Promising Young Woman Director Has Landed Her Next Project And It’s A DC Fan-Favorite

Emerald Fennell will write a Zatanna movie, which will be a product of Warner Bros’ and DC Film’s partnership with J.J. Abrams’ Bad Robot banner. Variety doesn’t mention if Fennell will also direct Zatanna, and the role of the eponymous magician has hasn’t been cast yet. Zatanna marks the DCEU’s fourth female-led property, with Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman, in addition to her ensemble appearances, having already starred in two adventures (with both a third movie and a spinoff on the way) and Harley Quinn, Huntress, Black Canary and Renee Montoya having come together last year in Birds of Prey.
