If rumours are anything to go by, it seems Warner Bros. has their eye on actress and comedian Kristen Wiig to take on the villain role in the upcoming Wonder Woman movie. Wiig is being tipped to be the top choice to play Cheetah in the sequel but Warner Bros. isn’t commenting on the possible casting news. The movie is slated for a November 1, 2019 release so finding someone to fill in an important role is key.
According to insiders, Wonder Woman director Patty Jenkins has always had Wiig on top of her list to play that part and she has let the actress know before she left to scout for locations for the film. Wiig reportedly had a recent meeting with top execs from Warner Bros. about this project. Guess we’ll find out soon enough if the next Wonder Woman film has found its baddie.
