Not to mention, this is an action film, and a female director helming a big-budget action film needs to have balls, as in, they need to think like a man and be self-aware of the demographic Marvel appeals to. Women aren't going to see "Wonder Woman." Men, ages 18 to 30, are going to see "Wonder Woman," depending on how it's being marketed. If "Wonder Woman" is going to be marketed as some cliché, faux feminist "girl power" type of film, it's going to flop on a colossal scale. And, based on movie-viewing experience, that's what female directors love to do (and that's why they're not good). In business, the girls that think like a man are always the successful ones. Harsh truth. And that's why Hillary Clinton is going to win the presidency (unless her campaign is going the annoying "girl power" route). Meanwhile, Angelina Jolie is too soft. Stick to remaking Disney princesses, like Sofia Coppola.
