Jenkins treatment for Wonder Woman 3 was rejected by Warners executives when she presented it.
A day later, The Wrap claimed that Jenkins had quit the film due to a disagreement with the studio over notes.
Jenkins opened her message on Twitter with the words “Sigh… I don’t want to talk about people’s personal careers, but I won’t stand by while errors persist. These are the details.
The enticing clickbait fake tale that it was I who killed it or went away started to circulate when there was outrage about WW3 not happening, according to Jenkins. “This is demonstrably untrue. I never left the room. I was willing to do everything that was requested of me. I believed that at this point, there was nothing I could do to make progress. I recognise that DC is now dealing with a lot of changes, so I can appreciate how challenging these choices are.
She continued, “I do not want what has been a beautiful journey with WW to land on negative note. I have loved and been so honored to be the person who got to make these last two Wonder Woman films. She is an incredible character. Living in and around her values makes one a better person every day. I wish her and her legacy an amazing future ahead, with or without me.”
Jenkins went on to praise “absolute legend” Lynda Carter, the original Wonder Woman who appeared briefly in Wonder Woman 1984, and franchise Gal Gadot, whom she called “the greatest gift I have received in this whole journey. A cherished friend, inspiration, and sister.
Continued Jenkins: “There are no words I can use to convey how magical she is. She is the walking embodiment of Wonder Woman in real life and a better person than the world can imagine. Never once in the millions of moments I have spent with her did I see anything less. She is a gift to this world, and even more so, to me.”
Jenkins first gained notoriety with the 2003 film Monster, which won Charlize Theron an Oscar for outstanding actress. After working for several years in the television industry, she rose to prominence as a filmmaker with the historic 2017 film Wonder Woman, the first studio superhero movie to be helmed by a woman. $822.8 million was made worldwide from the critically acclaimed movie. She then directed Wonder Woman 1984, which was released on HBO Max on the same day as the epidemic in 2020 and earned just average ratings.
