Paradise Lost will, per Gunn’s initial description, be the “story of Paradise Island, usually known as Themyscira, which is the birthplace of Wonder Woman.” Gunn also promised that it will effectively be the DCU’s answer to Game of Thrones, and it is widely characterized as a prequel set before the birth of Diana, focused on the broader Amazonian race. We now know who will be overseeing those machinations, thanks to an update via the Writers Guild of America website, which has listed Kira Snyder (The Handmaid’s Tale) and Janet Lin (Bridgerton) as the Paradise Lost writers. Both have worked on heavily female-focused shows with high character counts and high concepts, and while the shows they’re most known for may seem removed from the superhero world, Snyder has worked on major genre projects like The 100 and Alphas.
