In a lengthy report over at Global License, Warner Bros. Consumer Products goes a long way to assure fans that Wonder Woman will not be excluded from "Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice" merchandise.

"Our comprehensive program will include Wonder Woman in the merchandise lines and in standalone products supporting the film," said Karen McTier, executive vice president, WBCP. "We have always had a robust line for Wonder Woman, and her role in this film and future films offers us more opportunities to feature her character and empowering attributes in many creative ways."

A number of promotional images of Wonder Woman have already surfaced, illustrated in the same style as various shots of Batman and Superman. The need to clarify and state Wonder Woman's firm place in the "BVS" merch line may come in response to the continual fan outcry surrounding the lack of licensed products featuring female characters from Marvel movies.

"This is the first time ever that fans will see Batman and Superman together in a theatrical event. And let's not forget the two new Batsuits, a new Batmobile, the Batwing, a new logo and Wonder Woman that all create really merchandisable elements for our partners," McTier said to Global License. "We have had phenomenal success with each character in their own world, but now we are able to supercharge the opportunity based on the most universally recognized Super Heroes."

Key licensees include Mattel, Rubie's Costume Co., LEGO, Bioworld and Hallmark. The article states that merchandise for "Batman V Superman" will begin to roll out eight weeks ahead of the film's release. "Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice" opens on March 25, 2016.
