Director Patty Jenkins is in the driver's seat for DC's solo film adaptation of Wonder Woman, a film that is already generating positive buzz for the DCEU. At one point though Jenkins was going to be at the helm of another mythical hero, one who resides in the Marvel cinematic universe.

That hero was Thor, and it was for his sequel Thor: The Dark World. Due to creative differences, Jenkins and Marvel parted ways, with Alan Taylor taking over the project. Still, Jenkins had big plans for Marvel's Asgardian powerhouse, but the good news is that most of the themes she had planned eventually made it into Wonder Woman. ComicBook.com's Brandon Davis had the chance to chat with Jenkins about what aspects of The Dark World made it into Wonder Woman.

"I mean they're very similar in a lot of ways," says Jenkins. "It's a lot of the same questions and a lot of the same struggles that I was interested in Thor's story or here, although in that case it was the second movie so it would never have been as pure and as simple f an arc so I really think it was meant to be that I ended up doing this one, which I had always wanted to do anyway. And I got to do it in a kind of bigger and purer arc rather than putting it in that other story." Wonder Woman currently enjoys a 4.05 out of 5 on ComicBook.com's anticipation rankings, and you can view the entire interview with Jenkins in the video above.
