Following the recent news about Patty Jenkins' departure from "Wonder Woman 3," the director posted an update on social media to set the record straight:

"I originally left 'Rogue Squadron' after a long and productive development process when it became clear it couldn't happen soon enough and I did not want to delay 'Wonder Woman 3' any further. When I did, Lucasfilm asked me to consider coming back to 'Rogue Squadron' after 'Wonder Woman 3,' which I was honored to do, so I agreed. They made a new deal with me. In fact, I am still on it and that project has been in active development ever since. I don't know if it will happen or not. We never do until the development process is complete, but I look forward to its potential ahead."
