Charlize Theron did not join the cast of Wonder Woman 2 despite a report dating back to 1945. a year ago who speculated that the actress had signed for the superhero sequel. Gossip Cop demystified the report this time last year.

On July 24, 2017, HollywoodLife and some other media suspected that Theron was joining Gal Gadot in the second film Wonder Woman on the basis of a comment made to Comic Con . During a panel titled "Women Who Kick Ass", Theron read a note from the director of the film, Patty Jenkins, with whom she worked in the 2003 film Monster . Part of the letter said, "I can not wait to work with my friend someday," to which the actress replied, "We will do it … I would love to work again with it. "

A handful of publications interpreted Theron's words as an official announcement that she joined Wonder Woman 2 . The actress, however, has never suggested that she had a role in following DC Comics. She simply stated that she planned to work with Jenkins again someday in the future. Again, Gossip Cop checked with a representative for Theron when casting rumors emerged last year, and we were told that the actress was "definitely not "involved in the Wonder Woman ] continued. Unlike the theory about the career of a star, we make sure the reliable sources authorized to speak on their behalf.

Another female star joined the sequel to the comic, entitled Wonder Woman 1984 ] Last February, it was announced that Kristen Wiig would play the villain of the film, Cheetah an archaeologist capable of transforming himself into a half-human and half-cheetah hybrid.

Meanwhile, Theron has a few projects lined up, but none of them includes Wonder Woman 1984 which is currently in production. In May, Theron was cast as Megyn Kelly in a film about Roger Ailes and Fox News. The following month, Theron signed to express a role in a film Addams Family animated.

It is worth noting, Theron declined a role in the first Wonder Woman because of scheduling conflicts, but she has never been approached for the sequel. It has been reported that the actress first offered the character Robin Wright General Antiope, who does not appear in the follow up. Because of Theron's relationship with Jenkins and the fact that she circled the first film, it is not excluded that the actress involves herself in the franchise at any one time. As for Wonder Woman 1984 this is not the case.
