Yesterday The HollyWood Reporter broke the story that Michelle MacLaren is leaving the upcoming Wonder Woman movie.

Michelle MacLaren the Emmy award winning Director and Producer has worked on numerous hit shows including Better Call Saul, Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones and X-Files.

MacLaren cited "Creative Differences" between herself and leadership at Warner Bros. and DC Entertainment.

A report surfaced this morning that MacLaren wanted to change some of Wonder Woman's backstory and add a animal side kick that Wonder Woman could talk to.   If true such changes would have very much alienated the fan base and potentially hurt large amount of revenue such a movie could earn.

Gal Gadot has signed on to play the Amazon Princess in several upcoming films including her first appearance in Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice currently scheduled for release in March 2016.   The Wonder Woman film is currently on track for release in June 2017.
