Patty Jenkins Explains Why There Was No Post-Credits Scene In Wonder Woman

If you went to see Wonder Woman, then you probably stayed through the credits. Marvel has conditioned us to stay, despite the fact that most movies don't do post-credits scenes. There was no scene to be seen in this one, and director Patty Jenkins spoke to the Toronto Sun about it:

"I'm not always a believer in post-credit scenes. I feel like they make sense if the films are extremely similar. I think if you know the next movie is going to be set in the same world or have the exact same tone, then I think it makes sense. To me, it does not make sense to have a commercial for a completely different style of movie in the credits of another movie. One of my favourite things about the DC Universe is they were super supportive of me doing my own tone, but there's no other movie that they have that's of the same tone. So it just felt weird to do some other crossover. Also, the end of the movie was the end. It wasn't, 'Tune in later for more.'"

She was also asked what the best part of working in the DC Extended Universe is:

"There are a lot of great filmmakers around the DC universe and there are a lot of great characters. My favourite thing about the DC universe is some of these characters have been the greatest, most original superheroes for decades. I think there's just exciting things to be done with them ahead and lots of different people that I'm excited about seeing. All of us are very different and we're all going to do different things. So I can't wait to see the variety, personally."

Variety is important when it comes to keeping a cinematic universe interesting. These are some of the biggest and most famous characters of all time, and it's going to be really interesting to see who does what with each character.

Summary: Before she was Wonder Woman she was Diana, princess of the Amazons, trained warrior. When a pilot crashes and tells of conflict in the outside world, she leaves home to fight a war to end all wars, discovering her full powers and true destiny.

Wonder Woman, directed by Patty Jenkins, stars Gal Gadot, Chris Pine, David Thewlis, Robin Wright, and Connie Nielsen. It's available on VOD and Blu-ray today.
