The latest scoop from HeoricHollywood's El Mayimbe (formerly of Latino Review) is that Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman is really old in Zack Snyder's Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. In fact, she's been around for centuries! It sounds outlandish, but this actually lends itself to previous reports that the Wonder Woman film will be something of a prequel to the DC Cinematic Universe, with the Amazonian warrior's solo outing being a Period Piece.



It will be interesting to see whether Snyder goes with Wonder Woman's New 52 origin- that she's half-Olympian God, the daughter of Zeus ( a female Hercules essentially).



Snyder could also opt for the pre-New 52 origin which details her origin as a clay statue given life by the Olympian Gods. The third option, is that Snyder comes up with a completely new origin story for Wonder Woman but that seems unlikely given Snyder's penchant for remaining relatively close to the source material.



What do you think of this rumor? Would you like it to be true? Or do you think it would raise too many questions about what Wonder Woman has been up to all these years and why she's kept her existence a secret until Batman v Superman?
