Warner Bros. Reportedly Already Canceled DC's WONDER TWINS Movie

A couple of weeks ago it was announced that Warner Bros. had cast 1883 actress Isabel May and Riverdale actor KJ Apa to co-star in DC’s live-action Wonder Twins movie. The movie was being produced for HBO Max, but the film has now reportedly been canceled.

The report comes from That Hashtag Show and the decision to scrap the project was made after the WB and Discovery merger. They say the film's cast and crew were informed of the decision last week, but as of right now, there’s no official confirmation that this is actually the case.

The Wonder Twins follows the adventures of two shape-shifting alien siblings named Zan and Jayna, and they should be fun characters for these two talents to take on. The characters were first introduced in the 1970s Hanna-Barbera animated television series The All-New Super Friends Hour. 

The characters have the ability to activate their superpowers by touching hands and saying the phrase, "Wonder Twin powers, activate!" Jayna can transform into an animal, while Zan is a shapeshifter. They are from the planet Exxor are were being informally trained by the DC superheroes.

Black Adam and Rampage co-writer Adam Sztykiel wrote the script and he was going to direct the movie. Production was set to begin this summer in Atlanta.

The Wonder Twins are a couple of silly characters that I’ve personally never really had any interest in. This film might have made for a fun comedy, but if it doesn’t get made, I don’t think people are going to miss it.
