With Wonder Woman 3 currently in pre-production, the DCEU’s habit of ignoring Diana Prince’s bisexuality can no longer continue. Wonder Woman, otherwise known as Diana Prince, was confirmed by DC Comics to be bisexual in 2016, one year prior to the release of the first Wonder Woman movie. Wonder Woman's first sapphic relationship was debuted in Wonder Woman Vol 5 #2, one year prior to the release ofWonder Woman. With plenty of opportunities to address the Amazonian princess' sexuality, however, the DCEU has failed to provide queer representation for Diana that has been explicit in the comics.

NeitherWonder Woman, Justice League, norWonder Woman 1984 have conveyed Diana's bisexuality. However, in the comics, not only has Diana had romantic relations with Althea, Mala, and Kasia, she is even noted to have clear romantic chemistry with the likes of Cheetah/Barbara Minerva and Batwoman. Wonder Woman 3 has the potential to illustrate this aspect of Diana's sexuality, which, until now, has been focused on Steve Trevor. Her bisexuality could be explored by bringing in one of the many female characters from DC Comics who have the potential to feature as Diana's new lover. By now, it's an insult that it hasn't even been acknowledged.
