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-movies","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-movies","10":"tag-paradise-lost","11":"tag-wonder-woman"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/454953","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=454953"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/454953\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/454954"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=454953"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=454953"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=454953"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
