As beautiful as Bellucci is (And she is beautiful), I really don't see WB going with a choice her age. I'm not so sure about Connelly and for the same reasons. This is not to say I wouldn't mind seeing either as WW, although there is nothing I have seen Bellucci do which which leads me to believe she has the athleticism for the part. However, if DC/WB are going to go the younger route as has been evidenced with Superman, than I think they could probably find an ideal candidate in Tsianina Joelson. Granted, she is 29 years old, but still a little younger than the aforementioned Jennifer Connelly or Monica Bellucci.

Age will be a factor. It's cruel and heartless to say this, but it is a reality and an even more pronounced reality with female actresses. This is even more evident if they are interested in a franchise which almost guarantees a 2 - 3 picture deal if the first is successful. Remember, the ideal choice of Connelly will already be approximately 35 or 36 by the time the filming starts. Add the time needed to make a sequel or sequels, and you're looking at a Wonder Woman who is near 40. Monica Bellucci is already 40, so that would be even older yet. I'm not trying to rain on anyone's parade. A few years ago, I would have chosen these 2 more than likely, but in today's world, it's less likely or probable that Whedon will go this route.

[Hunter Rider]

well i think they should cast who they think is right for the part regardless of age,whether it's belluci or not,if they go young my vote is morena baccarin

Monica Bellucci is NOT 40. IMDB is wrong. It has been said lots of times by various people here that her actual site gives her age as 36. 36 is also the age cited in magazine articles and such. Besides which, the point is she doesn't LOOK too old for the part regardless of her actual age. Hollywood CONSISTENTLY casts actresses as characters younger than their actual age. She could easily bang out a trilogy before she hits 40, as could Connelly.

See my post in the other thread.

As for Bellucci's athleticism... unfortunately her action roles are all in foreign movies, but if you check out a few of those you will see she is up to the part. And actresses are trained pretty rigorously before this kinda role anyways. If you saw Carrie-Ann Moss pre-Matrix for instance you wouldn't have thought she could be an action heroine.

[Hunter Rider]

excellent points pimpernell,i also have read belluci's age as 36

Ok, I'll take your word for it regarding her age. I'm a little skeptical, as it's not unlike a lot of actresses to age backwards. Sandra Bullock did that for a long time. However, if you say she's 36, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. Same with her athletic ability. The only thing I have ever heard is that she doesn't like physical fitness as she hates to sweat. I did read that a while back in an interview somewhere. As for putting out a trilogy before she's 40, yes she COULD. However, the mechanics of Hollywood generally don't follow this plan. Films get tied up, and take forever to be made. It is possible, but too often it doesn't work that way. Even if she is 36, that's still a little older than someone in their 20's. I guess I'm just playing Devil's Advocate. Believe me, if she got the part, I wouldn't complain that's for sure. I'm just trying to be realistic at the way Hollywood generally approaches action films and female stars in that area.

[IT is Batgirl]

I guess you guys can judge Tsianina's acting when Xena season 6 comes out on dvd soon.

[pimpernel]

I've seen her Batgirl. Seen her in Xena and a couple of films. She is competent but not very great. Like i said i'm not dead against her but i AM dead against everyone hailing based purely on the evidence around so far. She needs a meatier role or something before people can even begin to say if she is any good or not.

Exactly. Fanboys are sometimes the most shallow casting directors in the world, some of them are the first to sacrifice talent in the name of something purely visual. If they had seen Belucci or Connelly making a bad girl face and wearing a warrior Amazon-like suit, they´d be all over them by now.

[SolidRoar]

I think you're being too harsh. :p We're merely suggesting that they let her audition for the role. None of us is a casting director, so all we can do is suggest. I think both Connelly and Bellucci are two of the hottest that Hollywood can offer, but I wouldn't like to see them in the starring role if they didn't prove to be good for the part in the tests. What you said goes both ways, you know. ;)

Me? I have no problem with her auditioning. If she auditions and gets it then clearly she must be good for it. All i'm saying is that until then you can hardly say she is "perfect" or that she "blows away the competition" based solely on a couple of pictures and a handful of episodes of Xena. She is gonna have to do better than that and then some to be beat Connelly and Bellucci IMO.

[Scruff]

I've seen a really great manip of Catherine Bell of JAG as WW. She and Connelly are my top two choices. Both are in their mid-thirties, which is the age that the main heroes are portayed in the comics. But, sadly, WB feels that is too old and wants to cast actors in their late 20's.

Monica Belluci does not speak flawless English which should be a prerequisite for WW, not to mention she just doesn't look like WW.

Tsianina Joelson is about 5 or 6 inches too short to play WW, but otherwise would look great inthe role. (I coudln't find her exact height after an extensive search, and am basing this statement by comparing her to Renee O'Conner and Lucy Lawless.)

While Cahterine Z Jones is very beautiful, I seriously can't see her in the role. Bridget Moynahan is one of the few who is the perfect height, but I'm not sure she could pull it off either. (I have serious doubts about Bale and even more about Routh, but that's another story.)

Themyscera (not Paradise Island) is in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, in the Bermuda Triangle. While they make numerous references to the Greek Pantheon, the Amazons are under no obligation to be associated with Greece or the Mediterranean in a movie. The name Diana Prince isn't used any longer in the comics, just Diana. Steve Trevor is ancient history and much much older than Diana. To include those elements in a movie would be like adding "Zap" "Bam" in the next Batman film.

The rumors of SMG and CC connected to WW was shot down back in February. It makes no sense for that to come back up regardless of Joss Whedon. Morena Baccarin? Wonder woman is not a short Hispanic

[Hunter Rider]

well i like Bell but i think you'll find you are in the minority of fans who don't think monica is a great choice for wonder woman,I just can't see the nitpicky need for the perfect english thing and she has the physical resemblence IMO

as for your comments about Bale.....they cast a man of 30 because BB is based around the year 1 concept

See this is a sticking point with me. The late 80s Perez reboot of the character is the source of pretty much everything that is wrong with the character currently. Its his fault WW is seen as shiet.

Back in the day WW had a fairly succinct oigin story. It wasn't the most sophisticated but it was no more convoluted than Superman's and it worked. Now she has this bloody stupid origin full of extraneous bits and pieces that serve no real purpose. Why the cavewoman thing? Why have Diana Trevor crash on the island? Whay have two tribes? If you were to tell the current origin you would need a whole seperate movie to do so.

She had a secret identity. Now instead she is a damn celebrity... and "ambassador" for peace that speaks at the UN and goes on talk shows and stuff. Thats crap. Superheros should NOT be doing that stuff. Even Superman only does those things very occassionally.

She also had her own fictional city a la Gotham or Metropolis. Now she has... Boston. Seriously... no offence to Boston but i hardly wanna see the most powerful female in the world kicking ass there... i want somewhere more awe-inspiring.

Finally she had Steve. WTF was Perez thinking when he took WWs love interest out of the equation? Superman + Lois Lane... Batman + Catwoman... WW + ? Bloody moron.

Basically what i'm saying is that most of the iconic heroes (particularly DC ones) follow a template... secret identity, city, love interest. Perez scrapped all those and replace them with a bunch of quasi-new-age crap about love and peace and teaching the world to sing. Bollocks.
Including the old elements and cutting out 90% of the pointless clutter that Perez saddled the character with will NOT be like taking the franchise back to the "zap and pow days" of the Adam West Batman show... it will be like restoring something to the way it SHOULD be... the way it WORKS. WW needs to be taken back to how she was concieved in both movies AND the comics. If they did that BUT combined that with the sort of sophisticated storytelling you see in modern comics then WW would start to OWN. Personally i'd give the job to Mike Mignola. He has proven he can tell stories in a very subtle and minimal way. He is awesome with action and suspense. He is the KING of mythology in comics... under him WW would be handling the linda greek myth villains she SHOULD be going up against instead of third-rate Catwoman rip-offs like Cheetah. Mignola writing teamed with Adam Hughes on visuals would make WW something to REALLY look out for.

[pimpernel]

Oh and i forgot to say:

The Bermuda Triangle thing is crap. Firstly it has been conclusively proven that there IS no BT, so you can't use it anymore. Secondly the AMazons came to Themyscera/Paradise Island FROM the mediterranean, so they ARE under an obligation to be associated with the mediterranean cos thats where they are from.

And the Island IS called Paradise Island. Its only the capital city that is called Themyscera.

The cavewoman thing was done to explain why Hyppolita was the only amazon with the desire for a baby.
Diana Trevor crashed on the island to explain the otherwise unexplainable American Flag touches in WW's costume.
Diana has always been an ambassador of peace in the world of men, now she's really officially an ambassador.
And Perez even gave Diana her "Lois lane" in Ed Indelicato, ht rugged policeman.

I know why Perez did the things he did, but they are still crap. Its explaining for the sake of it and it makes the origin far too long and unwieldy.
Why is she the only one that wants a child? Maybe she isn't... maybe they all want children but she was the only one that got one. Maybe Hippolyta was pregnant when she came to Themyscera but the child didn't come to term cos the amazons don't age since they arrived. Perez could have come up with a simpler explanation... or simply not explained it at all.

Diana Trevor is another example of explaining things to death. WW could just adopt the colours when she moves to the states. Or it cold be a coincidence. Whatever... its just crap that Perez invented all this in-depth stuff to explain throwaway things.

Fair enough about her being an ambassador... but she shouldn't be doing regular ambassador type stuff like talk-shows or speeches all the time and she SHOULD keep her secret identity. Having WW in the limelight the whole time ruins her mystique.

Ed Indelicato is only one in a string of men WW has had a thing with. The fact is since Perez sidelined Steve Trevor there hasn't been a love interest along the lines of Lois or Catwoman. They come and go.

I know why Perez did the things he did, but they are still crap. Its explaining for the sake of it and it makes the origin far too long and unwieldy.
Why is she the only one that wants a child? Maybe she isn't... maybe they all want children but she was the only one that got one. Maybe Hippolyta was pregnant when she came to Themyscera but the child didn't come to term cos the amazons don't age since they arrived. Perez could have come up with a simpler explanation... or simply not explained it at all.

Diana Trevor is another example of explaining things to death. WW could just adopt the colours when she moves to the states. Or it cold be a coincidence. Whatever... its just crap that Perez invented all this in-depth stuff to explain throwaway things.

Fair enough about her being an ambassador... but she shouldn't be doing regular ambassador type stuff like talk-shows or speeches all the time and she SHOULD keep her secret identity. Having WW in the limelight the whole time ruins her mystique.

Ed Indelicato is only one in a string of men WW has had a thing with. The fact is since Perez sidelined Steve Trevor there hasn't been a love interest along the lines of Lois or Catwoman. They come and go.You know? It's really a matter of preference. Some people like things simple as yourself. I'm one of those who like things explained. The more detailed the explanation is, the more sense it makes to me. :p

Now I remember her. She has my vote if she's up for it.

[dpm07]

TJ defnitely has the youth to pull off WW, and the athleticism as seen in Bring it On, and in Xena. Does she have the talent? Hard to say, she must have some talent or she wouldn't be getting roles here and there. I think if Brandon Routh can get a chance to play Superman, then TJ should get an opportunity to do WW.

The issue with WW, is that you have IMO three people who have the look and athleticism Connelly, Bellucci, and TJ. 2 are great actresses, one is an unknown factor. All 3 are stone cold hot, but 2 have age as a factor working against them in the long run. From WB's standpoint, who do you logically want to develop a franchise around over a potential 2-3 picture deal? That's what is going to be the prevailing question.

[ultimatefan]

Okay, you Joelson freaks, just tell me two things:

- Have you actually seen her act before going all crazy for her?

- Do you have any good reason besides "she looks good in an amazon suit"?

Yeah that sounds good.

[dpm07]

Those are some pretty good Monica pictures Sage and Pimpernel. I definitely wouldn't be upset if she did get the role. If WB/DC is smart, Monica is the ideal choice with Connelly as a second. If youth wins out, then TJ could be a viable candidate.

[Darko]

I hope Tsianina Joelson at least auditions for the part. I think that her chances of snagging the role is slimmer than Connelly or Bellucci because she just too unknown and hopefully she didn't slip passed WB's radar just yet. My choice still remains the same, and hopefully she will get the word that she is being considered a candidate for the role. I think we DID overreact with Tsianina, so I will try to take it one step at a time and just say Tsianina should attempt to get the role.

[Head>On<Collider]

someone needs to produce a TJ as WW photo manip.

[Donnie Darko]

ok, I have a decent understanding of WW's origins and whatnot, but although many people (especially Monica supporters) use the whole ethnic/Greek look as a validation for their casting, every time I've ever seen WW in a comic book, she just looks like a beautiful, stacked white chick with an athletic build.

Black hair and blue eyes almost always mean your background is pretty ethnic as opposed to WASP-y, though.

[Lucid]

to all Monica Bellucci supporters, I have a question.

Do you believe that WB considers Bellucci a serious candidate?

Putting myself in the place of a studio exec, I wouldn't consider her because she doesn't speak perfect english. She sounds Italian. That's a big problem. I don't think a studio will hire her, so what's the point of talking about her?

Because she can act, and she has the look. I do wonder if perfect English is necessary to play a woman who was born on a mythical island. ;)

Has anyone seen Tears of the Sun? How did she sound in the film?

I agree that she is never drawn with any kind of ethnicity, which is why i think its stupid to say that whoever is cast MUST be greek. But seeing as technically the amazons are from the mediterranean it would be a nice touch if the actress was vaguely exotic looking... not necessary by any means, just nice. With Bellucci you would get that.

I honestly don't know but i sincerely hope so for a couple of reasons:

1) She is one of WWs two Bales. Something like 95% percent of fans want either her or Conelly, and many of those would be happy with either.

2) We will never know if Bale wa cast cos of his overwhelming fan support on the net... but it is tempting to think so. We also do know that fans on the net HAVE led to Ryan Reynolds very possibly becoming the new Flash. We also heard a rumour recently by someone connected with the GL project saying that WB is going after the internet fave for the role... Tom Cruise. With all this info i gotta think that if so many of us are preaching for Monica or Connelly then they have GOT to have a serious shot at the role. I understand some people might be concerned about age but i'mhoping WB will look at it the way i do: most of the fans want her... the film is for the fans... if the fans don't care about the age then neither do we. Hopefully.

Either way i'm not gonna let up with the Monica/Jen pushing until someone is cast officially, cos i see that stuff seems to have had had tangible results for other franchises.

[dpm07]

Because she can act, and she has the look. I do wonder if perfect English is necessary to play a woman who was born on a mythical island. ;)

Has anyone seen Tears of the Sun? How did she sound in the film?

I've seen Tears of The Sun (Actually own it on DVD), as well as the Matrix films, and she definitely spoke English well enough. She is going to be in The Brothers Grimm with Heath Ledger and Matt Damon, and will undoubtedly speak English in that film. In Brotherhood of the Wolf, she did her own voice in English, so she didn't have a VA do the English dub of that part.

[pimpernel]

I meant to say before about her english. Firstly, its fine. She has done lots of english language films and speaks perfect english. Second, yes she has an accent but in the case of WW that is actually very much to her benefit. It would bring some authenticity to the character.

Agreed. To be honest, I don't think the general public will be able to differentiate between a Greek accent, and an Italian one. Unless you have studied linguistics or are of a Mediterranean descent, then the general public will probably not be able to differentiate. It's sad, but true. I'm not saying everyone is like that, but I think a majority of people are, so having a Latin Romantic-based language accent, versus a Greek modern day katharevusa language may not be noticeable to the general public.

Wonder Woman's dialect for the Greek would most likely be a form of Attic-Ionic, as this was the language of the Classical Hellenic Greek Period. If it is an earlier based Greek it would probably be a Linear B type with Phoenician elements.

[ultimatefan]

Well, let´s take in consideration that she actually doesn´t even come from a real place to begin with, so why make a fuzz with her looks and accent? Cast the first stone who has visited Themyscira (not sure I spelled right)...

[Hunter Rider]

I see a lot of Belluci and jc support but the poll doesn't reflect this:(

[pimpernel]

The poll is skewed tho cos a lot of people are voting for Joelson based solely on the pics of her in the Amazon costume. Some dumbasses see one pic and are convinced so-and-so would be perfect. Sad but true. If we had a pic of Bellucci or Connelly in a similar costume with a scowl on their face then the vote would go way up for them. Thing is pollslike this are unreliable. As i said before EVERYONE was harping on about Megan Gale a few months back like she was god's gift, but now nobody every mentions her. It will be the same with Joeslon i a few weeks. The important thing to note is that next to joelson pretty much all the votes are split between bellucci and Connelly... and thats the way it was months ago and how it will be months from now. They are CONSISTENTLY right at the top of the polls, and thats what counts.

[pimpernel]

BTW i'm not saying everyone who voted for Joelson is a dumbass. But a lot of people drop in here for a flying visit, see the one pic, and vote for her. Those are the dumbasses.

I know what you mean. It's like people wanting TW for the role of Superman just because they've seen him play a version of the character on Smallville. Nevermind the fact that there are others out there who can do the job as well. So she looks good in an Amazonian costume. Big deal. So does Melinda Clark, maybe she should be Wonder Woman. :o

[dk]

Well, let´s take in consideration that she actually doesn´t even come from a real place to begin with, so why make a fuzz with her looks and accent?

It's more important that they get an actress who embodies the attitude and heart of Diana than one who looks exactly like her, or speaks with some kind of Greek/Mediterranean accent. In fact, I figure too much of an accent will be off-putting to American audiences. Sometimes Monica Bellucci's English is a little tough to understand, frankly - and that's in limited roles, where she speaks few lines. Imagine her trying to carry 90% of a film's dialog for a full 120 minutes. A lot of people will tune out, IMO. The giant rack pushed into her outfit will only mesmerize folks for so long.

I'd rule out any actress significantly over 30 for this part. Despite the label "Wonder Woman," Diana is young when her story begins, about 18. You also have to look at the possibility of 2-3 sequels, which would take their toll on an actress who's 35-40 going into the first picture. By the conclusion, you've got a 50 year-old Wonder Woman - not the best image for an immortal Amazon princess.

I'm currently leaning towards a buffed-up Liv Tyler for Diana. She's got a calm, peaceful presence that I think really embodies the character. But there's definitely a fire there she can tap into - Diana needs both qualities, IMO. Tyler's an immensely likable actress in general - I think casting a Diana who can easily win audience goodwill is a key. Liv can do a sexy, deep voice - appropriately commanding when it needs to be (see LOTR). She's a tall drink of water, Amazonian in proportions. She passes for all-American, but resembles Italian, Greek, etc. She could convincingly be any number of nationalitites. Last but not least, she's a recognized actor but not a star. Inexpensive, easier to sign to a 3-picture deal, big enough to front "Wonder Woman," which is going to draw a lot of its audience from name value alone. Still, Liv Tyler brings some marquee value to the role - more than a complete unknown, or even someone like Monica Bellucci (in America).

[Aethea]

I just hope they do not get any airhed-type actresses like Jess Alba. That is just eye candy casting minus personality.

[Darko]

BTW i'm not saying everyone who voted for Joelson is a dumbass. But a lot of people drop in here for a flying visit, see the one pic, and vote for her. Those are the dumbasses.

I know why I chose Tsianina Joelson.:mad::up:

She is a decent actress, with the right look down and most definitely the right physique. She is beautiful yet masculine, and I think that is a quality Wonder Woman should have. I quote a magazine article about her performances, one specifically referring to her and her acting abilities:

"Joelson is no stranger to the camera; she's been in independent and feature films in her home town of Los Angeles, and has hosted a "kind of a hip-hop, kick-boxing, workout show" on MTV But it was when she was cast as a guest actor in Xena that the excitement really hit home - literally."
She also worked with Warner Brothers before.

-"Her co-host on "The Daily Burn" was "Baywatch" star Michael Bergin. That led to pilots with Warner Brothers and Jan DeBant (the "Die Hard" films, "Hunt for Red October") and a nod from Rolling Stone magazine as "The Hottest Body in the World."

Needing an agent, she landed with Burbank's powerful Gold Mashak Liedtke, the talent and literary agency, no less.

In Universal's "Cheer Fever," she'll play a 17-year-old cheerleader, a part she figures to nail.

"I have to go to cheerleader camp for a month," she says.

When the Joelsons aren't making casting rounds or attending Hollywood premieres, they're usually working at the inn in Shady Cove. When she's in L.A., she stays with her aunt and uncle.

"It's been a great ride," her husband says.

"We've been lucky," she says. "It's a dream, an adventure."

I think she would have the same extreme dedication as Bale for his Batman role. IMO

Nothing in that post changes my mind about her even slightly cos I'VE SEEN HER ACT and she 's nothing to write home about. Her performances are one-note and don't have any depth. She is IMO about as good an actress as someone like Yasmine Bleeth. Her smile looks like a sneer. She just isn't anything special at all.

[ironman1188]

Catherine Bell or Lucy Lawless would be my choices.

I think Another example of airhead-type actresses that shouldn't get the role based on her looks would definately be ANGELINA JOLIE....she is hot, I will give you that, and she might be a step above Jessica Alba in acting, but she would just be wrong for the part! So I agree with you on Jessica Alba!

I wonder if Jessica Alba would even think of doing Wonder Woman as she is playing Sue Storm in the Fantastic Four movie, and playing in Frank Miller's Sin City

[The Techno Bat]

Thank You for clearing that up. Because I am a supporter of Tsianina Joelson for Wonder Woman, and posted a picture of her in the amazon costume, along with a few others. I hope you don't consider me a Dumb Ass. But I do see what your saying, and it's a shame that people don't research or atleast check out all of the canadiates before voting.

And again out of all the woman tagged for this poll, the best person in my view is....Tsianina Joelson. Now alot of people are saying she can't act or is one dimensional, well that may be, but this could be her break out role. She could realize the importance of this role and put her all into it. She is beautiful, has a great body, is a proven actress, and looks the part!

Jessica alba would be the last person to portray Wonder Woman. That would be a complete miscast IMO. You need someone not as feminine as Alba, allittle more maculine. A decent actress ( someone who doesnt need an academy award to prove she can pull off the role... :o) with the look and attitude of a warrior, yet maternal and caring. Oh, and you need someone who doesnt have about a busy film schedule.:o

You do have a right to your opinion. This is a poll after all. And many 'dumbasses' have suggested other women solely on their looks. I think Tsianina could pull off WW if she prepared for it.

Umm....Yes. I know. That's basically what I just said.

I know I just wanted to reiterate(sp) that is all. And I was responding to somebody else's thread with the whole issue with Jessica Alba, I didn't bring her up at all to begin with. No biggie though :ghost:

It's not Tsianina fault if she looks perfect for the part, and played an amazon in Xena, and there is already a picture of her in a amazon costume already, that should be a added bonus, so we can see what she would look like somewhat if she got the part of Wonder Woman.

[Donnie Darko]

2) We will never know if Bale wa cast cos of his overwhelming fan support on the net... but it is tempting to think so. We also do know that fans on the net HAVE led to Ryan Reynolds very possibly becoming the new Flash. We also heard a rumour recently by someone connected with the GL project saying that WB is going after the internet fave for the role... Tom Cruise. With all this info i gotta think that if so many of us are preaching for Monica or Connelly then they have GOT to have a serious shot at the role. I understand some people might be concerned about age but i'mhoping WB will look at it the way i do: most of the fans want her... the film is for the fans... if the fans don't care about the age then neither do we. Hopefully.


Since when is Tom Cruise the internet fan choice for GL? Is the studio or media trying to feed us a choice and say it's what we really want? I'm not saying I'm particularly ANTI-Tom Cruise for the role, but he is by no means the overwhelming fanboy choice for the role like Bale for Batman.

None of this is her fault, but it´s silly and unfair that she gets all those votes from people who probably never saw her act and some great actresses don´t get it just because they never wore an amazon suit.

Thats all i was saying. :up: And i'm even a wee bit bemused by the folks that HAVE seen her act to be honest cos some of them are still saying she is better than Connelly or Bellucci and i'm starting to wonder if we are watching the same actress. :p I'll agree she MAY pull some acting skills outta the bag when she goes to audition... but i don't think you can see any evidence of such skills based on her work to date.

No but see thats what i'm saying tho... i'm saying that even those that have seen her act.. how can you say she is really good based purely on a handful of Xena eps and a few bit parts in cruddy teen movies?

Unless they're the leads or supporting cast. Eveyone else you have to watch on a case-by-case basis. Lucy Lawless, if she were younger, would kill as Diana. She's got the serious side and the comedic side (her natural personality).

As for Joelson Batgirl i hope you know i'm not dissing her or anything just for the sake of it. I'm not even dissing her really. I'm just teling people to be more cautious than they are instead of saying she is better than anyone else without really seeing her do anything to prove that. I'm just asking for the wait-and-see attitude that people have right now with Routh is all.
Don't wanna fall out with you Batgirl you're one fo the few people i like from back when SHH was still good. :p

No, I understand. When it comes to "Xena," I get really excited.

Tsianina wasn't SUPERB as Varia, but I don't think she was horrible either. Her character was written as impetuous and head-strong, which definitely showed in Joelson's performance. I'd like to see her at least audition for the role. If she gets it, great. I can say "I knew her when..." If not, no biggie. I'm sure Whedon will choose someone perfect for the role.

I just want to jump in and say what has Jennifer Connely ever done besides play the damsel in distress? And the poor me type of roles? She hasn't done anything in the sense of action has she? But on the other end of the spectrum I realize that she is a wonderful actress, and has the right look, and if she was cast as Wonder Woman I wouldn't have a problem with it, I just feel as though Tsisiana is better suited for the role is all.

sorry, I wasn't meaning to blame you. I read that news thing, too. And I'm really mad if WB is trying to make it sounds like Tom Cruise is the overwhelming fanboy choice. Actually, there really hasn't been an overwhelming choice for GL from what I've seen. I mean, for Kyle Raynor, a lot of people like Wes Bentley and Shane West (from what I've seen online here. Correct me if I'm wrong), but for Hal, it just seems like a toss-up.

BTW, I´m not making a suggestion, I know that´s not gonna happen, but am I the only one who thinks Jen Garner could have been a much better Wonder Woman than Elektra? She´s a pretty decent actress, she can be a tough chick and she has an innocent and vulnerable side I think fits Diana much more than the dark Elektra. Just thinking out loud.

I just saw Bring It On with Tsianina Joelson. She's ok, but not great. She's kind of doofy. You know, heavy jaw and upturned pig nose. Not overwhelmingly, just a little bit. Though she is sort of "striking," like, she stands out from the others. It might be her eyebrows--they are very black and sharp looking. She looks kinda short, though. Someone guessed 5'6'' and that seems about right.

One thing about her that's great is that she's really pretty and feminine and yet, at the same time, has muscle and looks strong, but not too much where she looks masculine. She has a perfect balance. Some guy could walk up to her and think "she looks hot," but then be afraid to tell her because she could kick his ass. That's Wonder Woman.

I think her major problem is that she's not tall. It seems like Wonder Woman needs to be tall in order to be intimidating. I'd say, if Joelson were 6' or even 5'10'' she would be perfect, but she's not. She has enough of a quality where I would say she has potential, and she definitely deserves to audition, but I think we could find better.

[pimpernel]

She can't fill the wonder bra. :down

;)

She fills it enough. Remember you are gonna have to armour-plate the wonder-puppies anyways and thats gonna bulk them up... if she is hugeup top already and THEN you add the armour she is gonna look like pammy or something. :eek:

Like i said i'd still much rather have Connelly or Bellucci but if they insist on going young then Lilly is the best choice IMO.

[pimpernel]

That is sooo easy to fake. :rolleyes: The hard part will be the acting and getting the actress fit enough.

I think Lost proves she is physical enough for it. :up:

[pimpernel]

I just want to jump in and say what has Jennifer Connely ever done besides play the damsel in distress? And the poor me type of roles? She hasn't done anything in the sense of action has she?

Thats just not true. She did a bunch of damsel in distress stuff early in her career and still does sometimes, but a lot of her stuff now is characters that are quiet yet fiesty. Watch House Of Sand And Fog. She has several scenes in that where she cuts loose and gets all angry and she REALLY puts herself into it. She more than shows that she has the ability to be a badass if required. Same with Waking The Dead and Requim For A Dream... she has "angry" scenes in all of those and it proves she has it in her. Thing is so far she just hasn't had a role where she has needed to showcase that side for longer periods, but she is more than capable.

[The Techno Bat]

I just saw Bring It On with Tsianina Joelson. She's ok, but not great. She's kind of doofy. You know, heavy jaw and upturned pig nose. Not overwhelmingly, just a little bit. Though she is sort of "striking," like, she stands out from the others. It might be her eyebrows--they are very black and sharp looking. She looks kinda short, though. Someone guessed 5'6'' and that seems about right.

One thing about her that's great is that she's really pretty and feminine and yet, at the same time, has muscle and looks strong, but not too much where she looks masculine. She has a perfect balance. Some guy could walk up to her and think "she looks hot," but then be afraid to tell her because she could kick his ass. That's Wonder Woman.

I think her major problem is that she's not tall. It seems like Wonder Woman needs to be tall in order to be intimidating. I'd say, if Joelson were 6' or even 5'10'' she would be perfect, but she's not. She has enough of a quality where I would say she has potential, and she definitely deserves to audition, but I think we could find better.

You have made great points. I am a huge supporter for Tsianina to play Wonder Woman, and you could throw her in some lifts to bring her up to about 5'9 or 5'10. Look at Micheal Keaton he wasn't 6'2 for Batman but he filled the cape and cowl nicely, Keaton I believe is like 5'8. But lifts could do wonders and doesn't wonder woman run around in high heels anyway... Again great points!

There is no doubt in my mind that Connely could pull it off, but it's just that risk factor, like you support Connely because she is a great actress and could do it in your mind, but in my opinion that is a huge risk taking an actress that hasn't proven herself alot physically in movies, especially with Wonder Woman. But on the other side it is a huge risk factor in your opinion to take somebody like Tsianina, who is just an average actress, but has all the other qualities to play the role. Too bad we couldn't merge the two together then we would have the perfect choice! But we agree to disagree and that is what makes this so much fun

I see what your saying i just think that teaching someone (especially a former GYMNAST) to do physical stuff is a lot easier and far less of a gamble than teaching someone to act better. At the end of the day you can train a bloody monkey to do fight scenes, so i would much rather go for an awesome actress (and former GYMNAST) than someone whos main qualifications seem to be "looks good in an Amazon suit" and "has done a bunch of physcial stuff."

You make some excellent and great points and it should be acknowledged....Unlike others who just say a name, and that is it. I like it when there is reason behind picking somebody, alot of people just say a name and that is it. That bugs me....

[SolidRoar]

I agree. That's how flamewars start, actually. Pimpernel is one of the few that make sense on what he says and provide reasons. Though, I agree with him for the most part, I try to be more realistic when it come to casting and I prefer an unknown for the starring role. Other than that, hid choices for WW aren't bad at all and there's a side of me that actually want to see them taking the part. I think the actress' age should depend on the movie's story - if it's an origin story, they should probably go with a younger actress.

I agree. While I admit connelly would be a good choice, Tsianina was born for the part. She without a doubt deserves to audition for the part.

yes, there should be no throwing of poop. I agree with pimpernel about Jennifer Connelly. And in the spirit of compromise, why not do what was done in Superman: The Movie and do the origin with a younger actress for those who thinks Jennifer Connelly is too old? We could build up to when she finally appears outside Paradise Island in the full WW duds by having a younger actress play out the origin,then kick it with Jennifer Connelly for the present Wonder Woman. That could work, couldn't it? Because, in my opinion, Jennifer Connelly doesn't look old at all (insert the Tobey-Maguire-playing-a-teenager argument here). But that would be nice to see if it was done somewhat in that way.

I'm not of the opinion that if Jennifer Connelly isn't cast that the movie won't fly, but it's my extremely strong opinion that SHE was born for the role. Sure there are others who look the part and may do very well, but I think she'd be the very best, given her calibur as an actress and just the fact that she looks the part despite however old she is. I don't think it's wise to have someone look too young playing WW. I think she should represent eternity, not eternal youth. Connelly has aged very gracefully, and she looks quite beautiful still. She is stunning in House of Sand and Fog, and she plays a druggie in that movie. Imagine if she bulked up a bit and got toned to play an Amazonian. I think many naysayers would swallow their tongue.

and again, this is my opinion, and I am in no way poopshooting.

[pimpernel]

I don't think that would work cos WW doesn't really have an origin. There is the amazon origin and then there is WW's birth and then you've gotta cut straight to Steve Trevor crashing on Paradise Island and WW leaving... at which point she needs to be the same age she will be for the rest of the movie.
The inbetween stuff with her growing up and training can only be done in a montage at the most cos there is sooo much VITAL origin stuff already that if you included fuller scenes of her growing up then you would be near the end of the damn movie before she even left PA. That stuff doesn't really serve any purpose either. You could use the Batman Begins argument that showing the training gives you an insight into the capabilities of the character, but all that stuff is gonna get shown again anyways when you do the contest to choose a champion. Its dumb to show it twice and since the contest is vital then the training has has to go.
Anyways long story short there just isn't really any room to show a "young" Wondie.

[Slipping_Halo]

yea, on second thought your way would work much better. In that case, I still stand behind JC for WW. I think others may do well, but nobody could do better.

[pimpernel]

I think i'd start the movie with Trevor's crash and then have Hippolyta or someone relate the origin of the Amazon's to him as he is being nursed back to health. You could have the contest taking place as he is recovering too. I think it'd be a neat way to get all the stuff done without taking up half of the movie.

[Spiked]

Catherine Zeta Jones is my first choice. Jennifer Connelly is also a good choice.

[Ledfeather]

She might be a little old but I tell ya for looks Renee Sofer, she not a complete unknown. But you wouldnt be thinking of other rolls she's done well she wears the leotards.

[criticalcasting]

I browsed through some threads, and read Jennifer Connelly, Catherine Zeta Jones, and Angelina Jolie as WW suggestions. And I disagree. Christian Bale said it best "The actor should not be greater than the character they are playing." And for anyone's information, I am a huge Angelina Jolie fan (way back when she was in Cyborg 2, I even had a fansite), but I never liked her as Lara Croft, they should have cast someone else. Getting back to WW. I saw 'John Q' in theaters, and when Heather Wahlquist (as "Julie Bird", the hostage with the abusive boyfriend) came on screen, it was as if Wonder Woman came on screen. The best casting choice in my opinion, requires two things: the look, and the acting ability. For me, Heather Wahlquist has the look (super-toned legs, very fit body, gorgeous face), the only thing that is sparse is her acting resume. Her lines in John Q were small, I did not see her performance in The Notebook (supporting cast), and she is currently working on Alpha Dog. But if looks were my first criteria, then she has already made it as my top casting choice! Be prepared, I have a crapload of screenshots from John Q. Opinions?

Soooo, legs, huh? - LOL :p

Why don't you go to www.dc-on-film.com and post you choice on the WW forum?

[Slipping_Halo]

if looks were our first criteria, we wouldn't be arguing at all and just picked some model or something that looks the part. i think acting chops is what is giving all of us different opinions and choices.

[criticalcasting]

Why don't you go to www.dc-on-film.com (http://www.dc-on-film.com/) and post you choice on the WW forum?Hell yes legs! Heather Wahlquist was decent in John Q. I still ahve to see how she was in The Notebook. There is still lots of time. And yes any model we could pick, but she's already an actress, she just needs a little more exposure. I am just really against casting a well-known actress. I'd rather gamble on letting the movie make someone a star, rather than gambling on well-known star who'll ruin a comic icon that has lasted through decades. I think of Ben Affleck as Daredevil, and it's pretty depressing. I think of George Clooney as Batman, and I wish it were never a reality. Like Christian Bale said, "The actor should never be greater than the character they are playing". I agree.

thanks for the suggestion to post on dc-on-film.com

[pimpernel]

This should've gone in the other thread. And no.

[Fused]

I'd be down with this choice.

[Fused]

With WW being a hot topic nowadays I gotta address to all the Belucci fans that I am a fan of hers myself. I agree that shes gorgeous and I loved her in Brotherhood of the Wolf and the Matrix films. But give up the dream, as Wonder Woman it just aint gonna happen.

[igotatromboner]

Good find. I'd back her, but then I remember MONICA BELLUCCI!!!

[criticalcasting]

Monica Belluci - beautiful, but looks too old to me to play WW.

Jennifer Connelly - she's been around, but looks to drowsy to me.

Carrie Anne Moss - overexposed from Matrix, though she could've been Aeon Flux if there were no Matrix movies yet

Catherine Zeta Jones - please, she's too old, and i don't want to see t-mobile comemricals in my head

Tsianina Joelson - she's pretty fit, but her face doesn't read WW to me.

Morena Baccarin - doesn't stand out for me.

Charisma Carpenter - she's pretty, for a younger WW.

Sarah Michelle Gellar - please, she's like an imp, she's too petite, i need a WOMAN..she still looks like she's a college freshman. i need a WOMAN to be WW.

Angelina Jolie - if AJ wasn't so thin, and if she never did the Tomb Raider movies, then I might consider her (and I AM a huge AJ fan, but that alone won't make me want to choose her). She's better playing slightly evil roles. She's too much of a sexy bad girl. Catwoman/Selina Kyle might suit her better.


So here's my choices so far!!!

I still haven't seen anyone that has made me rethink my decision on Connelly or Bellucci...

[The Techno Bat]

I still support Tsianina Joelson for Wonder Woman, and I see the argument for Jennifer Connelly, especially after seeing her in a preview for her new movie, which looks pretty good. And I saw JC's new movie during Blade Trinity, which brings me to another woman that I would like to throw out there for a choice for Wonder Woman...what about Jessica Biel? After seeing her in Blade Trinity she is a proven ass kicker, is in amazing shape, drop dead gorgeous, and can definately act. So what about Jessica Biel, she is young and could pump out two or three wonder woman movies and still be in her 30's when it is all said and done?

[criticalcasting]

I'd be down with this choice.
Cool. Nice to see someone not choosing a well -known actress. I think of Christopher Reeve as Superman. He BECAME our image of Superman. They didn't use some current star of the time to headline. I'm thinking they should do the same with WW. simply because there are too many well known actresses whose names will mire the real character that is trying to be portrayed. Yes, there are tons of talented actresses, but I want someone to BECOME WW. It just reminds me that the majority of society simply feeds off of what the tabloids, media keep on shoving in front of their eyes. I mean I guess I can't blame the people who want to see a Catherine Zeta Jones, Jennifer Connelly, or Angelina Jolie, if that's the only actresses they always see or hear about in the entertainment media, and they don't watch anything else. In the end, it's the casting/director's decision, which I fear most of the time:)

[criticalcasting]

1) They all look like cheap go-go dancers.

2) None of them can act for shiet.There ARE other pics available. These I just chose to show off the bodies they already have ready to play such a role.

I can't make a substantial call on their acting abilities yet, because they haven't been given large parts. Heather Wahlquist is just starting to have a career, Brittany Daniel's done lots of tv, and Krista Allen has done soap opera and has been around. Krista probably has the most acting experience. Unless you've seen all her work, I wouldn't discredit her so quickly.

And I would have no complaints if they go-go danced for mehttp://www.superherohype.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif

Jennifer Connelly is talented, but her face doesn't strike me as strong and beautiful. Not saying she's ugly, she's very pretty, but that there are lots other actresses with more strikingly beautiful faces than her. Monica Belluci, well she has too much age written on her face. I luved her in Matrix, but she has that "older woman" sexiness (she's 40+ yrs old!). I would rather choose the woman in the pink dress that the Merovingian had the special dessert for. Or also the woman in the red dress that Mouse created in the Matrix simulation program.

My real opinion is that I wish they wouldn't make a WW movie. It's always hard to please the fans in making a live action film. I think no one would be arguing if they simply made a Justice League animated theatrical movie from the cartoon series with the current voice actors.http://www.superherohype.com/forums/images/smilies/batman.gif

OK lemme try to be polite about this. They still look like go-go dancers. That would be because the actresses themselves look like go-go dancers, therefore every pic you see them in: go-go dancers.
They have been suggested many times before and y'know why people still don't vote for them? Go-go dancers.
Lemme give you an example. Krista Allen. Whats she famous for? Soft core porn. Nuff said... that fact alone takes her outta the running.
So to sum up: WW shouldn't look like a cheap vegas hooker.

Next point: You are tripping if you think Conelly isn't striking.

Next: Bellucci is 36. Check your facts. Its well known here that IMDB is wrong with that one. All other websites (including her official one) give her age as 36... and definately NOT "40+"... nice twisting BTW.

Lastly: Don't be giving us your damn casting opinions if you don't think the movie should be made. Whats the point of that? You basically just said you don't give a toss about the movie, so all your suggestions are gonna be half-arsed at best.

Heheh. dude, you need to lighten up. If you like Connelly, then that's fine. I only gave my own opinions. I wasn't trying to "twist" any facts because I have no intentions of doing so. I don't have all the time in the world to do deep research either. I checked imdb, so do millions of other people. You want to be polite about it, but I never asked for you to be rude about it in the first place. And even if I think the movie shouldn't be made, doesn't mean I shouldn't have opinions about it. I can live with multiple choices. It's not difficult for me. Anyway, I have a feeling they might pull the formula of using a less-known/unknown actor and surrounding them with bigger stars, just like they are doing for Batman Begins, just like they are doing for Superman Returns, and just like they did for the original Superman movie. We'll just have to wait and see.:rolleyes: :batman:

monica bellucci... gorgeous but not "i'm going to tear you apart" enough

jennifer connelly... kind of frail looking. i can only see it as far as her face.

Just darken her hair. Her natural colour is really dark anyways but all the pics of that are from when she was even younger than here.
Her most recent pics show she has even lost the puppy fat and is looking way more womanly than ever...

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v310/simonpimpernel/heigl2.jpgKatherine Heigl!! I Love her!! She's sooo Hot. But she isn't WW. Although I could see her playing Artemis, Diana's competitor. (and one time WW) I actually envisioned her doing that part sometime back.

What about Jessica Biel, to throw another name out there for a younger Wonder Woman?

Nah. But she'd make a nifty Artemis.

Just throwing out another younger actress. :cool:
She can definately kick ass and would be great as a Wonder Woman Allie or Villian, she was really good in Blade Trinity.

Brittany Daniel (Joe Dirt, Club Dread)

Look at those abs! If anyone has seen her in Club Dread, then you'll know how fit this woman is!


Being Fit and Being able to act though are two different things.

[Captain Wonder]

Michelle Lintel is a HUGE WW fan and according to Black Scorpion fans the sexy actress is doing infomercials now, but she'd be a GREAT WW!!!

[Fused]

I'd also be down with Jess Biel. She'd need to amp up her fighting abilities a couple notches from blade trinity. But with good directing that can be helped.

Rhona Mitra looks perfect. But Im afraid her acting range would hurt her a bit. I havent seen that TV show shes on, though.

Belucci...again nothing but love for her, but give up the dream. She aint happening.

[Red Mask]

I saw this TV movie starring Charisma Carpenter. And she didn't look young anymore.

[Darko]

Tsianina!!! :D

i gotta agree... i don't see wonder woman in those two suggestions at all. they don't look... extraordinary enough to me.

monica bellucci... gorgeous but not "i'm going to tear you apart" enough
carrie ann moss... MEH!
jennifer connelly... kind of frail looking. i can only see it as far as her face.
charisma carpenter... one smack will shatter her to pieces.

i think tsianina joelson looks great for the part but i honestly couldn't judge based on her acting because i haven't seen her act.

here's a manip i did of her with diana blues.

[BC4ever]

I thought to Musetta Vander (Shan'auc in STARGATE SG1), Melinda clarke (the OC) and Robia la Morte for WW.

[Phantomex]

This was a casting idea I had a while back, wanted to see how she would look in the suit so I made this. Don't know if I would suggest it anymore though.

:up: Great effort though. And I gotta agree with you, I don't see her as Wonder Woman either. :up:

[CLARKY]

She is very beautiful, and could look the part, but the question is, can she really act? And from what I have seen from her, that would be NO!

[pimpernel]

Ali is gorgeous but she can't act. Shame. Also (and i know this is nitpicking) i don't want the Wonder Puppies to be made from plastic. Just seems wrong.

[Webley]

I say give the part to this woman.

yes yes I know..and I agree.I was just...U know...approaching the idea.too bad.but at least physically speaking I found her really great!

[CLARKY]

but with the voice of susan eisenberg, and FX 4 her mouth and body language from someone else, and FX 4 the face expressions?........it could work, couldn't it?


naaaaaaaaaaaahh!ok ok!

[CLARKY]

could someone try to manip Ali?4 fun.

Physically speaking she looks the part, that much I agree with you. And sparking the conversation :D

[Webley]

LOL!

i was thinking she can make a special appearance as Diana's mother Hippolyta (sp?). blonde or brunette, she's still lovely :)

[Captain Wonder]

Lynda Carter Is Wonder Woman!!!!

[The Techno Bat]

LOL!

That is the only way I would want to see Lynda Carter in a Wonder Woman movie

[Aethea]

Linda Carter CANNOT act at all. She is gorgeous and beautiful, but looks are not enough.

yeah I'd agree with that.

[pimpernel]

Ouch. I gotta say i'd never cast her if she hadn't done it back in the day cos she looks really old now and not even remotely Amazonesque, but the fact is she DID do WW and she OWNED the character and it'd be really cruel not putting in this... kinda like not having Adam West in Batman89.

Ok For the casting of Wonder Woman. The woman got to have a nice Bod & she's got to have some nice Goods :rolleyes: :cool:

Catherine Zeta Jones
