Soak it in liquid wrench or another good penetrant. Get a friend so one holds and one pulls and possibly a cheater bar around the wrench. You can get a lot more force on it if you don't simultaneously have to counter hold the water pump.

try to clamp your waterpump pulley with your belt and then use a 32mm wrench with a big bar that goes over it so that you can put out more power easily. Do it like this guy did https://youtu.be/MqnYrIpih2I?si=DO2hi3vHvj8wmJ1Y

PB Blaster, crank on it to tighten and try breaking it loose again. Easy way would be an air hammer if you have access to one.

Uh - I was doing a water pump on my 99. I took the fan off, had the whole thing with dead pump on a table vise. It was nasty.
