    Wonder Woman

    Character » Wonder Woman appears in 8807 issues.

    The Amazon princess, blessed with god-like super abilities, Wonder Woman is one of Earth's most powerful defenders of peace, justice, and equality and a member of the Justice League. She is considered an archetype for many heroines outside of comic book. Her initial origin depicted her as a clay baby brought to life by patron goddess Aphrodite, but in recent years she has been depicted as the daughter of Zeus and Amazon queen Hippolyta.

    Who would you have cast as Wonder Woman?

    I know a lot of people aren't fans of Gal Gadot, so who do you think should be her?

    Do you insist on women who could replace her in the present or we can choose anybody with referring to their prime?

    These all depend on how well they could do a European style accent and if they could pull off brown hair.

    Rebecca Hall, although now I´d prefer her as Hippolyta, as she´s a bit older.

    Can someone explain to me why she was such a popular casting choice?

    Sure, we don't really know if Gal is a bad actress, but everyone knows for sure Megan Fox is a terrible actress. Has anyone else seen the Jonah Hex movie? They could have put a cardboard cutout in Megan's place and it would have done a better job emoting.

    Is it just because she is hot? Because hot girls are a dime a dozen in Hollywood.

    Indira Varma (Game of Thrones, Rome) she might be to old for the role now, but ten years ago I think she would have killed it..........

    Because fan casting typically follows only 1 criterion, that it must be the hottest blue eyed brunette in Hollywood.

    Boy, I agree so much; Shannon Doherty would work good as Zatanna as well. She is such a doll. I'd love her to act my Wonder Woman story.

    Come on. I don´t like Gal as a choice necessarily or atleast I have a healthy skeptisim, but nobody would be worse to play ww than Megan Fox. That is an awful, awful choice.

    @theblondegod - No she didn´t even get to test. I honestly think if she has the acting chops she would make ww come to life but in a very different way to Lynda Carter.

    To be fair, I still am holding out a little hope for Gal. I think if she´s even half good as an actress, because of the accent, she could do quite well. It´s just the interviews I´ve heard of her talking about it, the fact that Zack Snyder is involved and then obviously physically I don´t find her quite right for ww. Not just in terms of her size, which she can do something about, but rather her actual look. But who knows. we´ll see.

    Gina Carano would be the best contender if she had better acting skills.

    It wouldn't take much to get better than Gal Gadot it both looks and acting.

    She's an attractive woman no doubt but just being attractive doesn't mean you share the right look.

    Google says Yvonne and Rebecca were both born in 1982. And Hall's only 2 months older. That's a big age difference there..

    I don't know, if people want a blue eyed brunette who can't act, why not chose Adriana Lima? :). She's 5'10, has blue eyes and dark hair and I'm pretty sure she has like one or two cameo appearances in tv series, but they were probably as herself and thus don't really require that much skill to be yourself. :p.

    As for my pick, what about a younger Bridget Moynahan or Bridget Regan? Theron could be Hippolyta.
