Official Wonder Woman Casting Suggestions [merged-13]

[Dark Knight]

for some reason, i'm starting to think that it will be between Monica Baccarin and Jessica Biel for the role of WW.

[green]

not sure if she's been mentioned ...

but how about Talisa Soto (http://imdb.com/name/nm0000650/)

at 5'10, i'm sure the height shouldn't be that much of a problem ...


She and Bejamin Bratt just had another baby, and I mean literally just had like yesterday. She really doesnt work anymore since having kids, I doubt she'd do it. She's gorgeous though.

[dnno1]

I just heard (from pimpernel) that Jordan Bayne is out of the running because she was too old. Even though she has never admitted her true age publically, I estimate her (Jordan) at about 32. That being the case, then Talisa Soto at 38 is definitely too old for what the producers want.

I actually think she could do it from these shots.

for some reason, i'm starting to think that it will be between Monica Baccarin and Jessica Biel for the role of WW.

While my primary choice would be Morena Baccarin for Wonder Woman, I could live with Biel getting the role.

[Steelsheen]

i remember seeing this chick from How to loose a guy in 10 days:

Shalom Harlow (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0363371/)

she's 5'11. perfect WW height. has that exotic look going for her. can certain tone up in the gym if needs be.

one problem: she's 32 :(

Do you think Winona Ryder could play Wonder Woman?

This is one of the best I've found in a while. I have more but she's semi-nude and young.

[Fused]

Unfortunately Jenn's 10 years too late. She'd be perfect otherwise.
Wynnona. . . ..... good god. . .
Biel. I'd be down with Biel. She *did* just get voted sexiest gal alive by Esquire. Shes smokin hot, rock-hard, has decent acting chops and action experience. I wouldn't say shes the definitative perfect cast, but I'd be satisfied with her.

[LanternFan]

Jessica Biel couldn't act her way out of a wet paper sack. I understand that attractiveness is all about personal preferences, but to me she just looks like every other sad little girl in the industry trying to get famous by showing off her boobies.

Morena Baccarin would be SO much better. Beef her up a little & hand her the tiara. I really think she's the way to go, what with Joss Whedon writing & directing.

[Fused]

Meh.

Jennifer Connelly is in talks to star opposite Leonardo DiCaprio in director Edward Zwick's dramatic thriller The Blood Diamond at Warner Bros. Pictures, says The Hollywood Reporter.

The African adventure is set in Sierra Leone circa 1999, a time when the nation was in the midst of a horrific civil war. DiCaprio plays the role of a smuggler who specializes in the sale of "blood diamonds," also known as "conflict diamonds" -- the precious stones used to finance rebellions, privateers and terrorists.

When the smuggler encounters an indigenous Mende farmer whose young son has disappeared into the RUF's army of child soldiers, the two men's fates become linked.

The story is by Charles Leavitt and C. Gaby Mitchell, with a screenplay by Leavitt and Zwick (The Last Samurai) & Marshall Herskovitz.

The studio is aiming to begin shooting early next year and is eyeing locations in Africa.

If WB wants to bank on Connelly by the 2007 release they better sign her up before the summer next year. Looks like she'll be busy.

i kind of agree with that take of Biel. Another not great actress with a hot bod (Alba is also one) that is using her body and skin to get roles.

Don't worry, it shouldn't be a problem since Connely isn't going to play Wonder Woman anyway.

Not sure how tall Sienna Miller is but she's young and talented with a maturity beyond her years, and she looks good as Brunette. how would you feel with her as WW?

Sienna is one of the hottest chicks in her age range in hollywood, but she's only 5' 6". Wierd for a former model I know.

Kim Smith has been my favorite for a while now. If the production companies that made her movie would quit dragging ass and release the thing we could find out how good an actress she is. If she's as good as necessary, I have no doubts she's the best. Cause physically I think she can't be beaten for the criteria Joss outlined. Plus I read she knows TKD.

[CGHulk]

Eliza Dushku should be Wonder Woman, in my opinion!!!

I didnt know she was only 5'6 and yeah i've been on the Kim bandwagon for a long time, besides I know Sienna can act and the height can be fixed on screen it's not like she's 5'1 ya know? And Yes Kim Smith's movie The 9th passenger NEEDS to be released.

I am a Baccarin supporter, but could see Kim Smith physically in the role, and I wouldn't be devastated if she gained the role. It would be nice to see her in more acting projects to get a feel for her skills though.

[ColbyCo]

After looking at pics of Kim Smith on her website, I'd say she's the embodiment of Diana/Wonder Woman and if I'm reading her bio correctly, she should be about 20 or 21 now which is perfect. Also seeing that she's a model, she's got to be at 5'9". If her acting skills are up to par, I'd say give her a shot!

She's 22, she'll be 23 in March. And yeah, she's 5' 9". The talk of her as WW really kicked into gear when she said in her 2004 Maxim interview that she wants to play Wonder Woman.

Just for the record Sienna Miller is 23 and will be 24 in december

the real question to Kim Smith hasnt changed: can she act?

we're not looking for Academy Award material here, only someone who can hold their own against someone like say, John Malkovich (who'd make a great Faust btw). if she can then we have a winner.

Baccarin all the way! :up:


i still think Biel will be considered, due to her age, athleticism, and looks. Whedon would be silly not to at least consider her. I think it will be between Biel and Morena Baccarin for the role. Thats my educated guess.....

[dpm07]

I agree with you. I think if Biel goes out, she'll definitely be a contender. I think the fact that she's so well-known could work against her, and they may be inclined to give the role to Morena Baccarin if it comes down to that. I think Morena carries herself with enough edge that she can be hard or soft and that's one of the greatest things about Wonder Woman. Baccarrin has a very regal sense of bearing that has been extremely noticeable with Inara and that could work to her benefit.

yeah. it'll basically come down to who has the better screentests and to who Whedon thinks is the better actor for the WW role.

[Red Mask]

Don't forget the producers and such.

[Dark Knight]

Don't forget the producers and such.

of course. Joel Silver is da man!

[batdude]

Assuming it does come down to Biel versus Baccarin, It'll probably be action star ability (Biel) versus resemblance to the character (Baccarin). I really don't think Kim Smith will get it because Whedon requires at least some acting ability. I'd give a slight edge to Morena, because Jessica has already been in Blade, but really I think I'd be O.K with either of them.

yes dude i know. but other than that yet-to-be-released film, is there any other work she's been in that can at least give an idea if she really has the talent to be an actress or is she all "just looks"? dont ger me wrong. if there was a way to transplant Cate Blanchett's talent into that hot bod of hers then castings done; we have our WW. but there isnt much to go on with Kim. on her IMDB profile her ranking on Maxim is all that's noteworthy (not to mention it was mentioned more times than any accomplishment she's had :p).

She's done Van Wilder and CINO

[Steelsheen]

She's done Van Wilder and CINO

its a little hard to remember which chick she was in Van Wilder ;), but hey, i dont mind looking into it again :D

i havent seen CINO for very good reasons. but what the heck, maybe this chick is worth losing my sanity.

[Lobo]

Her role in CINO is very small and that movie IS as bad as you think and she played Casey in Van Wilder. I have a crush on her big time :O

[SolidRoar]

I finally got to see Firefly. (Serenity didn't open here, yet) I saw the first two episodes, and I have to say that I'm beginning to like Morena Baccarin. So I'll say this: if the role must go to a "Whedon girl", she would be my first choice.

I agree. I think she would bring a sense of nobility and regality to Wonder Woman, in the way she did with Inara Serra.

[Secret Weapon]

I'm up for charisma carpenter. i think she wold be perfect.

Actually they seem to have reconciled, and he has said that he WILL give her the oppurtunity to test for the role.

[dpm07]

Actually they seem to have reconciled, and he has said that he WILL give her the oppurtunity to test for the role.

It's possible. I heard the same thing, too.

I think he's giving her an opportunity to test as a courtesy so he's not seen as being biased or discriminative. Realistically, because of the actors union, probably people over the age mark can try out, but the director is set in his ideal of what he wants. Especially if he should happen to maybe give it to Baccarin, one can't go back and say he didn't give others that he's worked for an opportunity.

If Wonder Woman were darker, or Gina Torres were lighter and younger, she'd have a decent shot based on her overall physical look. Not necessarily in the face, but overall. They'd still be getting a Latina, too which would please me, but that's just a personal thing. I do hope the right person whoever it may be, gets it.

[Lobo]

I dont think Charisma is a good enough actress anyway. She's only good at playing the *****, and from what I've heard from people who've met her that's not really an act. If an actress Whedon's already worked with gets the role, Baccarin is by far best suited for Diana. I'd like to see Kim Smith, and Taylor Cole have an oppurtunity to test for the part, also I'd be happy with Biel as I brought her name up long before there was even a rumor about her having the part

I know you've been campaigning hard for Kim Smith here and on the other forum. I wouldn't be upset if she got the role. As you know, I'm a Baccarin supporter. Biel is one that I definitely wouldn't rule out though. She's definitely a stronger candidate now that she received the sexiest woman of the year award from Esquire or GQ or whatever. I could see her playing Diana, and wouldn't cry in my beer over it, that's for sure. I really am not too familiar with Taylor Cole though. She's pretty, but I'm not too familiar with her work.

[Lobo]

Taylor has mainly been in Summerland though she's done commercials and other things as well. She's a pretty good actress, and at 22 and 5'8 and a half I think she's deserving of a screen test. She doesnt have an official site, but her best fan site is www.taylor-cole.com I made friends with the webmaster their and he even put up Kazuya's manip :). I'd be happy wih Baccarin or Biel in the role and they both seem to have a decent shot at it. As for Kim, she seems to be genuinely nice and intelligent when she speaks, so I just hope she tests, if The 9th Passenger is ever released we'll have a decent sized role to judge her acting. There are plenty of actresses I could live with in the role, we'll just have to wait and see who Whedon chooses.

thats what I'm thinking.....the battle for the WW role will be between Biel and Baccarin. No one else....

[Ciella]

I don't know if this is really the thread for this, but there's a small interview at about.com with Joel Silver about Wonder Woman.

http://actionadventure.about.com/od/news/a/102005WW.htm

How is Wonder Woman going? Joss Whedon is writing. He’s loving what he’s doing. He’s been kind of back and forth on Serenity and touring and he was just getting back from Australia last week, but he’s focused and he’s happy. He’s got a great take on it and I believe we can make a great movie out of it.

How will Wonder Woman be different from the recent spate of Superhero movies? Joss is good. It’s all about the writing. If Joss can figure out a way to make this girl fresh, she is part of the original core of D.C. superheroes. It was Batman, Superman and her. That was it. They make fun of Aquaman on Entourage, but it was the three of them. What I like about it is she’s never been reinvented. Batman was reinvented. The TV, they made the movie and Superman, this and that. Wonder Woman exists only as a comic book and as a little cheesy TV show from the ‘70s. That’s really all it was. It never went past that which I like. If Joss can figure out a way to do it, I can be great.

How hard will casting Wonder Woman be? She’s young. She’s young in the script. So maybe we’ll have never met her before. Maybe we will. We have to see the script and we’ll see what Joss feels. I’m behind him.

With Serenity not finding as big an audience as hoped, do you worry about Joss’s reach? Look, I don't know. He was so passionate. It was always dubious to take a failed TV series and try to make a success out of that. He was just so passionate about it, he wanted to do it and Universal stood by him. I think it did as best as could be hoped. It was an interesting movie, it didn’t cost a lot, he just worked his ass off to make it great and I’m not deterred by it. I’ll help him make a great movie out of Wonder Woman.

So you’re not worried he’s too highbrow for the masses? No, no.

[haephestus]

Hmmmmmm.

Never knew the following about Alexa Davalos aka Gwen Raiden (on Angel) and a Whedonette:

Height:

5' 8" (1.73 m).

Trivia:

Former model.

She is the daughter of actress Elyssa Davalos.

Although born in France she is of Greek descent.

Speaks fluent Greek and French.

Cheers,

Alexa Davalos kicked ass in "Chronicles of Riddick". Her extra scene in the Director's Cut was cool.

She's definitely got the physicality down, IMO and the connections. I could see it happening. She's an unknown. I wouldn't be disappointed.

I agree with Dark Knight, though. I believe it will probably be between Biel and Baccarin. Unless something happens we are not aware of, I really believe it will be someone in the age bracket that's been mentioned here on the boards. Someone who falls into the approximate age, height, and talent range.

[BT18]

Not only did Joss say it wouldn't be someone from the Buffyverse, which Alexa is, I really don't think it should be somone who looks really beautiful only a fraction of the time, usually at the right angle and dolled up, which I think she only does.

I wouldn't entirely rule someone out of the Buffyverse (Fireflyverse included). He probably won't make special concessions, but I think that Baccarin has a legitimate shot. Also, he said it wouldn't be a special film for his buddies, but I take that with a grain of salt. He can't come out and say he's going to have his friends in the film, or it shows a bias.

We'll have to wait and see, but I think people like Morena Baccarin have a definitely better shot than anyone suggesting "Tiffani Amber Theisen" or "Eva Longoria". I'm not saying you did, but I've seen some people voice these suggestions, and they aren't too likely or well thought out.

Ivona Lavata (or Ivona Hlavata)- i'm not sure who she is - she might not even be an actress ... or speak english for that matter ... but man oh man - does she ever look like Wonder Woman.

She's prudy...I like her. Probably cause she got Kreuk's looks

If she looks like Kreuk, has the body of Durance and the acting skills of Theron or Jolie...........Cast her! :eek:

[Red Mask]

Theron's acting skills, please. Not Jolie's.

[dpm07]

Theron's acting skills, please. Not Jolie's.

They are both good actresses. If you don't care for them it's a personal thing, and that's cool. However, I think they both have established themselves as solid actresses in the field of entertainment.

[Red Mask]

It is a personal thing. What else would it be, brainy?

[rscal]

I think Jennifer Connelly would be a great choice for the part. I also like Brittany Murphy. Noone has mentioned her but I can really see her in the part. What do you think?
jennifer needs to add some more weight. if she had the body she had in the rocketeer right now she is too slender

[rscal]

OK!!! Now, I know that I'm going to get in trouble for this, but here's someone who has never been mentioned for the role of WW:

http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Events/1719/MichelleRo_Vespa_390772_400.jpg

MICHELLE RODRIGUEZ

Now, most of the roles that she plays are tough-chick roles, but she is beautiful in her own way, and she could provide a different look for Wonder Woman, (like Kevin Sorbo did for Hercules)!!!
michelle rodriguez eeeww. u like mustaches on women? and she is way too short

[dpm07]

Jennifer Connelly is too old. She's 35 already. She's within 5 years of middle age and 40.

Brittany Murphy is only 5'2. She would also make a better Harley Quinn than Wonder Woman.

[Steelsheen]

Theron's acting skills, please. Not Jolie's.
Theron's talented, but Jolie can act circles around her.

problem with Jolie's current acting career (since she seems to have a political one now too ;)) is the "leading lady" syndrome-- she's stuck doing one type of character that has little to do with flexing her acting muscles and more to do with just her looks and her body.

Yeah ... she's way too sick looking. To thin and it might be safe to say - no acting skills.:down

[Secret Weapon]

all the girls are beatiful no ? there. i like the fact of ali landry or maybe even angilina jolie (sp?) they both can be action stars an lord knows that they can fill out the outfit.

[MyDogShotJFK]

Is Eliza Dushu being considered? Or is that just us internet people's wishful thinking?

Do we even know if anyone (in this poll) is being considered - officailly?

at this point in time, all names on the poll is just wishful thinking.

Dushku, like other actresses before her, are just expressing their interest. it doesnt mean that Whedon is considering any of them.

thin does not equal "sick". Unless you're signifigantly underweight and/or missing vital nutrients, it's always healthier to not have excess calories and excess body fat percentage.

People need to stop acting like the whole "heroin chic" thing didn't end 15 years ago. Most models are way healthier than the average population, particularly the average American population. Of course it's the number one priority of every 3rd person on the internet to make a tired, derivate complaint about famous models/actresses/people who's job it is to be hot being "too skinny".

[aprillv68]

According to IMDB.com, CZJ is 5'8, so that may be tall enough.sorry my pick would be anyone but her, she gets enough starring roles in my opinion, and yes she does indeed look like her, i must admit

[aprillv68]

I don't know who should do it. From the Pole I picked Catherine Zeta-Jones just because she looks the most like the character and she can act. But, I don't know how tall she is. Whoever they pick needs to be TALL, and incredibly HOT! And please, whatever happens, don't let them pick Lucy Lawless or Chyna. The thought sickens me.She is beautiful & very much looks like her of anyone else, but she's not my pick....sorry:down

I'll be kind and simply say that Ali Landry is too old.

[Red Mask]

Theron's talented, but Jolie can act circles around her.

problem with Jolie's current acting career (since she seems to have a political one now too ;)) is the "leading lady" syndrome-- she's stuck doing one type of character that has little to do with flexing her acting muscles and more to do with just her looks and her body.

Since we're talking about Jolie here, what do think about her desire to adopt more kids? I don't know if Brad Pitt wants to play daddy to so many kids now.

[dpm07]

Since we're talking about Jolie here, what do think about her desire to adopt more kids? I don't know if Brad Pitt wants to play daddy to so many kids now.

I think Angelina Jolie is a rare breed. talented, highly intelligent, and very willing to contribute and help in the world we live. She has really found her niche in the world, and I admire her willingness to help. She is a true example of a real life Wonder Woman. I can understand why Brad Pitt would want to be with her. Not to mention after saying all these things, she's arguably the best looking actress in Hollywood (maybe on the planet).

I am proud of her. I am proud of her efforts to want to help. You know, she is in the stages of planning to build a Pediatric AIDS Center in Ethiopia right now. This is something not widely publicized. She has a great career, and is a great human being. I think Brad Pitt could do a lot worse than end up with Angelina Jolie.

[Red Mask]

She is indeed. I look forward to seeing her humanitarian work. Her role as a UN ambassador has already surpassed her image as an actress.

[dpm07]

Exactly!

The great thing is that if one has listened to her interviews regarding her work in this non-profit field, you can see that it is genuine, and she's not just doing it because the cameras are on her. She is doing it because she really cares.

Personally, if she were given the role of Wonder Woman, it would be a dream come true for me. I've been campaigning for Morena Baccarin because she's in the same age bracket, and also because she's got a good shot. However, that said, Angelina Jolie is a Wonder Woman on-screen and more importantly off-screen by the work she does in the world.

personally i applaud her for adopting kids (although admitedly at the back of my mind i'm a little curious about her ability to breed). if she wants to adopt kids of different races and creed from every nation on the planet why the heck not? :D. i never cared much for Pitt (other than the fact that he sure could pass for Robert Redford's son ;)) but hey if that guy has new found smarts by hooking up with Jolie then good for him. he certainly has a better lady now, versus that girl-next-door hack called Aniston.

[BT18]

I'll be kind and simply say that Ali Landry is too old.

Too old. Too fake. And to unrespectable a kind of fame in terms of stigma. For all I know she's a great actress. But she'll always be the chick who did the split catching the Doritos in her mouth during the superbowl. Sort of a tacky way kind of way of getting famous. Plus additional minor fame from breaking up with AC Slater after he cheated on her right before their wedding. I think, something like that happened.

Aniston was so caught up with herself. Pitt stated time and time again....that he wanted kids, but the self centered Aniston didn't want kids to focus on her acting career?? Her loss and Pitts gain when it comes to him with Angelina. The differences between Jolie and Aniston are astounding.

Brad Pitt himself said in an interview that her not wanting to have a baby wasn't even the reason they split. Maybe if you get your head out of Angelina Jolie's butt and stop worshiping her and maybe you'll see what's right in front of you. During and After Brad Pitt filmed Mr. and Mrs. Smith Brad just turned himself off to Jennifer.

Does anybody know if Whedon's writing in Steve Trevor?

You just don't know Joss if you really entertain that possibility. Or the kind of roles an A plus lister takes. The role of Steve Trevor if used will likely be supporting of a lead actress that at most will be a non "prestigious" B-lister.

[Red Mask]

You don't think Brad Pitt can play a supporting role?

[Kane]

Brad Pitt would be great as Steve Trevor. Brads in his 40s now and has the age and acting range to make Trevor work.

Man, I wish the backdrop for this movie would be WW2, itd be epic, a truely timeless tale.

there must've been a reason (whether its good or not is not for us to decide). but looking at what a stellar character Jolie is, i honestly couldnt blame Pitt for dumping Aniston. you know if there is really something about a wife that a husband really loves he would never leave her, no matter how beautiful or how generous the other woman really is.

Hmm. Yeah. I think he's had enough of 'Greek' women and skirts. ;)

[Kane]

I think he would hes done supporting roles all the time. My favorite of his movies is Fight Club, and Ed Norton was basically the main character there.

Steve Trevor would basically be the co-star of the movie anyways. If this does take place during WW2, I wana see Easy Company and the Blackhawks too.

Thatd be awesome!

I agree.

When all is said and done, Brad Pitt is in a better place in life by leaving Jennifer Aniston, and being with Angelina Jolie. Angelina Jolie is doing something worthwhile with her life and impacting the world around her. Aniston is really not making any great impact which will be felt in life for generations to come.

Brad Pitt himself has said that he really appreciates Angelina Jolie for living her life for a purpose, and not just to be a movie star. Brad's also said that Angelina has opened his mind up to the world, and she is the most selfless person he has ever met. Angelina Jolie has introduced him to a world of culture that he hadn't seen before, and this is something to be admired in Angelina Jolie. She is a beautiful lady, a fine actress, and a great humanitarian making a difference in the world around her. Angelina Jolie is at peace with herself, and knows who she is, and what her purpose in life is. Not many people can truly make that claim. This is evidenced in the way Angelina Jolie lives her life. She's honest with herself.

The world is a better place because of people like Angelina Jolie.

Like Red Mask said, we're not trying to make her look like a saint, but you have to give someone their props who is doing something positive in the world not because they have to, but because they want to.

Angelina Jolie is a real-life Wonder Woman. That's an ideal that is hard to live up to, but she is living proof there is good in the world and in Hollywood.

[Red Mask]

For those who wished for Monica Bellucci, I read this at IMDB.com:

Bellucci Shuns Youth-Obsessed Hollywood
Italian beauty Monica Bellucci has no intention of moving to Hollywood to further her acting career, because she hates the way women are treated by the American film industry. The Passion Of The Christ actress refuses to conform to the obsession with youth in Los Angeles, and echoes the complaints of many mature US actresses who feel they are shunned by producers once they pass the age of 40. The 36-year-old says, "I could never live there. They are obsessed with youth and beauty even more than us. There is this thing in America where actresses reach 40 and go mad. The film industry wants all these young people. They also like a different sort of woman (to me). I will never be skinny. I also had a child a year ago, and I have been lazy. I love to eat. Who cares? I am natural."

What a shame. Yet, for many years now, American films haven't used European actresses very well. :O

But on the good side, Monica Bellucci has replaced Sophie Marceau in the lead role for the upcoming "Concile de Pierre". Catherine Deneuve will also star in the movie, and it's based on the novel by the same author as "The Crimson Rivers!" Now that's cool!

it takes two to tango. It was all on Pitt.

Crap happens.....especially in pretentious "Hollywood"

Jolie isnt a saint. she has her demons. she has admited that much.

Aniston is no angel either. or even girl next door. that has always been an act.

Aniston always reminds me of one of those cheerleaders/ student-council presidents who is so sweet one minute then stabs you on the back in the next.

Friends is a funny show, but i mean c'mon really. the only decent person on that cast is Lisa Kudrow.

I agree. Kudrow is the only one with talent.

The good thing about Angelina Jolie is she seems to be comfortable in her own skin, and has come to terms with her life. She seems to be content.

Aniston just seems to be fake to me. Actually, most of the Friends cast seems that way to me for some reason.

How about Cobie Smulders from "How I Met Your Mother"

[Red Mask]

I haven't seen much of her work. Whatever parts I have seen she doesn't speak much. Why do you suggest her?

[Germanborn]

Just a thought I had, she's young, not really well-known for anything -yet-, and she kinda has the look, anybody else have any thoughts.

[Red Mask]

She was voted "Most Respected" in high school. Could that translate into Amazon Princess?

[Germanborn]

She is better than some of the other suggestions I have heard,and I see someone at IMDB already suggested it there so I guess I'm not alone. I would personally not like to see a big star in the part, I was always against the fixation some people had with Sandra Bullock as WW.

i didnt say WHOLE persona, neither did i claim to know her personally. i simply stated how she reminded me of some folks of similar personalities, couple the fact that these people live in HOLLYWOOD (its not called ACTING central for nothing) would definitely give you some idea of how these people are in real life-- "birds of the same feather flock together" ever heard of that? i dont read tabloids and rumours, but who hasnt heard of the break-up, hell it made the friggin morning and nightly news! besides what you said was "they had an affair and that was that", what suddenly you're the Pitts' marital counselor? how would you know that was that either? do you actually know them, because hey if you do i'll shut up now. but if you dont, you can take a good doze of your advice too.

I agree with Steelsheen. You really need to practice what you preach. Brad Pitt is happy with Angelina Jolie, and that's all that matters. They are good for each other, and apparently the fact he went to Angelina is because he saw something in her he liked, and/or didn't see something in Jennifer Aniston. Aniston seems to be happy with Vince Vaughn, so hey, everyone is good. You shouldn't slam on Angelina Jolie for being a class act off the screen and doing good deeds. That's not cool. Brad Pitt is probably a little more aware of the plight of others suffering in the world, so it brings someone else who is willing to help.

The way I see it, all is well that ends well.

I actually love love love Angelina Jolie I like her movies Tomb Raider 1, 2, Mr & Mrs. Smith, Life or something like it, Taking Lives, and Gone in Sixty seconds, but this forum makes me hate her. You need to get it straight nowhere did I slam Angelina all I said was there are a lot of Angelina worshipers here. They're so gung ho about Angelina that they fail so see what's happening to the other person. If this whole situation was turned around and it was Brad Pitt who left Angelina for Jennifer she would be trashed like there's no tommorow.

i didnt say WHOLE persona, neither did i claim to know her personally

"Aniston is no angel either. or even girl next door. that has always been an act."

Aniston was so caught up with herself. Pitt stated time and time again....that he wanted kids, but the self centered Aniston didn't want kids to focus on her acting career?? Her loss and Pitts gain when it comes to him with Angelina. The differences between Jolie and Aniston are astounding.
(This is one of the most ignorant, biased and oblivious post I've ever read.)

In a GQ interview Brad still called called his marriage to Jennifer "A Total Sucess " In the magazine Pitt says the end of the marriage isn’t to be blamed on one thing. “It’s so complex and multifaceted.”
To that end, Pitt calls the rumors that his marriage ended because he wanted kids and Aniston didn’t “B.S.’’


After this I'm just going to stop defending Aniston cause its a lost cause, people here will always be in Angelina's side. My whole point was to make people stop bashing Aniston. She is a victim. It's sad that people have diluted themselves enough that just because Angelina does many humanitarian things that ultimately she is a better person than Jennifer thus more deserving of Brad Pitt. A pity this is the way the cookie crumbles.

okay, back on topic...I havent read every single post in this thread, but I have read most of them, has anyone considered Claire Forlani for WW or maybe another character for the movie. She has some of the WW looks needed for the part (maybe not like Connelly, but close).
any thoughts on this?

what... no Girl Interupted? no Gia? with the list of movies you have there i'm wondering exactly what makes you "love, love love" Angelina Jolie. the lady is more than a pretty face and nice racks-- she can actually ACT. your list of films made her popular with the movie crowd, but they also crucified her to the acting career rut she's in now.

but this forum makes me hate her. You need to get it straight nowhere did I slam Angelina all I said was there are a lot of Angelina worshipers here.

wrong. if Jolie was ditched for someone else (i distinctly remember she was-- remember Billy Bob Thornton?) you will wonder what is it about her that made the other guy leave-- and who he left her for. rumours circulated that she was a certified crazy biotch that's why Thornton left her. history is the best judge of that. look who she is and where she is now. and Mr Thornton? i couldnt care less.

wow you went through all that to prove your point. well i applaud you. bravo. i never really bother with GQ other than seeing who's on the cover because in my book, its a glorified tabloid with slicker pages. i dont know about what Pitt is saying other than those soundbytes in the evening news. and you know why? because i dont read or watch the gossip news.

this whole Angelina talk started because we only expressed why we thought she would make a good WW, we defined her qualities and saw that many of those matches a real life person-- Angelina Jolie. that's what this topic is about right? who we want to be WW and why we think she deserves to be considered? now if that got off topic well heck, boohoo, this is a MB and threads always get hijacked at one point or another, the important thing is to steer it back on topic. and that's where i'm gonna leave this mess.

yeah. seems like unless you were born after 1980 you dont stand a chance :(

[DavidTyler]

one of the above but there are a few good choises up there.
The actress to portrait WW has to be tall (she is a goddess), very attractive (she is a goddess) and someone that can kick anyones butt (she is a god...you get the picture) and has to be in great shape.
I have an actress that i would love to see in that suit...
She´s a great actress (she won an oscar), very pretty and very .....sexy.
She´s blond but you can work on that...
She´s in a moment of her´s carrer that she can´t refuse that part and i don´t know why everyone forgets that she exist...and i´m not talking of WW only
WW is MIRA SORVINO
Think about it...

http://us.imdb.com/EGallery?source=granitz&group=1461&photo=MiraSorvin_Grani_498512_400.jpg&path=pgallery&path_key=Sorvino,+Mira

While I think Mira is a doll but she is only 5'9" and - let me whisper this - She's NOT a natural blonde. She bleached her hair for the role of Marilyn Monroe and never went back to her natural brunette.

I wouldn't cast her as Wonder Woman but I'd definitely consider her for Lois.

mary elizabeth winstead.

she work with lynda carter(wonder woman) on sky high.

maybe lynda carter will recommend her.
ah yes! Gwen :)

i thought she was really pretty. definitely has potentials :up:

speaking of Sky High, what about the girl who played Layla? i think the actress' name is Danielle Panabaker. i know she's a redhead but hey, they could try dyeing her hair dark. thing is her height is listed as 5'6.

Aniston not wanting to have kids was just one of the many problems they were having. Stop saying Aniston is a victim.....she isn't.....marriages end.....especially in Hollywood...it takes two tango and two to fight and breakup. Aniston has issues of her own....under her own admittance....(she can't make up with her mother from this day?) Aniston is caught up in her FRIENDS universe.....and sadly to say to Jen.....life isn't the same as a TV show.

Sound to me like you need to get off these boards if you have any issue about people carrying on a conversation with regard to WW or people who we feel epitomizes WW.

This thread is about WW, and people are talking about WW. They just took a moment to reflect on other things. I strongly suggest you get a grip on yourself before you post. With 8 posts, you're not in too much of a position to tell people what to do, or make rash suggestions. Just ride things out. They will rectify themselves. They generally do.

Sophia Vergara

I think she's beautiful, talented, and she has the physical height, etc. You wouldn't hear me complain if she received the role. However, I wouldn't complain about Kate Beckinsale or Angelina Jolie either. Unfortunately, they are all too old.

This is why I am supporting Morena Baccarin for Wonder Woman. She is talented, meets the physical requirements, has the Whedon connections, and is in the age bracket which they are looking for.

[spacecomet]

I think Monica Bellucci could be good in Wonder Woman. Even if she is not Wonder Woman herself, I think she could have a part somewhere in the movie to add. I think she would bring a certain star power even as a supporting cast. What do you think? Of course also I think Lynda Carter should have something to do with the movie. After all she put Wonder Woman on the map. Even though Kathy Lee Crosby was the first Wonder Woman. I think that might have been a pilot or one episode.

[Dr. Fate]

Monica Bellucci would be much better as Wonder Woman than any of the underfed, anorexic waifs they're most likely looking at right now.

[gregtestagent]

She's in her late thirties- early forties right?

[WallCrawl]

She's 37.

[ClarkLuther55]

No, she's 41. She was born in 1964.

The majority of sites seem list her birthdate as 1968.

[dpm07]

I wouldn't be surprised if she changed the date. I've seen other actresses (Sandra Bullock) and actors (Brendan Fraser) do the same thing as well as others.

She looks closer to the 40+ range than she does the mid to late 30's, IMO.

[terry78]

It's been repeated over and over and over, but I never really gave it much thought. I watched The Hulk last night on USA, and the last shot of Jennifer Connolly before it fades into the South American jungle where she's just looking into space....EXACTLY like Diana. I mean she looks just like the comic versions. Watch Hulk again and check that final scene.

[Mr Sensitive]

Connelly is not the only name possible, of course, but she should be seriously considered.

It isn't everyday that you can find such a great and beautiful actress who look so much like the role in question.

[dpm07]

Jennifer Connelly is very attractive and 10 years ago, I'd have said she would be perfect. However, she's getting up there in age at 35, and approaching the middle age mark of 40.

They are looking to cast someone in their mid-20's, and maybe late 20's at the most, but I don't see them going over the 30 mark because of the fact that they want to probably look at a potential trilogy and it's hard to say how long it would take to make. There's a lot of attractive 30's actresses, but they are looking to cast someone in their 20's.

But that's the point, isn't it?

That's the industry's paradox: when you have the two best choices they could dream of (namely Monica Bellucci and Jennifer Connelly), they think the silly teens won't be pleased to watch a woman in the role of the woman.

"Naah, they won't like it. It has to be someone younger". Wonder Girl.

And more: they are convinced that they have to make a series of it. So, you can't have the Wonder Woman's movie. It has to be three in the least.

And voilà how we come to the weak argument of their age, like if they were old.

Jennifer Connelly wasn't perfect for the role ten years ago, she was still struggling against her earlier teen career and against herself. Now she is truly ready, both as an actress and as a woman.

Bellucci, as well.

Bellucci, as well.

I'm not saying you don't make credible points. You do. However, it is a young person's industry, and the powers that be have decreed that it should be a younger Wonder Woman.

Therefore, we have to accept this, and drop the idealized notion of having a 30's+ actress performing the role of Wonder Woman, and we should start to look at the potential candidates who fall into the vision of the ones that make the decision.

A dream choice to me would be Angelina Jolie. However, she falls outside the age bracket that is being considered, therefore I am looking at an age bracket and actress candidates in that bracke that are more appropriate.

I think Connelly could have done the role much more effective 10 years ago than today. She's still attractive, but is starting to slip with regard to appearance. Bellucci is beautiful as well, and I'd rather see her as Hippolyta than as Wonder Woman. I think her age would make her a good Hippolyta.

Still, you are entitled to your opinion. If you feel these actresses should be up for the role, than you can continue to believe this. However, it is unlikely that either candidate will be a likely option for the film.

[The Chairman]

These choices have probably been mentioned before, but I'm going with Kate Beckinsale or Eva Longoria.
http://fofr.trivialbeing.net/images/29-03-2005-katebeckinsalebandwc.jpg
http://www.rolegames.it/specials/Eva%20longoria%201074x768.jpg

[dpm07]

Kate and Eva are both beautiful.

However, both are above the age requirement, and Eva is only 5'2. She's really too petite to be considered for the role.

I wouldn't be upset if Kate Beckinsale received the role, but she's above the age category. I could see her doing a superhero role, however. Maybe Silver Sable, or The Black Widow. Maybe someone else. Kate Beckinsale definitely rocks however on many levels, and is also on my personal Top 10 list of women.

Thanks for your feedback. I see what you mean. As far as age goes, the way I see it, I don't care about how old the person is as long as they look the part. To me, Eva (though as you say she is rather short) and Kate look very much the part. Plus, they're 31, which I think is really just the right age. Plus, I think both women could pass for the 20-27 age range they're apparently shooting for.

As for the choices mentioned, I like Jennifer Connelly. She is by far the most Wonder Woman of the bunch. And frankly, I'm getting sick of Angelina Jolie. She's been mentioned for every superhero/action movie female lead in the world, and it's really tiresome.

The thing about Hollywood is they always look at who they can cater to with regard to demographic, and also longevity toward sequels. An aging Wonder Woman would be hard to explain because she doesn't age like most people.

Personally, I think Angelina Jolie would rock as Wonder Woman (along with Kate). The age factor comes into play for both of them, however. Jennifer Connelly would have been good 10 years ago, but she's starting to age, and many pictures out there on the Internet are not reflective of what she looks like currently.

There are a lot of actresses who could probably pass for the 20-27 mark. Angelina Jolie and Kate Beckinsale could do it. However, it comes back to Hollywood. Personally, I feel that James Caviezel would have made an awesome Superman, but Singer wanted a young Superman. Same with Whedon with regard to Wonder Woman.

While we may not like it, it is not likely to change. All we can do is work with what is out there and what falls into the age bracket that the Director and Hollywood are looking for.

I think there are some decent choices out there currently. Whoever is picked is not going to be a 100% unanimous choice. There will always be some hesitancy to accept. I could personally accept Morena Baccarin, Kim Smith, Nadia Bjorlin, or even Jessica Biel. They fall into the age bracket, and could give the role respectability and are good for a trilogy if necessary. There are probably others out there as well. We'll just have to see.

[porotoparker]

It doesn´t matter the age factor when we pick our Wonder Woman´s candidates.
By the time Whedon has finished the writing of his script, they all will be in her eighties.

I know that. They should hire me.

Agreed that Angelina Jolie would be great as WW, and that's why I think there is no need to obey what the industry has vaguely said, dpm07.

See, if people ignore what they said and propose what should be, according to reasonable choice and thougths, that could, in the long run, be taken into consideration.

It was the huge amount of fair criticism that got them to do Batman Begins, and not another übercrap just for the sake of money.

Hollywood and their stupid demographics are ruining many movies that could have been great. We don't need to be their mouthpiece.

And Wonder Woman is not cute? I wouldn't have put it that way. Morena Baccarin has bags under her eyes and cheeks that bulge out as if she had walnuts in her mouth. Furthermore, she doesn't even look like the Wonder Woman in Alex Ross's "Wonder Woman: Spirit of Truth" cover. In my opinion Amanda Tosch is a better example of that portrait.

I think if Morena gets the role, we'll see a major transformation. As it is right now, she looks like she's lost a lot of that cheek excess. If you see recent interviews or have attended any parties she's been at, then it's noticeable.

If she gets the role, I have faith in Whedon, and her to bring a great performance and presentation of Wonder Woman.

Maybe.

She's not a monument: she's pretty, sure, but is not Wonder Woman-ish.

[Steelsheen]

my point exactly. Cleopatra is legendary in her own right, but she's no Wonder Woman. that's exactly what i meant that Baccarin doesnt have the presence that is required of WW. but i'm not writing her off, i know she's very pretty and talented, and can hold her own onscreen, its just that she's not a good fit for the Amazon Princess.

i'm gonna go out on a limb again here, but if i would have Morrena play any other DC character, i would either have her play Lois Lane or Selina Kyle/Catwoman.

[zanos]

I'm really not exactly sure what the fascination is with Monica Belluci. Don't ppl want a Wonder Wonder that speaks english and isn't 40 or do you want to cast her because you're hoping for a rape scene in the film?

Well put :)

IMO Morena's best comic book role would've been Elektra.

As for WW, I'm still hoping that Taylor or Kim gets the part.

yeah! exactly :)

We've seen Charlise Theron as a brunette in Aeon Flux. How about her as Wonder Woman?

[CGHulk]

Wendon will pick a white girl, not a Latina or an Italian, she'll be white bread, that's what I just get from him!

[Red Mask]

So she'll look like Northwest European?

she was also one of my hopefulls long before she was Aeon Flux.

[Nightwing]

Wizard magazine says actress PAz Vega is in the mix to play WW.

[Bullseye]

Morena Baccarin for Wonder Woman.

[Nightwing]

Morena Baccarin for Wonder Woman.

She has the look and is young and beautiful.Not to mention how she worked with Whedon in Serenity which she was awesome in.

:up:

[Mr Sensitive]

Baccarin is too sweetie.

Vega is a much better choice.

[Nightwing]

Vega looks the part alot doesnt she?

[Bullseye]

I think Vega does have the look of Wonder Woman.

My top two for Wonder Woman would have to be Baccarin and Vega.

Yeah same here for sure. :up:

Though i hope Vega gets cast in the end.

[Steelsheen]

how tall is Vega?

[dnno1]

how tall is Vega?

IMDB lists her at 5'8".

What issue of Wizard was Paz mentioned in? Was it 171?

[Steelsheen]

she's...... ok.

The chick from Spanglish?

[dpm07]

I'm not really into Romantic Comedies, so I haven't seen Spanglish. However, this Paz Vega looks good. She's like a hotter version of Penelope Cruz.

I'm still sticking to Baccarin though. Unless by some divine miracle, Angelina or Kate would happen to get it.

[Steelsheen]

i'm throwing in Mila Jovovich into the mix again.

i know she's scrawny now. blame that on hollywood. but god knows if she starts eating right again and toning up she'd be a really good WW.

although..... she's 30.

[Lobo]

There's that part of me that still wants Biel to get it, and I brought her upi long before there was even a rumor of her :o

[tamron]

I definitely think Paz Vega has the right look. I've never seen her act though. Is she good?

Here's a really good image of her for SHH's resident manip gods to play around with:

^She looks like Wonder Woman to me.

She'd be such a great choice.

[Bullseye]

Here are my choices for Wonder Woman. Morena Baccarin, Monica Belluci, Paz Vega and Eliza Dushku. Either one of those four would be a solid choice for Wonder Woman.

[batdude]

Paz Vega might work. If she's tall enough. She worked with Adam Sandler, so she's got talent. I still say Dushku should be Cheetah.
