I don't know if I have the creditability to comment on another man's looks (lol) but him and bar rafeli are other Israeli actors I know. And was in the mummy, dues Bigelow, and was the voice of Dr.fate in justice league Unlimited.

Well then, trust me, that man is HOT. As is Gal Gadot. And Henry Cavill. Don't forget Ben. And Amy Adams, too. All burning hot, hot, hot!!!
 
No offense, but I have ZERO idea who this woman is. When putting forth casting choices can we remember to also post a name. Seriously... Who is she?
Lucy fricking Lawless.... she

Seriously Krypton get your head in the game. :o

Cool, but considering this is the Amazon's thread and we should bring up actresses that can be Amazon. I don't think many people here knew Israeli actresses outside Natalie Portman, Gal Gadot and Bar Refaeli.

Really? I have a hard time believing that isn't a picture from some time ago or a recent picture that's been airbrushed and photoshopped within an inch of it's life. I couldn't recognize her in the least.

Also... No. No wink, wink, nudge, nudge, cameos like Lynda Carter or Lawless. Just my own druthers.

I'm hoping that Lynda gets a cameo in a solo WW movie. Maybe not the first, but certainly by the third (yes, WW will get a trilogy, i just KNOW it!). I don't want Lynda for Hipollyta but how about Steve Trevor's mom?

Another actress I'd like to see play Donna Troy is Zoe Aggeliki. She's about 20 yrs old, half-Greek, half-French. Has modeled and acted in several things. Actually, when it seemed the CW project AMAZON was looking for a teenaged Diana, I thought Zoe definitely had the look to play WW, but I must admit I'm not familiar with her acting chops.

Here's to hoping the teams behind these possible films from WB/DCE can actually make a simplified origin for Donna Troy.
 
I really want at least Donna, if not Cassie too, to have grown up on PI with Diana as her big sister. Tons of story twist potential if Diana has siblings. I don't how they'd explain Donna's existence unless the Amazons go out and have sex with sailors, like in the nu52. I wouldn't want Donna formed from clay or have Zeus as a daddy. Diana needs to be unique among Amazons.

Cassie could have grown up in the US, like the comics. Trying to think of young blonde actresses that could play her. Hmmm...
 
Just saw Angie Harmon (age: 41, height: 5' 9") in an interview. With her beautiful looks and deep sultry voice, she reminds me a lot of an older Gal!

That's blonde hair in the Timmverse friend, because he was homaging how Diana's mom was drawn during the classic silver age. Though she was drawn with black hair in the Golden Age.

Finally, read Kingdom Come. At the end, Bruce deduces Diana's pregnancy from the fact that she has lost her virginity and has started aging and getting gray hair.


Actually he deduced because she was getting thicker around the middle and getting fuller hair as women often do during pregnancy but the point is still basically intact.
:yay:
 
She's her clay child!! :argh:

If they were going with the pre-new 52 continuity then you are 100% correct, however it doesn't appear to be the direction the DC Cinematic Universe is choosing or heading in. Diana could sound very much like her mother or even her father to a degree. Additionally, after a lifetime of growing up and being surrounded by a group of people, your voice pattern (pitch, tone and diction) will start to reflect that grouping.
 
I'm not a big Wonder Woman fan so forgive me if these aren't the most commonly used Amazon characters, I've really only seen the character a few times in cartoons when I was young, a few Justice League animated movies and recently I watched the animated solo movie to learn a bit more about the character since it will be a big part of the series of films coming out. I would prefer the "elder" characters be more in the "older sister" age range in comparison to Gal, instead of the "mother" age range. But I'll do alittle of both...

Hippolyta - Lena Headley, Charlize Theron, Rachel Weis, Rhona Mitra, Angie Harmon, Morena Baccarin, Salma Hayek, Leonor Varela, Penelope Cruz, Berenice Marlohe, Nazanin Boniadi, Keira Knightley, Catherine Bell, Naomi Watts

Artemis or Mala - Kristanna Loken, Katheryn Winnick, Ellen Hollman, Rosamund Pike, Yvonne Strahovski, Teresa Palmer, Jessica Marais, Adrianne Palicki, Ali Larter, Jennifer Morrison, Diane Kruger, Alice Eve, Alicia Witt

Nu'bia - Zoe Saldana, Rosario Dawson, Rochelle Aytes, Marsha Thomason, Megalyn Echikunwoke, Bianca Lawson, Gabrielle Union, Yaya DaCosta, Meagan Good
 
really? pike has always struck me as, "motherly". I think she'd make more sense as Hyppolyta.
 
I suspect Amazons will be introduced in this movie considering the fact Wonder-woman is reportedly a big part of the Plot.Theyll possibly be the first Meta-humans revealed to the World

:yay:

Not to get in a nerd fight but the emphasis at that moment was a shot of gray hair on Diana, who was still ageless when we first see her at the story's start. Take another look at the scene. If I am remembering it right, the word ballon of Bruce's observation is in the panel that shows the close up of Diana's hair.


Also... Angie Harmon is only 41? I so thought she was in her mid 40's already.
 
Angie Harmon is not a good choice at all IMO, unless she can sound like Gal. Gal can't be the only Amazon with that accent..
 
I'm sure any competent actress hire could do an accent... Doing it well is another story, true.

Well there was a reason they didn't cast an American, British, Canadian or Australian actress. They may want the amazons to sound like they are form the Region where Thermascrya would be. If I had to cast the amazons I would Mediterranean or Middle eastern actress.

Good point any other famous/capable Middle Eastern actresses can't think of any?
 
I think, unless an actress has show severely limited range (which would beggar why she was cast as The Amazon Queen in the first place..) that doing an accent that mirrors Gal or sounds convincingly alike is a minor concern.
 
Or they don't want the actress' accent to slip and just give the performance. The Israeli like most Middle eastern accents are hard to do with out it sound patronizing. And if want famous actress Mediterranean actress who would be as The mother of Wonder Woman, queen of the amazons I would say Monica Bellucci. She looks like Gadot, has a regal sense about, has a deep voice can and speaks like Gadot,with clam and confidence. Can fool most Americans be the sound.
