Official Wonder Woman Casting Suggestions [merged-13]

[Steelsheen]

well, since we're tossing names in the air....


what about Jaime King? she's a blonde in most photos but has auburn hair in Bullet Proof Monk. she looks pretty striking regardless of hair color, has blue eyes, perfectly smooth skin, 5'9 tall and looks pretty convincing in action sequences (Bullet Proof Monk and perhaps in Sin City). plus she has that commanding presence WW should be noted for. she's done movie work more or less the same level as Maguire has before he nabbed Spidey-- so that fits the "unknown talent" requirement and she's 25 years old (turning 26 this April)-- which fits the age range Whedon has preference for. she can certainly tone up a bit more and undergo some weight training, but from what i've seen of her in Bullet Proof Monk and Sin City she can fit the Wondersuit pretty well.

its tough trying to find photos of her since they're sparse, so i got the one from Monk instead.

[Gratticus]

Only problem is, most of the Supermen drawn in comics today...look like Reeve. LOL

not really. he's usually wider and more built.

[Gratticus]

O.K I like the idea of Jordana Brewster. I'm also kind of shocked that nobody's brought up Shannon Elizabeth or Liz Vassey from the Tick tv show now that I think about it.

shannon elizabeth is a terrible actress, is a ho and has fake boobs. i'd prefer my WW to be all natural.

i like her face the best. it's very mature looking and she has a strong jawline. even tho she's young, she doesn't look like the other young ho's people have been tossing around. she looks sophisticated and intelligent. with contacts and some exercise she'd be perfect.

Jaime is a good choice, and someone like her is who they will probably go with, even though she's in her mid-20's rather than early 20's.

Another model turned actress who atleast deserves to tryout as she's the most physically perfect for the role, and has looked like a "woman" since she was 17 if not before, is Kim Smith. Think Liv Tyler or Evangeline Lilly with a perfect body as well as face. And she's the only one of these suggestions who's said they want to play Wonder Woman. Noone can honestly say whether she is a good actress here. You can't really judge until her next movie comes out which is the first she'll have a really big role in.

[batdude]

That's a maybe. she looks more like a Supergirl though.

[The Sage]

Gotta disagree there. I see more potential for WW than for Supergirl.

We'll see.

[Gratticus]

that's the stupidest thing i've ever read.

[batdude]

Hey look, Supergirl's a blonde O.K? It was just a thought.

[Gratticus]

Hey look, Supergirl's a blonde O.K? It was just a thought.

So? Everyone who is a blonde is automatically Supergirl? WTF?

[Dark Knight]

I will start my rebuttal with a quote:


I do not think my reasoning is flawed. Five months after Wonder Woman first issued in All American Comics back in 1943 she was rated 40 to 1 over her nearest male superhero rival in a readers poll conducted by the publishers (source Castlekeys Galleries (http://www.castlekeys.com/Pages/wonder.html)). Since then, she has had her own comic book for over 60 years (only Batman and Superman have ran longer). This is more than deserving of an icon status. Do you know of any other female heroine with such credentials? Take note that Catwoman and Electra are secondary charaters and have never sustained their own titles for as long as Wonder Woman. Even Joss Whedon -- a director, writer and producer, who co-wrote "Toy Story" and is most famously known for creating "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" -- in an E-online article, had admitted that she is the most iconic female character of our time (see article (http://www.eonline.com/News/Items/0,1,16145,00.html)). I believe this to be true and that this is the difference between Catwoman and Electra (they would not have existed in film without the Batman and Daredevil movies respectively).


I will agree that doing a movie about a female heroine is not easy (considering the success of movies like Tank Girl, Catwoman, and Electra). But with the right combination of scripting and casting, this movie could be better than Tomb Rader, which turned into a 2 movie franchise (and counting). Joss Whedon has proven himself as a credible writer and director. I think he understands the shoes that he has to fill I trust that he will not mess up this movie.


You have to realize that it is not the WB's choice as to who does and who does not get top billing in a movie. This is a negotiable thing. A big time actor or actress can leverage top billing based on their status (i.e. they can say "I won't do the movie unless I get top billing and that's it"). If they go with an unknown, they may not have to deal with this, but of course that all depends on who makes up the rest of the cast (remember I had said the Marlon Brando got top billing for Superman 1).

To summarize (and emphacise) my point. Wonder Woman is an iconic figure. Any character that has survived more than 40 years in the comic books with their own title has acheived that status. Yes it will be dificult to do a superheroine movie, but if it s done right (with the proper balance of scripting and casting) a successful film franchise can be pulled off although the Wonder Woman character bears enough renown that it does not need a famous actress to play the lead role.

Dno


it seems like your thinking is much like Singers when it came to Superman.......NO known or semi-known actors whatsoever......only unknowns should be considered?? Doesn't make sense.....i want knowns and unknowns competing for the role......in head to head competitions and auditions......then and ONLY then will the true actress who was meant to play WW will be declared.... legitimately!

[batdude]

Of course not! If she can change her accent from the one she used in That Nick Cage movie, Then it could work.

This one is not from the Monk.

[pimpernel]

Whether you feel like fighting it or not, could people who acknowledge the aproximate age that Whedon has said the actress is going to be, contribute additional ideas for that age range as I initially asked before being lied about and misinterpreted ad nausium. And then maybe the mods will allow for a seperate thread and/or poll for discussion of that group of actresses that go along with the reality of the filmmakers plans.

Dude you are an ass. I've shown twice now by qouting your own posts that i've never lied about you... just get over it and stop bellyachin.

[pimpernel]

this reminds me, I need to find a pic I found recently of jordan bayne. She is toned and I found out also knows and teaches martial arts. so far I'm liking what I'm finding out about her and she has the physical ability to do the stunts and fight scenes herself.

now... gotta dig for that pic :)

I've been finding it hard to find any pics of Bayne. There are like two decent ones online... her agent is seriously dropping the ball here cos with just a wee bit of pushing she could be a total fan fave and actually be in with a shot. :rolleyes:

How old is Bayne BTW? I never thought to check. :o

[pimpernel]

Good eye. I really like this pic. Only problem is I get the girl vibe from the rest of them.

Thats a big nay for Kruger. She doesn't look it and she is crap. Ironically i just watched Wicker Park last night and she sucked ass... same way she was the second worst thing about Troy. She is just horribly bland.

[pimpernel]

I'm bored... day off... so i did some checking and...

Rhona Mitra is 29
Jaime King is 26

Which rules them both out. Seriously this early twenties thing sucks ass. Do you guys realise exactly how young this is gonna make WW look?

Maybe something like Lynda Carter did when she made her first Wonder Woman season at 24?

What is so difficult about the concept of an origin movie necessitating an actor who looks like a hero when they're just starting out? Or maybe you'd have liked Michael Beihn to play Spider-Man for Jim Cameron. That comes from the same school of thought that can only imagine a milf-type actress as Wonder Woman.

If a 22 year old actress is cast, and the normal trilogy format is followed, (with the likely/hopefully successful movie that Whedon can make) she'd be 25 in the middle of her run as Wonder Woman, just as Lynda Carter was (filming her 3 seasons at 24,25, and 26 respectfully)

[The Sage]

She looks the part, at least to me. As for her acting, I've only seen her in Troy, so I need to explore her work a bit more.

(And for those who will inevitably claim that I'm choosing an actress based on her looks and not her acting ability, notice that I never said she was my choice and that I was just asking what people thought. :p)

It's not about casting a milf-type actress, it's about casting an actress who looks like a woman. Why? Because the name of the character is Wonder Woman. Why is that hard to understand. Casting an early 20s actress leaves the chance of having an actress who looks more like a teenager than a woman. As for looking like a hero when they're starting out, notice that WW looked like a woman when she started out, not a teenager.

As for the normal trilogy format, they could easily do the format with a late 20s to mid 30s actress. Wesley Snipes began the Blade trilogy at age 35, wrapped it up at 42. Christian Bale is 31 years old, by the time the Batman trilogy with him ends he'll be in his late 30s, and he's playing Batman in the beginning of his career. Age really has little to do with showing a hero starting out.

[pimpernel]

You actually go out of your way to be disagreeable don't you?

OK lets play along.

Maybe something like Lynda Carter did when she made her first Wonder Woman season at 24?

She is the exception to the rule. Dude i've spent all morning looking for decent actresses that age and you know the extent of my list so far? Jessica Biel (22), Jordana Brewster (right on the cusp at 25), and MAYBE Jordan Bayne (i can't determine her age).

Seriously you are so full of hot air... you sit back and talk big but so far you haven't contributed anything... instead of just making a lot of noise how about you go and find me someone that is under twenty-five and looks the part? I keep asking but so far you haven't produced.

What is so difficult about the concept of an origin movie necessitating an actor who looks like a hero when they're just starting out?

Lemme familiarize you with a wee concept called immortality. Wonder Woman is at least two thousand years old when she leaves Paradise Island but to all intents and purposes she looks around thirty. She has looked around thirty snince she first came to America and do you know how old she looked many at least three decades later in Kingdom come? Thirty-one. In thirty years she outwardly aged the grand total of a whole year.
My point? This crap about her having to look young cos its an origin tale is absolutely bogus. You could make twenty movies with Wonder Woman and she would be the same age in the last one as she was in the first.

[ultimatefan]

Oh, a little off-topic... If you´re scared about who´s gonna play WW in the movie, take a look at who COULD have played her in a William Dozier TV project that didn´t take off... It would have made the Adam West show look like Donner´s Superman... http://www.comics2film.com/FanFrame.php?f_id=12233

[pimpernel]

I know i know that would have been so funny... um.. i mean awful. :p

[terry78]

The immortality and perma-31 years age is true enough and all, but that's the real reason why she'd have to be younger to be honest, as if they plan on making this a franchise, if she's an older woman, she's going to look just like that in future sequels...an older woman.

[coast city]

I always thought, WW looke to be in her 40's in Kingdome Come. She certainly didn't look 30.

An Amazon Between Us
(art by Harald Stricker)

I guess this is an article by Harald Stricker, A Bazilian comicbook/comicstrip artist, who decided to give his disseration on the requirements of a Wonder Woman. He starts by introducing him self as an avid superhero comic book reader and expressed his discomfort with the names of actors/actress who would portray the heroes of his infancy. He then drafts some general requirements for an actor/actress who wants to play a role as a comic book hero and then goes on to draft specific requirements for the role of Wonder Woman. In the end he then suggsests some possible candidates for the role.

I tend to be in agreement with his general requirements. I in particular like his requirement that the actor/actress should not be a megalomaniac who wants an extravagant salary. I also like his point about the actor/actress being willing to make a commitment to do follow on films (sequels). His specific requirements for the Wonder Woman candidate are not too much different from what we have seen in this thread since the Whedon interview last week (althought Stricker specifically states that the potential candidate be no more than 25 years old as opposed to being in their early 20's). My only criticism of his article is that after all his bantering about requirements, he offers up some potential (and quite beautiful) candidates that fall outside his maximum requirement for age. The only candidate that actually met his age requirement was Brazillian born supermodel Ana Hickman (go figure).

http://hq.cosmo.com.br/images/artigopremiado/art0003_anahikmann.jpg

I have to give him his props, though, he does do very good manipulations. I would suggest to those of you who have not gone to the link in Antonello's post to go there to see some of his work. Here is a link (http://66.218.71.231/language/translation/translatedPage.php?tt=url&text=http%3a//hq.cosmo.com.br/textos/artigopremiado/artigo_0003_mulhermaravilha.shtm&lp=pt_en&.intl=us&fr=moz2) that is translated from Portugese to English.

yeah..i think Jaime would be a good choice....because she is not a complete unknown and she has some solid experience. she has the look and height and she just has to tone up a bit.

Jordan Bayne

You know, I have tried to look and I haven't been able to find that information (about her age) either. It seems that she is keeping that a close secret. She also seems to have copyrighted most of her images. I do know that she has always wanted to play the role of Wonder Woman for the last 5 years. I remeber seeing her in a poto on her web site posing in a swimsuit similar to the one Lynda Carter wore back in the TV series.

http://www.jordanbayne-online.com/images/wonderwoman/ww-collage.jpg
Jordan Bayne in Wonder Woman Swimsuit

I think I saw this picture 5 years ago or more. I would have to say, if I were going to guess her age, that she is somewhere between 30 and 35 years old. I am sorry, but if they are going to stick with someone in their early 20's I have a very good feeling that she might be too old and is trying to hide her age.

Dno

[batdude]

I think that pretty much rules out Jordan Bayne. because of the same age thing. You know, I'm starting to wish they had made this movie about five years ago.the talent pool was better then. Jaime King? maybe if she bulked up. Kim Smith? on looks alone, yes but I have only seen her in a music video.

[Gratticus]

is it just me, or does every poster from scotland seem like an *******?

anyways, you're an idiot if you think kruger doesn't have the look. she has alot of the same facial features as carter, and her eyes are very piercing. she can look 20 to much older and mature. I thought she was cute in National Treasure, haven't seen her in much else. If you're gonna give Brewster a chance, then why not Kruger? At least Kruger has been in some decent movies.

Yeah I agree, she has the look. Not sure about her acting, but her look is good from the pics I've seen.

I'm a ******* and an idiot cos i don't agree with you? Riiight.

Well anyways you are wrong... her facial features are nothing like Carter's. As to whether or not she looks like WW i guess thats down to personal taste... IMO no she doesn't... you don't have to get your panties in a bunch over that.

IMO also she is a very bland actress... and by your own admission i've seen her in more movies than you and your lasting opinion of her in National Treasure wasn't "she is a great actress" it was "she is cute."

Brewster gets a chance in my book for a) being a better and more interesting actress and b) actually looking like the damn character.

You insulting git. :)

Diane Kruger

Your know, I tried to read pimpernel's post with a Scottish accent and kind of laughed at myself for doing it. I have disagreed with pipernel in the past, but I have to back him up on this one. I you can't say that she looks exactly like Lynda Carter. I think the only thing similar is their noses. Kruger is 5'8" tall and her measurements are 33 1/2-23-34 1/2 (which I think is too small for WW). I understand that she had to gain 15lbs. to do "Troy" and has since lost it back. For the record Lynda Carter is 5'9" and had a measurement of 37 1/2C-25-35 at the time she did the Wonder Woman TV series.

hell no. i couldnt accept her as Helen of Troy (that was a face that launched a thousand ships?!) much less WW. she's no superhero material anyway. she looks like she's gonna break if she sneezes too strong.

besides she's 29 going 30. too old.

hell no. i couldnt accept her as Helen of Troy (that was a face that launched a thousand ships?!) much less WW. she's no superhero material anyway. she looks like she's gonna break if she sneezes too strong.

besides she's 29 going 30. too old.

Ironically in Wicker Park (the remake of L'Appartment) Kruger plays the role that originally was played by Monica Bellucci. She was a poor substitute for Bellucci in that and she would be a poor substitute for Belucci in Wonder Woman too. :p

i'm willing to bet that Whedon's gonna change his mind and start looking for any actress under 30, if he's serious with the kind of quality he wants for the very first WW movie.

I can see a slight resemblance. And I actually think Kruger has a better face for WW than Carter did. I showed my friends the WW Dvd and they said Carter looked like a grandma. She has a chubby, cherub face. Kruger has sharper features, and a stronger jaw, and her eyes are more piercing.

Anyways, I think they're both to scrawny to fill the suit right now. Carter had a nice rack, but her arms and legs were puny.

But how can you deny the fact that she doesn't have the look? I think with a little bulk she'd be perfect. And all those movies you mentioned before all sucked in the first place. She had nothing else to do but stand around and look pretty in Troy. But right now we're talking about look, and she has it. More so than Brewster. And she can look as young as 20, and older when need be.

Anyways sorry about the idiot remark. I take it back.

The thing is its not the muscles that make Wonder Woman strong.

I like Catherine Zeta, as well as Demi Moore for the role.. the height doesn't matter, on screen all of them look tall. Lucy Lawless is great too however the problem is most people will chock the movie down as a b-production if that happens, although I think she is probably the best choice.

Jennifer Connely would have been a great choice in her younger years when she was a sexual magnet, and well rounded. Now she is just another skinny hollywood chick.

I dunno, I think WW has to have a little bit of muscle mass or it's just gonna come off as unbelievable and skanky. I don't want an anorexic ho to play WW. Lucy Lawless, IMO, is perfect, well maybe 10 years ago she'd be perfect. Someone with Lucy Lawless's measurements would be good.

well, it's reasonable to say that you don't know what WW looks like in the first place because you support Jordana Brewster over other actresses who actually resemble the character, supported by actual pictures of the character.

Linda Carter is too skinny. Jordana Brewster is too skinny. She's borderline anorexic looking now. I've only heard terrible things about Brewsters acting. What makes you put so much more faith in her than Kruger? Kruger's filmography is 10x more respectable that Brewsters, AND she resembles the character more. So what standards do you go by?

Oh, I'm scared. I've read enough and seen enough to have a good understanding of the character, and I'm probably just as big of a fan. Don't go thinking you're some kind of elitist now.

3) Carter and Jordana are skinny? Now who is blind? I seriously wouldn't get into an argument about Carter not looking like WW cos the majority of the board will come down on you.

Yes, you complained about Kruger being skinny. While searching for suitable Jordana pics to post, I came across some recent ones where she looks like a toothpick. It was frightening, I didn't know she was THAT skinny. And Carter is scrawny compared to the way WW is drawn in the comics. And if posters come down on me for that, they're hypocritical idiots.

But, needless to say, any actress chosen for this role can buff up.

4) She has a more respectable filmography? So does ORlando Bloom and he can't act for **** either.

Then quit complaining about her being a bad actor, when Jordana Brewster is no friggin' different. I see potential for her as do you. I just don't see how you can find so many complaints about Kruger, when they can all be said about Jordana as well.

http://ia.imdb.com/media/imdb/01/I/21/10/68m.jpg
Diane Kruger

For the record, although Brewster is 4 years younger, she has been in more American films than Kruger (Kruger has been in only 5 American films out of 10 while Brewster has been in 9). Brewster will be in 3 films ("Chasing Grace", "Anapolis" and "Nearing Fate") to be released this year versus 2 for Kruger ("Copying Beetoven", and "Joyeux Noël" -- a foriegn film). I think this indicates that Kruger is more comfortable doing foriegn films and that Brewster is most likely a more popular actress (here in America).

As to weather Kruger gets better roles than Brewster, that is an opinionated statement. From what I have been gathering from the other posts she wasn't all that good in the last two movies that she was in ("Troy" and "National Treasure"). I read a review (http://www.splicedonline.com/04reviews/troy.html) on the movie "Troy" and the author of the article mentioned the fact that Kruger (although unremarkebly pretty) did not stand out in a crowded room herself. Just looking at her on the surface, I am sure I can find a lot of women on the street that look better than her and can probable act as well (BTW, I live near Hollywood).

Could we get some comparison pics of Brewster, Kruger and maybe Biel with the darker hair? it's down to those three for me, unless somebody comes up with a new person. I don't think we need to be looking for Lucy Lawless lookalikes. it's true a lot of WW covers looked like her, but that ship has sailed. She doesn't even look like that anymore.

You know, I have tried to look and I haven't been able to find that information (about her age) either. It seems that she is keeping that a close secret. She also seems to have copyrighted most of her images. I do know that she has always wanted to play the role of Wonder Woman for the last 5 years. I remeber seeing her in a poto on her web site posing in a swimsuit similar to the one Lynda Carter wore back in the TV series.

http://www.jordanbayne-online.com/images/wonderwoman/ww-collage.jpg
Jordan Bayne in Wonder Woman Swimsuit

I think I saw this picture 5 years ago or more. I would have to say, if I were going to guess her age, that she is somewhere between 30 and 35 years old. I am sorry, but if they are going to stick with someone in their early 20's I have a very good feeling that she might be too old and is trying to hide her age.

Look, you've got to realize that those images are at least 5 years old. I remember seeing the one of her in the WW swimsuit when I was living in another house (and that was before 2000). She has got to be in her 30's by now (mabe closer to 35).

I did some research on the web and found an article from the Knoxville Sentinel (http://www.jordanbayne.com/media/articles/Pickle.htm) (June 4, 2000). It mentioned the fact that Bayne was hooked on the power of acting when she got to see Zoe Caldwell in the 1982 Clarence Brown Theatre production of "Medea". Now assuming that this presentation was in 1982, and (I'm being really nice here) assuming she was 5 years old when she saw the play, that would put her at 28 (which I don't believe). It would be surprizing if a 5 year old could remember seeing such a play and know one of the lead actresses in such detail.


Picture from one of Jordan's Fan Sites (http://www.jordanbayne-online.com/)
(Note the wrinkles on her face)

In conclusion, I am not changing my opinion on her age. I think she is too old and is trying to hide her age from the general public.

Surely you are not serious (I guess that's what you get from a WWE fan). In my opinion, Chyna would be lucky if she got a part as an extra in the movie. If you check one of my previous posts (http://www.superherohype.com/forums/showthread.php?p=5292888#post5292888) you will see what I wrote about her.

In conclusion, I am not changing my opinion on her age. I think she is too old and is trying to hide her age from the general public.

Got to agree. I spoke to her agent (a lovely woman, very helpful) and she flat out refused to tell me Jordan's age. Personally i don't care... i think she would be great anyway... but Joss is going wih this dumbass early twenties thing apparently... which means we have to pass up at least four PERFECT candidates and start scraping the barrel with ****ing dreck like Diane I-Couldn't-Act-If-You-Held-A-Gun-To-My-Head Kruger.

Upcoming Supermodel Kim Smith

I see that you have a good eye for beauty. Did you know that Kim Smith and Jessica Biel have the exact same birth date (March 3, 1983)? She is quite beautiful but, as far as I am concerned, has yet to prove her self as an actress.

I know that she was (subtilely) in the Nsync video "Bye Bye Bye" and was Drina, the new face of Hadair Cosmetics in "Catwoman" but she had no lines. As far as I am concerned the jury is still out on this woman until we can see her act (and speak) in a film. She is supposed to be in an upcomming picutre titled "The 9th Passenger" that is in production right now. Let's see if she has a significant part in the film.

Dno

[pimpernel]

Wait... the 9th Passenger not only has Kim Smith but also Katherine Heigl, Jaime King, and Alexa Davalos? Damn i gotta see this. ;)

Um... back on topic my only concern with Kim Smith is her acting. Never seen her act and the former model thing doesn't bode well... but if she can pull it off then why not? They should definately give her an audition anyways to find out if she has got the stuff. I'd kinda prefer some more meat on her too tho. :p

[Phantomex]

I'd vote Chyna!

I'd vote no.

I think that deep down inside pimpernel wanted Jennifer Connely. At one time (about 5 or six years ago when I first started looking for the next WW on a whim) I thought she was a good candidate. I found out about Catherine Zeta Jones around that time and it took me a while (like a year or two) to appreciate her beauty and acting skills. I also found out that Jordan Bayne was desperate about getting the part then.

[superheromovies]

just curious but did you ask the webmaster if you could take their main images? I could have sworn I saw a copyright on that thing, as in federal copyright....? posting mag images is one thing, outright stealing images from a site crosses the line dude.


Look, you've got to realize that those images are at least 5 years old. I remember seeing the one of her in the WW swimsuit when I was living in another house (and that was before 2000). She has got to be in her 30's by now (mabe closer to 35).

I did some research on the web and found an article from the Knoxville Sentinel (http://www.jordanbayne.com/media/articles/Pickle.htm) (June 4, 2000). It mentioned the fact that Bayne was hooked on the power of acting when she got to see Zoe Caldwell in the 1982 Clarence Brown Theatre production of "Medea". Now assuming that this presentation was in 1982, and (I'm being really nice here) assuming she was 5 years old when she saw the play, that would put her at 28 (which I don't believe). It would be surprizing if a 5 year old could remember seeing such a play and know one of the lead actresses in such detail.

A couple of weeks maybe... when Mirko gets back from holiday.

The trouble with polls is you find a new actress every week so unless you make a new poll every week they are meaningless. Its best to maybe just have a casting thread without the poll.

Yeah, she's 59 and doesn't look very imposing for the role....even in her early days. :o

Not sure about Jessica Paré. In some pics she looks workable but in others really girly. Dunno. Plus her acting was pretty crap in Wicker Park... but i guess she wasn't in that enough for me to really judge her.

For the record i can't sleep and she is in some old horror movie on TV right now... pretty imposing actually... and with cloning techniques she could be fresh and new in a matter of... ooh... twenty five years or so. :p

[BT18]

I think it's time for a new poll with updated WW picks, since Joss Whedon has ruled out older women to play WW....

I suggested the same thing several pages back, with a handful of actresses and a request for more, and then everyone just started attacking me and/or lying about me.

It's apparently impossible to tell the difference between ; 1- a suggestion for a poll with some choices to get the list started plus a request for more, and 2- Someone "taking" a poll.

One person I got attacked for simply including in a bunch of actresses who fit the criteria, not pushing for as the choice, is Mandy Moore.

Simply because it was rumored (in greater than message board posting credibility) that Joel Silver was interested in getting her for the role.

[BK]

Well if this film was back in the 60's, and she can look imposing then I'd say she'd be good. It's just that in the pics I've found of her, she seems to have those pouty "aww...just look at me...I'm so cute!" kind of lips. :o

[pimpernel]

Mandy Moore has never been rumoured by any credible site i've seen. And she didn't meet one very important criteria: the ability to act.

1) I've never seen her rumoured... how can you dispute that? Are you gonna tell me what i have and have not seen now? I'm not trying to be an ass here... if you have a link or something then post it... otherwise don't expect anyone to believe you.

2) I think you will be hard pressed to find many people here that will say she can act... so again how am i wrong?

This is getting tiresome. Aren't you just a wee bit fed up of always trying to pick a fight with me? You suggested Kim Smith earlier... i agreed with you... what more do you want? I'm not gonna kiss your ass and agree with every wee thing you say.
Now i've asked you before and i'm gonna ask you again: can you just try to be an adult please and drop this petty fighting? I tell you what... i've asked you nicely twice now so if i get any more crap from you i'm just gonna say screw it and bring in a mod... sound fair?

I wouldn't put much stock in those tho. A lot of rumours like that on the net are started just cos such-and-such an actress is currently "it" and is being hyped all over the place.

This isn't just online gossip stuff. An aquaintance of mine has worked in (interned for a while and then got hired) for the bookers at a well known talk show and alot of the people he hangs out with work in similar fields. He likes gossiping about first hand celebrity dirt whether people listening want to hear it or not.

The only times I tend to pay attention is when a famous hot chick is involved, that's why I remember the thing about Jordana Brewster.

I guess that would make you just as guilty since you reposted my message wouldn't it? I didn't actually take that image. All I did was paste a link (URL) to it. If the web master wanted to, all he would have to do is either remove the file, rename the file, or shut down his website (which it think he/she won't do) and the image would dissappear. Anyway, they are getting free advertisement out of it since the address to the website is pasted all over the image. In the meantime I am writing a message to the U.S. Copyright Office to inquire about our enbedding of images into our posts. There may be more than just me who are in violation of copyright laws (some of which may be immune since the are posting from outside the United States). If I find that I am in violation, I will remove the image from my previous post.

If Joss is even slightly good at his job he will cast whoever is best for the job regardless of what she is like as a person... thats why people like Robert Downey Jr and Val Kilmer continue to get work.

Pimpernel,
I know you are from Scottland but why aren't you pushing Jennifer Ellison?

A few reasons...

1) She doesn't look the part.

2) She isn't a very good actress... i'm basing this on three years of work on Brookside rather than a few scenes in Phantom Of The Opera.

3) She is made almost entirely of plastic.

Hehe... i just think she is bad... maybe as Cheetah tho. :p


B-I-N-G-O B-I-N-G-O B-I-N-G-O and Bingo was his name-o.

It may have been discussed a lot but...don't you like Manuela Arcuri?
Aside from Whedon point of view and considerations.

Its not that i don't like her... physically she is perfect and i could look at her all day... its just i'm not sure about her acting and i think that should be the most important thing. If she can act then with those looks give her the role.

I have suggested that actress/model several times on this thread and not to many people seem interested. I think she is beautiful, but the question is weather or not the powers that be, and the English speaking public want a Wonder Woman that speaks with an accent.

I got no problem with an accent so long as its her own accent... i don't wanna hear an actress attempt a fake accent cos those sound stupid mostly.

Manuela Arcuri

Seriously though, I actually saw her in the movie "Mad Love" which is the English subtitled version of the Spanish film "Juana la Loca" ("Giovana la Pazza" in Italian). Manuela played Aixa-Beatriz, a Moorish belly dancer who has an afair with Archduke Fernando de Austria, the husband of Juana de Castilla, the queen of Spain. Aside from the fact that she did this exotic belly dance and was in what would be called an "R" rated sex scene, she caught my attention because for a supporting cast member she had a somewhat significant part in the movie. She hipnotized the character of Ferdinand so well that he convinced his wife, the queen, to add her to her consort of chamber maids -- it's a good film, though, and worth renting. After watching the film I decided to do some research on the web of the actress and found that she looked like she could be a good candidate for the Wonder Woman role (considering height and appearance) with her Mediteranean look.

http://scd.mm-b.yimg.com/image/1406475982
Manuela Arcuri

Apparently she is Itally's answer to Catherine Zeta Jones (relatively speaking) from what I gather. She has done several films (mostly in Itallian) over the last 10 years and a TV series titled "Carabineri" (or "Police) and is not afraid to take off her top for the camera. Unfortunately she is 28 years old and is most likely falling out of the Whedon age range.

Um... Jordan Bayne has only a couple more film credits than Brandon Routh... no actor is truly 'unknown'... just... inexperienced...

And I'm the last person call for comics purity, but Jennifer Ellison is no Wondy... her faces is too short, the lack of length and jawline keeps her from being able to carry that superheroic power at a glance... she's cute, and there's nothing wrong with actresses getting plastic surgery, but she wouldn't be as imposing as a hero as, say Connelly or Jordan(a)

...And I'm the last person call for comics purity, but Jennifer Ellison is no Wondy... her faces is too short, the lack of length and jawline keeps her from being able to carry that superheroic power at a glance... she's cute, and there's nothing wrong with actresses getting plastic surgery, but she wouldn't be as imposing as a hero as, say Connelly or Jordan(a)

Jennifer Ellison, the Movie!

just curious but did you ask the webmaster if you could take their main images? I could have sworn I saw a copyright on that thing, as in federal copyright....? posting mag images is one thing, outright stealing images from a site crosses the line dude. I guess that would make you just as guilty since you reposted my message wouldn't it? I didn't actually take that image. All I did was paste a link (URL) to it. If the web master wanted to, all he would have to do is either remove the file, rename the file, or shut down his website (which it think he/she won't do) and the image would dissappear. Anyway, they are getting free advertisement out of it since the address to the website is pasted all over the image. In the meantime I am writing a message to the U.S. Copyright Office to inquire about our enbedding of images into our posts. There may be more than just me who are in violation of copyright laws (some of which may be immune since the are posting from outside the United States). If I find that I am in violation, I will remove the image from my previous post.

Dno
Just for the record, I did receive a response from the U.S. Copyright Office. They said that under U.S copyright laws only the owner of the copyrighted image would have the right to reproduce or publicly display their image and that I could be in violation. The only exceptions are if the reproduction is for educational purposes or if it is with written concent of the owner of the image. Unfortunately I did not do either of these and I appologize and have removed the image from my post as promised. Since there are no international copyright laws I can not speak for those of you who originate their messages from outside the U.S. They are subject the the laws on their home soil.

Dude don't worry about it. I emailled Bayne's agent a couple of days ago to ask if she had any more pics hidden away... basically she just pointed me to the same ones you posted and told me to feel free to use them... i wouldn't worry about copyright i think she would be cool with it.

BTW she also said Bayne is in the process of having new pics taken and she will keep me posted. I got a free autograph too. :up:

I think that pimpernel was refering to Paz Vega (29) in that post. I think that this (Amanda Tousch) is a mystery woman. One of many that will be poping up and I have this strange feeling that we will see several more (maybe I am going crazy or something). I just have that feeling.

Yea, I agree with pimpernel on this one (again http://www.superherohype.com/forums/images/smilies/cool.gif). Not because of the photo above, but because she is 5'7" tall. When I was growing up, I played different sports (like baseball, basketball, and American football). One common theme I always heard from my coaches was that "You can't coach height". The ideal Wonder Woman should be 5'11"; tall. I know that it is hard to find an actress that tall, but they are out there and we should be shooting for that. It think the lower limit on the height should be no less than 5'8";. I realize that someone in the past posted the fact that super models should not apply. I am begining to change my opinion on that. I am begining to think that that may be the only type of person that can fit the role (and the measurements).

that she is methinks :up:. hence if not for the age issue she's the perfect WW, she has everything folks here are hankering for (ok, so maybe she needs a little work on the bust area but its nothing that a little creative placement of the push up bra wont fix ;))

btw, did you see her in "The Phantom" starring Billy Zane? there was one scene where she carried the other actress over her shoulder and dropped her onto the chair. it was one whole continous scene (no cut): walks in the door with the actress over her shoulder, walks right up to where the camera was and dumped the lady onto the chair. i dunno if she was carrying a dummy, i didnt think so because the dummy/actress started moving as soon as she was deposited on the chair. i was shocked to see that Zeta-Jones was that strong. she was breathing heavily after that "stunt" so i'm thinking its real. the other actress was no shortie, she was roughly her height and build too.

I always pushed for the best actress first... thats why i was so keen on Connelly... awesome actress with the perfect look... but the thing is lately everyone has had to lower their standards since Joss said he is going after actresses in their early twenties... i've scoured the net and i can only come up with a couple of actual proven actresses in that age range that fit the physical requirements... having exhausted the good actresses we are now on to less proven ones... which sucks... but thats what happens when you lower the age range.

Thanks, pimpernel. Actually, Superheromovies can't get over the fact that I challenged him when he said that Bayne was not over 30 and he/she had to throw a cheap shot at me by accusing me of a (possible) copyright infringement. Look, let's not get it twisted here, you were wrong! If Bayne were 5 years old when she saw that play in 1982, then she would have been 19 when she did Poltergeist the Legacy back in 1996. If that is the case, then what happened to the 4 months she spent in London, the time she spent in college, or the 5 years that she spent studying acting after she left high school and before she got the part (as the article (http://www.jordanbayne.com/media/articles/Pickle.htm) said)? If we assume she was 18 after she got out of high school and we assume she only spent 1 semester (4 months) before dropping out of college. When we add the 4 months of time spent in London and the 5 years she spent taking acting classes, that would make her 23-24 years old at the time she got the part for Poltergeist the Legacy (in 1996) and 32-33 years old now (and that's giving her the benefit of the doubt as to her age when she saw that play back in 1982). Don't give me any of your BS about being rude or crossing the line because it's not going to change the facts. I am more than likely correct by saying that Jordan Bayne is between 30 and 35 years old and I am not changing my point of view.

I love her to bits and behind Connelly and Bellucci she would have been my dream casting choice for this but you are right... none of her sites give her age and when i asked her agent i was told "girls don't tell" which is pretty suspicious. I don't know why she doesn't want anyone to know her age but thats her business so i respect that... but you just have to look at her pictures to see she has gotta be around thirty.

Guys, forget Jordan Bayne. If we absoulutely have to have an unknown, Joss is right, go younger. I could see older for a few of the names, but not a basically unknown girl.

[superheromovies]

Joss isn't always right and if the fans want a woman to play the part, we can darn well change his mind about a teenager. I've seen it done in other movies.

I didn't see a challenge, I just saw you use something that is copyrighted and know for a fact that other boards have been torn down by folks when copyrighted material was used without permission and I asked, no one here has permission to post them. So forgive me if I'm looking out for the board, it had nothing to do with Bayne's age, it had to do with seeing damn good boards torn down cuz someone was breaking the law without thought to the possible consequences.

and where in the world did I say she was 5 years old? I think you have me confused with someone else. again, I was dealing with the material, not the age subject, simple as that. keep your point of view, I wasn't discussing it :)

she was in phantom of the opera and recieved rave reviews for her preformance, so she has the acting chops. She could work on the appearance a bit to make herself look more like wonderwoman.

hmmm... does she have a web site? right now, with this pic, she just doesn't do it for me. I just can't see WW pouting like that.... and darned if she doesn't look like that Victoria Winters gal from the 1990s Dark Shadows show ;)

Daddy like. Finally you do something right, Pimp. :)

I love her smile and high cheekbones.

YES! Perfect Looks. Can She Act?

...and where in the world did I say she was 5 years old? I think you have me confused with someone else. again, I was dealing with the material, not the age subject, simple as that. keep your point of view, I wasn't discussing it :)

You never did. I said "if" (as in lets pretend) she was 5. I am sure that you read my previous post (http://www.superherohype.com/forums/showthread.php?p=5371679#post5371679) that started this whole discussion. We actuall don't know for shure how old Bayne was when she saw the play, but based on the information given in the article, you can get within a couple of years of her age.

Furthermore if you are so concerned about people breaking copyright laws, why are you only singling me out only? There are a lot of other posters who have been breaking the rules far longer than (allegedly) I have (if I have). You should have made that a general statement to all the posters admonishing them of the copyright laws and the ramifcations if they are violated. This only convinces me that you were slighting me because I challenged you.

Joss isn't always right and if the fans want a woman to play the part, we can darn well change his mind about a teenager. I've seen it done in other movies.

I don't think that it will be all that easy. First of all, I do not believe that all the fans necessarily want someone over 30 and most likely are tolerant of someone in their early 20's anyway (BTW I don't think that Whedon ever said anything about using a teenager). There have been a slew of actresses who have gotten their start who where in their eary 20's (that is usually when they start). I don't even think that it is only Joss Whedon that wants someone in their early 20's for the role either. I think its Joel Silver and the WB that most likely wants that as well (for business reasons as well as others). Also going with someone ouside of 25 for the role of Wonder Woman is sort of breaking a tradition that started with Lynda Carter (who was 24 whe she took the role). I will discount Cathy Lee Crosby (http://www.amazing-amazon.com/cathy/wwcathy-4.jpg) (who was 30 when she played WW) since a lot of fans do not consider her to be austere. I am not sure what you have in mind by trying to convince Whedon, but it seems like by the way these later posts have been going on this thread Whedon has already started changing the way we are thinking now.

I don't really object to her on physical grounds at all. Or what she's capable of as an actress. But she's not even in her 20's yet (she'll turn 19 in September) and it might sound like I'm beating a dead horse because I said the same thing almost about Jordana Brewster, but her reputation as a mean, demanding, stuck-up bi-atch is way worse than both Gellar and Brewster. I really wish I didn't know this crap, but it's the concequence of being well aquainted with people who think it's their goal in life to know the dirt on young Hollywood just because they work in show biz and are young. You'll probably find evidence of it online somewhere (not cold hard proof obviously) but her reputation is so strong it's got to have been posted about somewhere.

[The Guard]

Emmy Rossum's gorgeous. But no. You don't really want Wonder Woman to look like a deer in the headlights, do you?

[Super_Ludacris]

Saw Jordana Brewster on Conan last week, Man I forgot she was kinda nice looking

I haven't... which ones?

[pimpernel]

YES! Perfect Looks. Can She Act?

I think... she has been in about six movies so far... the only one i've seen is UNderworld in which she had a non-speaking part. I think six movies plus that look should be enough to get her an audition tho at least.

[pimpernel]

Emmy Rossum is way too fragile looking... might as well cast Audrey Tautou.

I just saw Underworld last night and I guess I over looked her. I better watch it again.

LOL she is in it for about twenty seconds... she gets killed on the train. :p

Mabe she could get 20 seconds in the WW movie as a Amazon stand in. I can not say that she is ugly (she is quite beautiful) but she just doesn't look like WW to me. I understand that she is going to be in the sequel to "Underworld" called "Underworld: Evolution". I wonder how they are going to bring her character, Amelia, back from the dead?

Well as i understand it theres a lot of flashback in that movie so i'm guessing thats how... even Bill Nighy is back in it.

[Super_Ludacris]

Charisma Carpenter...I'm not buying the 20's Actress spin there telling us

Underworld: Part of
a Trilogy
(click to enlarge)

After doing a little reasearch on the web, I found that the director, Len Wiseman, envisioned it ("Underworld") to be a trilogy with the third installment being a prequel. I am looking forward to seeing the next two films. Beckinsale is a good actress and looks pretty hot in leather.

Underworld sucked (no pun intended)

[superheromovies]

you're the only one that I have seen that's taken someone's created web site image, not a pic they post for photos or images from magazines, you took a created piece of work that was for the web site alone, not something that was put on the web in general for a fashion shoot, which I clearly stated in prev post, so perhaps you're singling this out to fight, since you've neglectled to notice that part of my post. There's a big difference between the two. stick with the photos or something like everyone else is doing.

and here's a thought to gear towards that's related to this thread and even Joss admits to it. He always throws up a smoke screen of sorts before casting his things. what if tossing out a teenager for the role is nothing more than the usual smoke screen he uses?

Furthermore if you are so concerned about people breaking copyright laws, why are you only singling me out only? There are a lot of other posters who have been breaking the rules far longer than (allegedly) I have (if I have). You should have made that a general statement to all the posters admonishing them of the copyright laws and the ramifcations if they are violated. This only convinces me that you were slighting me because I challenged you.

I thought it was a good re-interpetation of the classic movie moster genre that seems to be popular nowadays (ala "Van Helsing" and "Blade"). I take it you are not really a fan of that type of genre are you?

I don't think it sucked, persay, but it was a big let down. It could have been way better than what it was
