    James Gunn Says Casting for New Wonder Woman Hasn’t Started Yet But Film Is a “Priority”

    James Gunn isn’t in a rush to find the next Wonder Woman.

    The Superman director revealed that he’s not currently casting for his Wonder Woman film while responding to rumors that fans shared on Threads. Gunn confirmed that he is not actively looking for actors to star in the movie “nor even discussing it, until a script is finished.” 

    He also denied speculation that DC Studios is specifically in search of “an actress with a TV-centric resume, akin to Supergirl’s Milly Alcock,” for the titular role.

    “Nope. And I’d never in a million years look for a major role based on whether they did TV, films, or whatever,” he wrote. “It’s all about the casting.” 

    Of the upcoming Wonder Woman film, the Guardians of the Galaxy writer-director further tackled rumors that the project is being “fast-tracked,” according to reports. 

    “It’s a priority but I wouldn’t call that fast-tracked,” he said. “Nothing is going to be shot unless we’re as sure as we can be that the script is good.” 

    Gunn recently opened up about his casting process for Superman. The lead role ultimately went to David Corenswet, though Nicholas Hoult (who ended up playing villain Lex Luthor) notably also auditioned for the role of the Man of Steel. 

    “You know, Nick Hoult auditioned [for Superman]. He’s a great actor. I mean, some might say he’s better than David in certain ways, but he just didn’t fit the role, and that’s why he didn’t get that,” Gunn said. “As much as you can transform yourself as a person, Nick was just more controlled.” 

    Part of what sold Gunn on Corenswet as Superman was his chemistry test with Rachel Brosnahan, who plays Lois Lane.

    “One of the things that we were also doing was mixing and matching Lois and Clarks when we were auditioning them, and so I wanted to make sure that we had that chemistry right,” he said. “David had better chemistry with Rachel because she’s a very controlled actor, and David is a little bit more, you know, loose, and that creates a different type of dynamism onscreen.”
