Omega Underground is reporting that Wonder Woman 2 will undergo principal photography in the United States this summer.
Production begins on the highly-anticipated DC Extended Universe sequel on May 28, 2018 and Omega Underground claims that some filming will occur around Northern Virginia/District of Columbia. This supports a quote from director Patty Jenkins, who told Entertainment Weekly the following:
“The story will take place in the U.S., which I think is right. She’s Wonder Woman. She’s got to come to America. It’s time.”
Omega Underground speculates that given the presence of Washington D.C., the White House and the C.I.A., the U.S. government may have involvement in the story given the Cold War setting of the film.
