DC's 'Wonder Woman' may break the dominion of male superheroes at the box office as Warner Bros have hinted that they may revive her on the screen.

Warner Bros CEO Kevin Tusjihara hinted on the studio's next possible tentpole project recently, expressing his keen interest in making a new take on Wonder Woman, reported Ace Showbiz.

Calling the lack of DC superhero movies other than Batman and Superman franchise "a missed opportunity," Tusjihara said the studio had "huge plans for a number of other DC properties on TV."

"We need to get Wonder Woman on the big screen or TV," he said.
 

Marvel too is currently planning a female superhero flick.

"Thor" star Natalie Portman recently said, "There are definitely many strong women, but it will be exciting when there is a central female character which I think is coming - I have heard is coming.
