She’s the only League member left in an uncertain place. During a triumphant montage in Zack Snyder’s Justice League epilogue—a sequence which likely would’ve closed out the film before 2020’s reshoots added extra scenes—nearly all the heroes appear at peace. Superman finally gets the iconic shirt-rip; Batman stands on the Bat-tank from The Dark Knight Returns, looking into the night; and Cyborg grieves his father. But Wonder Woman? Gal Gadot’s beloved superhero is in an ambiguous place in her signoff. For nearly three hours, that’s the last we see of the magical volley. But in Wonder Woman’s last scene, she holds it again, now draped in black and staring across the Aegean Sea, presumably toward the island of Themyscira. It was the place of her birth and the home she abandoned a century ago to fight in World War I. The implication is clear: Diana wants to go home. There is a guilt in Diana’s ferocious cries of anger. And it is ever so satisfying that Zack Snyder’s Justice League restores the ending where Wonder Woman personally severs Steppenwolf’s head from his body. But the longing to go home and be with her mourning sisters persists. At the start of the movie, Diana confidently strides into the temple wearing white; at the end of the film she vacillates in black, her confidence waned. Obviously the setup is Diana will seek to go home in a future sequel. It’s unclear exactly why she is unable to return to Themyscira after the events of Wonder Woman, but a magic separates her from her mother. Obviously, it’s a magic that is about to be tested. Could this be the direction of Wonder Woman 3? It’s hard to say. The tease could’ve just as easily been intended to set-up Wonder Woman 2 before Zack Snyder’s departure threw the DCEU’s best laid plans to the wind, and Patty Jenkins wound up designing what became Wonder Woman 1984 from the ground up. Technically the Snyder Cut isn’t even canon, so the wistful and homesick Diana at the end of ZSJL doesn’t need to inform the one who, canonically-speaking, was most recently seen smiling for pictures at the end of the Justice League theatrical cut. While I doubt we’ll ever see that thread carried further along by the DCEU, the thought of Diana being homesick and ready to see her mother and sisters again would be a nice place to start Wonder Woman 3…
