Interesting choice, for sure. Good resume even for TV and seems right to jump to feature film considering the scope of both shows, Game of Thrones especially.

It was going to be the movie's subtitle, so I believe it was in reference to being chosen to become a Green Lantern.
Which is complete bullshit on par with them wanting to cut the Lantern rings out of the movie. Not just anyone can be chosen to become a Green Lantern. Only a person with tremendous willpower can be a Green Lantern. The green rings are powered by a person's willpower.

Sure, Guy Gardner may be a jerk, but he has great willpower. They aren't mutually exclusive qualities.

And Abin Sur only selected Hal over Gardner because Jordan just happened to be closer.
Regading G'nort, he only got a ring because one of his relatives was a famous member of the Corps and used his influence to get him inducted..

She's a TV director and etc. Good luck to her cuz aside from heading a WW movie... people will bitch about her being a woman directing. And if it becomes a crap film... more shit to the wall on that front.

I had to search as to who Leder was. Never seen anything she has done. Still haven't seen deep impact. Not sure if I still want to...*shrug*

Fuck that! The Peacemaker is one of my favorite action movies ever!
Hiring a director mostly known for TV to film a comic book movie worked out pretty well last time someone tried it so I'm sure it'll work out ok this time too.

They can hire all the directors they want. There won't be any legitimate hype for this movie--or any other WB/DC movie for that matter--until people see what their shared universe looks like in BvS.

Still hasn't been greenlighted?

So what is Warners doing with the DCCU? Are they only going to greenlight one movie at a time? Wait to see if the current entry bombs before pulling the trigger on the next one? If the take on WW isn't well-received in BvS, will they then retcon the character away and do a reboot? (Which is pretty much how DC runs its comics, with constant soft reboots and retcons. I remember that they even retconned Wonder Woman into of "Identity Crisis" a few years after that story was published after the "Crisis on Infinite Earths" retcon that removed her from the pre-Crisis Justice League was retconned by "Infinite Crisis.")

Michelle Maxwell MacLaren has a vivid imagination. During a lunch last month at the Soho House in West Hollywood, I ask the director for details about the DC Comics epic Wonder Woman, which she was picked to direct after a lengthy, widely publicized search. She stirs her tea. Then she warns that at the moment there is no script, no release date. There’s not even an official green light from the film’s releasing studio, Warner Bros. — and even if there were, nondisclosure agreements and her paranoia about jinxing things would keep her mum. “I really, *really, really can’t talk about this,” she says, then gestures toward the restaurant’s picture windows, with their action-film-worthy Hollywood panoramas. “I just picture a drone coming in over the hills and crashing through the glass and flying over here and putting duct tape over my mouth, you know?”

Disney needs to just buy DC too. WB has no fucking clue what they are doing. It makes a DC fanboy like me cry that we will never get a DCCU that is even half as good as the MCU.

That's weird, so MacLaren was hired, yet she can't confirm the film has even been greenlit, let alone a script being written. So, she's getting paid to be a "Stand by director?"

I thought they just recently came out with release dates for all the DC films through 2018 or so? Wonder Woman wasn't on there?

I'm guessing Warners will change or cancel 80% of those dates. Mostly change, but they'll cancel some based on reception of what they do release.

They just want to check with Marvel first to see when their movies are coming out. Then they can schedule their's a month away from it.
