"Amazons" Animated Series Being Considered

[Yojimbo]

In addition to the spin-off live action movie, Patty Jenkins revealed an animated series focused on the Amazons is being considered.

I think it could be interesting, but at the same time...can't we just finally give Wonder Woman her own animated series at this point ?

An animated series in relation to Wonder Woman is by far overdue. A spin-off would be great, but I agree that we should get a Wonder Woman: The Aminated Series like BTAS and STAS. I've loved the work of Patty Jenkins so anything Wonder Woman-related really excited me.

Agreed. It could be just a 3 parter like that Aquaman one for HBO Max. Feels like a WW series is going to happen soon. They can't say Wonder Woman isn't a money maker especially if WW '84 does really well. We finally got a DTV. It was a pity there hasn't been a Wonder Woman: The Animated Series but I feel like we're close.

Many years ago there was a project for an Wonder Woman animated series with rotating DCU guests.
I would love for it to finally happen!

I think we're definitely overdue for a Wonder Woman animated series.

 

[Pfeiffer-Pfan]

I have to echo everybody else...

Why would they do a generic ''Amazons'' animated series, before giving Wonder Woman an honest to god show of her own.

Surely they still can't be afraid to take a chance in some capacity?

I think it would be great to see a Wonder Woman: The Aniamted Series with Susan Eisenberg reprising her role as Wonder Woman to complete the DC Trinity.

Will this be for children or for adults?

 

[Otaku-sempai]

I'll repeat what I posted in another thread: What might make an Amazons show interesting to me is if it is set during the period when Diana is a young girl being raised among thousands of aunts and big sisters. That does raise the question, though, of what stories could be told at a time when Paradise Island was still hidden from the outside world, and how long before the writers run out of interesting ideas?

I think we're definitely overdue for a Wonder Woman animated series.

As long as no one revives the proposed and abandoned Wonder Woman and the Star Riders.

I don't really have much to add that hasn't been brought up before - it's weird seeing this possibly happening before a solo Wonder Woman animated series. But I do think it could be kind of cool having an anthology like series, each episode spotlighting a different Amazon or something, with Diana also showing up, hopefully. I agree it's kind of a similar concept to Aquaman: King of Atlantis (granted, not too many details are out for that show yet) and will probably end up only being a mini-series I guess, but if it will really be produced, I think it should help even more to pave the way for a full Wonder Woman animated show.

The writers of Big Hero 6: The Series are able to keep the series interesting with not that many villains.

Point is, not much happens on Themascyra. It's protected from the outside world. It's called "Paradise Island." The only way for them to get into trouble is if they venture outside of it, and only Diana does that. Who are they gonna fight?

Maybe they can base it off of the Diana: Princess of the Amazons graphic novel...

Whoever and whatever is imprisoned on the island. Could be mythological beasts in the forests on the island. Or sporadic incursions they "deal" with.

If Steve Trevor ended up there, surely something else could.

It could be a Themiscyra that is already open to the outside world.

Or it could be a show about conflicts existing on the island.

It could even be something similar to Asgard or Wakanda. A story similar to Black Panther set in Themiscyra would be promising.

I wouldn't be surprised if they use Ares and Circe .

 

[RoyalRubble]

I think there's enough material to pull from Greek mythology to have a few episodes centered on Themiscyra. Maybe it would get a bit boring after a while but it could be done. If they don't want to focus on Diana's upbringing (presuming this is in-continuity with the movies), it would be kind of funny if they focused on a potential Wonder Girl's training on the island.

Fun fact: The toy line for the scrapped show was ultimately retooled as the toy line for Tenko and the Guardians of the Magic.

Jenkins teases it takes place after Diana leaves Themyscira in the 1st WW movie but there are some twists and turns that link to what happens between WW'84 and the 3rd WW movie. (EDIT: She might have been referring to the movie)
