Wonder Woman: 9 Signs It Will Redeem The DCEU
4. The Screenwriters Know What They Are Doing
While Warner Bros. has proclaimed the DCEU a filmmaker-driven enterprise, the studio has a bad habit of fiddling with production at all levels, including the script. If the studio had given David Ayer more time to complete his screenplay for Suicide Squad, the movie might have fared better with the critics. BvS also had some major script issues (insert 'Martha' joke here) and part of this could be blamed on the studio tapping a neophyte to the comic book genre, Argo screenwriter Chris Terrio, to pen the screenplay. While BvS nailed the comic book action, the characterization of the title stars, especially Superman, felt at odds with the way the characters were traditionally portrayed.
Warner Bros. corrected this misstep by hiring two comic book veterans to pen Wonder Woman. Geoff Johns is the chief creative officer for DC comics and is now the main architect of the DCEU. Johns wrote Wonder Woman's script with Allan Heinberg, another DC veteran who helped Johns launch a new Wonder Woman comic book series following a successful run on the Justice League. Both writers have a deep understanding of the character and will ensure the cinematic Wonder Woman stays true to her origins.
