Yara Flor, the Brazilian Wonder Woman and star of Future State: Wonder Woman, will be the first DC hero to get her own post-Future State series, titled Wonder Girl.
According to Deadline, Future State: Wonder Woman creator, writer and artist Joëlle Jones will helm a new Wonder Girl series for DC. The CW is also developing a Wonder Girl television series, which is described as "a Latina Dreamer who was born of an Amazonian Warrior and a Brazilian River God, learns that she is Wonder Girl, and with her newfound power must fight the evil forces that would seek to destroy the world." Dailyn Rodriguez will serve as executive producer and co-showrunner, along with Berlanti Productions' Greg Berlanti, Sarah Schechter and David Madden. It's also worth noting the series will exist within the Arrowverse, recently dubbed the CWverse.
"We will eventually discover that there are connections to the other tribes of the Amazons that we have established," Superman Group Editor Jamie S. Rich said regarding Yara Flor in Future State. "Yara does have some connection to the Amazons, and part of what we'll discover in her origin is what activates her position, what makes her Wonder Woman at this time. She's from Brazil, but was an immigrant to America. There's also that element of her story. Even though we'll see her currently active as Wonder Woman, eventually we'll learn what her origin is - partially her figuring out what that means, where she's from, why this is her, how she relates to Diana, how she relates to the other Amazons."
Author L. L. McKinney (Nubia: Real One, A Blade So Black) and Alitha Martinez (Represent) will also collaborate on a Nubia Wonder Woman story for Future State: Immortal Wonder Woman.
"The DC Universe has always been fertile ground for new and refreshing takes on our characters, and DC Future State definitely contributes to this legacy," DC Executive Editor Marie Javins said when DC Future State was officially announced. "When the event begins in January, some savvy readers will not only pick up on some of the breadcrumbs that have already been tossed out in our current titles, but they will also find new hints and clues of what's to come in 2021."
DC Future State is a two-month, line-wide event beginning in January 2021. February will feature a combination of monthly and twice-monthly oversize anthologies, as well as a monthly schedule of miniseries and one-shots starring current and future DC heroes.
