Jason Momoa, Gal Gadot, and the other Snyderverse stars will not be back as their current roles in James Gunn’s and Peter Safran’s DCU.
According to a new report from Variety, the actors will no longer be reprising their roles as Aquaman and Wonder Woman. We already knew the DCU Chapter One: Gods and Monsters slate marked the end of the road for several characters, including Henry Cavill as Superman and Ben Affleck as Batman, but it was thought both Momoa and Gadot may be back.
However, the report notes that just because they’re not coming back as their current characters, it doesn’t rule out a return full stop. Momoa has been in talks to play Lobo, and Variety suggests this could be in the 2025 movie Superman: Legacy. That movie will introduce a new Superman and Lois Lane to the DCU, played by David Corenswet and Rachel Brosnahan.
The only characters from earlier DCU projects who seem to be unaffected are those in Peacemaker. This means Viola Davis’ Amanda Waller will be back and even has her own series on the way and then John Cena will return in Peacemaker season 2 as well.
