In December 2019, Wonder Woman and Wonder Woman 1984 director Patty Jenkins revealed in an interview during CCXP 2019 that she was working on an "Amazon-focused movie." In the interview, she stated that she wouldn't be able to direct the film and that Gal Gadot shouldn't star in it, but she assured that she was attached to the project as an executive producer. In regards to plans for the film and the future of the Wonder Woman series Jenkins said, "We already have it all mapped out — it’s just a matter of will we change our minds and when."
In April 2020, Jenkins said that she had a story arc planned encompassing the first and second Wonder Woman films, The Amazons, and then Wonder Woman 3. She revealed that she and Wonder Woman 1984 co-writer Geoff Johns had come up with the story for The Amazons and sold the pitch. She reiterated that she would "hopefully" not direct the spin-off but would produce it.
In November 2020, Jenkins revealed in an interview with Geek Magazine that The Amazons picks up after the events of Wonder Woman but contains twists that will connect to what happens between Wonder Woman 1984 and Wonder Woman 3.
In February 2021, Connie Nielsen revealed she would be reprising her role as Queen Hippolyta in the film and that The Amazons would be both a prequel and a sequel to the original Wonder Woman film, potentially focusing on the origins of the Amazons themselves.
On January 31, 2023, James Gunn announced the first part of Chapter One: Gods and Monsters, with Paradise Lost as one of these projects.
