The original Wonder Woman could actually be joining Gal Gadot in the DCEU, if Warner Bros has enough cash.

The Amazonian princess was famously played in the '70s on US TV by Lynda Carter, who has been an enthusiastic supporter of Gadot and director Patty Jenkins' reinvention of Wonder Woman.

Gadot has shown support for her predecessor as well, having paid tribute to the pioneering actress earlier this month as Carter got a long-overdue star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Their friendly vibes might soon be making the jump to the big screen because Carter confirmed on NBC's Today with Megyn Kelly that she's been approached to appear in Wonder Woman 2.

"That is up to [director] Patty Jenkins, I've been talking to her about it," she revealed. "[Jenkins] has given me some hints about it and I guess it's up to Warner Bros if they want to spend the money."

Carter first campaigned for a part in the sequel during Wonder Woman's dominating box office run last summer, saying at the time: "I adore [director] Patty Jenkins, and it'll be wonderful to do. But we'll just see how that goes.

"It really is up to Patty, and if it works in an organic way it'll be great fun and it'll be wonderful to do."

If a deal can be worked out, Lynda Carter would be starring alongside Kristen Wiig as Wonder Woman 2's main villain Cheetah, as well as Game of Thrones veteran Pedro Pascal.

Wonder Woman 2 is currently on course to begin production this summer, in order to reach US and UK cinemas on November 1, 2019. Watch a trailer for the original film below:
