At this point it should go without saying, but Wonder Woman was a massive hit and the first bonafide success for DC Films in their budding shared universe. It’s done so well that other people in Hollywood want in on the action.

In an interview with Variety, Academy Award-winning actor Geena Davis revealed that she wants in on the announced Wonder Woman sequel.
“Certainly Wonder Woman needed to be made, and I’m so beyond thrilled with how it came out,” Davis said. “I met Patty Jenkins and I told her, ‘I’m sure you’re going to make a sequel and if you need anybody Amazonian, there’s always me. I’m available.’”
Davis is no stranger to action films. She starred as an ass-kicking protagonist in many films such as The Long Kiss Goodnight and Cutthroat Island, and has many other iconic roles in films like A League Of Their Own and Thelma & Louise.
The actor is currently starring on Fox’s television adaptation of The Exorcist and has a new movie in theaters called Marjorie Prime.
Davis has a dominant presence on screen backed by amazing talent, so her involvement in the Wonder Woman sequel would be a welcome addition. Though she has yet to star in a superhero film, Davis would likely blow any role she takes out of the water.
Maybe she could play Barbara Minerva AKA Cheetah, Wonder Woman’s best friend turned bitter foe? She definitely has the ability to play a great villain, more so than a supporting role. Hopefully we learn more about Wonder Woman 2 soon.
Wonder Woman is in theaters now. The film will hit Digital HD on August 29th followed up its release on Blu-ray and DVD on September 19th.
