Bronson helmer fancies Wonder Woman
A shot at the project, that is...
Cannes 2010 - Director Nicolas Winding Refn has stated he'd like to direct Wonder Woman .
The Pusher and Bronson helmer was in Cannes this week to sell upcoming Ryan Gosling thriller Drive , and took the opportunity to share h♋is current dream project.
"I 𝄹want to make Wonder Woman," Winding Refn said, quite unambiguously. "They haven't asked me yet, but I really want to do it."
Studios, are you listening?
The live-action Wonder Woman project has been in development hell for y🍌ears on end, with every vaguely exotic looking actress from Angelina to Megan having been linked to the role at some point.
Cult TV deity Joss Whedon was attached to🌌 write and direct for a period, but left the project in 2007 citing "creative differences" with the studio.
Which is a bugger, as if there's one thing Whedon does well it is writing beautiful, kick-ass women who are surprising and complex and flawed, and there isn't nearly enough of th🍷at going around in Hollywood.
