‘Wonder Woman’ Shooting This Fall, ‘Justice League’ Shooting Next Spring
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justicewon’t even hit theaters for another eight months, but the DC Cinematic Universe has no time to waste. We now have confirmation that shooting thatWonder Womanshoot date is set for this fall, while cameras onJustice Leaguewill roll next spring. More details on theJustice LeagueandWonder Womanshooting schedule after the jump.
While we already had a vague idea of the production timelines forWonder WomanandJustice League,Empire’s newBatman v Supermancover story firms up some details. Here’s the relevant bit (viaComicBook.com):
Logistically it is staggering. As Batman V Superman gains its coat of special effects, and the various stages of editing, scoring, grading and sound mixing are completed, Deborah Snyder, along with Roven, is watching over a sandbox that stretches around the world. Jenkins is in London prepping Wonder Woman, which will shoot there this autumn. Suicide Squad, already well underway in Toronto under the earthy gaze of Ayer, will shoot through to September. “I do watch the dailies,” she promises, enthusing about the film’s “street quality.” They are already doing soft prep for the Justice League, which will begin shooting in the spring, and overseeing the script for Aquaman, which James Wan will direct.
Wonder Womanhit a snag earlier this year when directorMichelle MacLarendropped out, to be replaced byPatty Jenkins. However, it doesn’t sound like that shakeup has thrown the film too far off course — we heard all the way back in February thatWonder Womanwas eyeing a fall start.Wonder Womanis scheduled to openJune 23, 2017, and will starGal GadotandChris Pine.
TheJustice Leaguetimeline has been less clear, but a spring 2016 start makes sense since Part One is due outNovember 17, 2017. Part Two is slated forJune 14, 2019.Justice Leaguewill feature the return of Gadot as Wonder Woman, plusHenry Cavillas Superman,Ben Affleckas Batman, andJason Momoaas Aquaman.
In the meantime,Batman v Superman: Dawn of JusticeopensMarch 25, 2016.Suicide Squadfollows a few months later onAugust 5, 2016.
