Wonder Woman beats Batman V Superman at US Box Office

She's also going to be indelibly tagged as 'makes movie-killing demands" regardless of how righteous this particular instance might be. That will cause other companies to look elsewhere when casting. She doesn't have nearly the talent or gravitas to be making threats of this magnitude outside of this one role. No one not already entangled with her will willingly expose themselves to the risk of "what 'costs-us-half-a-billion-dollars-if-we-don't-comply crusade is she going to go off on next time?"

Because regardless of the moral high ground, studio executives don't generally care to indulge ultimatums from actors. I'd be unsurprised if Rat-Pac is pushed out but her career is quietly over. That's pretty much textbook "how to get blacklisted" even with the current house cleaning going on.

Ratner has long been regarded as extremely talented but a real scumbag to work with, dating all the way back to the X-men days. The studios -- even WB -- cannot afford the bad publicity without investigating or repremanding him.

As far as Gal getting blacklisted....if they decide to do that with her as well as anyone speaking out these days, there won't be much of a Hollywood left.
