Casting Wonder Woman


My biggest problem with these kind of discussions is that everything is always about physical apperance but that's really the least important thing. These things can be faked. Hair can be dyed. Colored contacts can be made. Muscle can be worked on.

Even height is not that important to me... Remember that Hugh Jackman is almost a foot taller then the character he portrays but few people can argue that doesn't personify Wolverine.

Obviously physical attractiveness is important since she's going to be running around in basically a glorified swimsuit but it shouldn't be the only thing.

Regardless of this, here are two things I think are vital to anyone portraying Wonderwoman.

#1) I think the ideal age for Wonder Woman is 30. I don't want the most powerful woman in the world being played by a college freshman.

#2) I think that Wonder Woman should be portrayed by an unknown (this rules out Megan Fox, Jessica Biel and a lot of other really horrifying choices)

Reflecting this, I'm interested to hear your opinions...

Like Lynda Carter - Christopher Reeves & Henry Cavill - the new Diana/~WW~, needs to have been born & destined to play Diana, natural colouring, natural beauty & body, all real, nothing fake. fight scenes can be trained, but genuine Diana looks cannot be....saying this.

Lorena Bernal is Diana/~WW~.

Gal Gadot fits both of your 2 requirements. I for one am anxious to see how she does.

I was going to say exactly the same thing.

I thought she was great in BvS and I'm really looking forward to WW.





All for a box of chocolates...

She sucked.

Lousy actress.

Flat chested.

Nothing about her fit that role.

So glad she’s gone.

Alexandra Daddario would have been perfect.

Looks exactly like Diana, including the blue eyes and perfect body.

She also played a Greek demi-goddess in the Percy Jackson films.

She was the top fan choice before Snyder screwed up by miscasting Gadot for some idiotic reason.
