“Wonder Girl” DC Series in Development at The CW

A drama series based on the DC character Wonder Girl is being developed at the CW. 

Deadline was first to report that Greg Berlanti and the network are working on a new superhero series based on the DC characters created by Joƫlle Jones. The series hails from Queen of the South executive producer and co-showrunner Dailyn Rodriguez and Berlanti Productions.

The one-hour drama follows Yara Flor, a Latina Dreamer who was born of an Amazonian Warrior and a Brazilian River God. She learns that she is Wonder Girl and with her newfound power must fight the evil forces that would seek to destroy the world.

News of a Wonder Girl series comes after DC Comics unveiled Flor as the next iteration of Wonder Woman in a series of upcoming comics titled Future State.

Should the project go to series, Wonder Girl will join the networkā€™s Arrowverse, which includes The Flash, Supergirl, Legends of Tomorrow, Black Lightning, Batwoman and the upcoming Superman & Lois.
