Learn more about The Wonder Twins
Zan and Jayna, The Fantastic Twins are two aliens from the planet Exxor. These characters were originally created for the animated series The All-New Super Friends Hour.
Norman Maurer, William Hanna and Joseph Barbera, founders of the Hanna-Barbera studio, which produced different animated series based on the Justice League, are the creators of The Wonder Twins.
Both aliens have abilities to transform, when they collide their fists as long as they don’t wear gloves. Zan turns into different structures based on ice or water, while Jayna can shapeshift into any animal.
Zan’s name is an homage by Norman Maurer to Edgar Rice Burroghs’ character Tarzan. While Jayna derives from the name Jane, the romantic interest of the Ape Man.
In the comics, the Wonder Twins debuted in The Super Friends #7 (October 1977), filling in for the characters Wendy, Marvin, and Wonder Dog.
For the Wonder Twins’ big-screen debut, Black Adam screenwriter Adam Sztykiel will direct the film, which will represent his feature debut.
The Wonder Twins is a film that will arrive exclusively on the HBO Max platform, with a release date not yet defined.
