The actor will be workin­g opposi­te Pedro Pascal, Gal Gadot and Kriste­n WiigRiz Ahmed, known for his roles in The Reluctant Fundamentalist and Star Wars: Rogue One, might be starring in the next Wonder Woman installment, reported Metro UK. In terms of casting for Wonder Woman 2, Jeff Snieder said, “I would imagine that Pascal is playing someone who is maybe a villain of some kind.”Speaking of the kind of role Ahmed is being eyed for, Snieder explained, “There were two decently sized male roles for Wonder Woman 2. I heard Ahmed might be roped in for that role.”The rumours surfaced after director Patty Jenkins confirmed that Kristen Wigg will be making her debut as Cheetah, the antagonist in the film. So incredibly lucky to welcome the sensationally talented Kristen Wiig to our Wonder Woman family. @GalGadot pic.twitter.com/Gn0jICiIAH — Patty Jenkins (@PattyJenks) March 9, 2018The movie is slated to release on November 1, 2019.
