Recently, Jenkins appeared at Women in Film screening of 'Wonder Woman,' followed by a Q&A, where she said, "I had an epiphany about Wonder Woman 2. I was like, you don't have to do this. It doesn't have to be a foregone conclusion that you do Wonder Woman 2. But then as I was falling asleep I had an epiphany. I was like, Wait a minute. You have the greatest character of all time that you love dearly, with a cast that you love sitting at the palm of your hand at this day and age - you can do whatever you want with them - are you crazy? And then I suddenly realized, it's not more, it's another movie. It's its own movie. And it's got to be great," as quoted by Advocate magazine.Back in April, Jenkins also told Entertainment Weekly that she already envisioned where a sequel could take place.
"The story will take place in the U.S., which I think is right. She is Wonder Woman. She's got to come to America. It's time," she shared.
It should be noted that, ' Wonder Woman' has grossed over 663 million USD at global box-office.
