Pedro Pascal roped in for Wonder Woman sequel

 Director Patty Jenkins is bringing on Narcos star Pedro Pascal for a key role in her Wonder Woman sequel starring Gal Gadot.

Pedro Pascal is on board for the follow-up to 2017's hit, joining Kristen Wiig, who has been cast to play the villain role of Cheetah. The film would mark the second collaboration of Pascal and Jenkins together, having previously teamed up on the TV movie Exposed. 

Patty Jenkins would be returning to write, direct and produce the movie. And the studio has slated to release the film on  November 1, 2019.

The plot details of the film and the character Pedro Pascal will be playing are still being kept under wraps.

Pedro Pascal gained traction in Hollywood with his show-stealing performance as Oberyn Martell in Game of Thrones followed by the Netflix series Narcos in which he played the role of Javier Peña.
