J Lo = Wonder Woman?!

Here's my input:
1. Sandra Bullock: She deffinitely has the acting ability, but she doesn't have the body. And this is Wonder Woman we are talking about here, the actor needs cleavage.
2. Catharine Zeta Jones: A REALLY good choice IMHO. She has both the talent, and the looks for the role, and I would deffinitely cast her.
3. Lucy Lawless: I don't know about the acting, but she could certainly fill the, er, SHOES.....
4. Monica Lewinsky: She looks the part, but......Scary.
5. Yasmin Bleeth: Perfect for the role if Wonder Woman was a crack whore.

I weep for the future. :(

My pick is Lucy Lawless.

While she would be perfect for it, I don't think it would work - she's already too linked with an altogether different yet similar type of role. It would be like Ian McKellon (sp?) playing Dumbledore.

I think I would like to see Lacey Chabert in the role too. Yes, she fell out of site after Lost in Space but in the last couple of years has been in a number of movies, she is a hottie. ;)
I believe the latest was in Meangirls with Lindsey Lohan.

As for Sandra Bullock, she wowed me in Miss Congeniality. In fact, she was in the running for that Diana Prince role two years ago, or so I hear from various genre news sources.

Jennifer Conelly? Well, she WAS voluptuous, as mentioned earlier regarding the Rocketeer film. I'd give her a shot if she's willing to lose the waif.

Eva Mendes? Don't see it as Diana Prince.

Lucy Lawless? I'd rather cast her as WW's nemesis.

Charisma Carpenter? I'd see her as Wonder Girl (or in my re-imagination, Diana Prince's rival Artemis).

Still, no one can come close Catherine Zeta-Jones.
 

I'll second (or third) Catherine Zeta Jones.
Though I will go against the crowd and say that Jennifer Lopez, with a good script may actually be good for the role.
 




First, I'd lose the Diana Prince secret ID. The movie HAD to be based off George Perez' WW relaunch of 1987.

Many have mentioned that filling the ... er... "eagle" was a pre-req for the job. Well, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Lucy Lawless don't come close to filling that. I remember seeing a photoshoot with Lucy (in her Xena outfit) and that Seven of Nine chick from Star Trek (in her usual tight uniform). Lucy knocks her metal breastplate and says "This is the only way I can compete!"

Eva Mendez could be good.

Of course, Lynda Carter could play Queen Hypolitta nicely! :)
 

I also think Catherine Zeta-Jones and Jennifer Conelly would make fine choices, and J-Lo would be a horrible choice.

Someone else that I think could pull it off that hasn't been mentioned yet is Jessica Biel. She's not a great actress, but she's not bad, and she easily be made to look the part.

I'll reserve judgement on that until after I see Blade: Trinity. Seventh Heaven and Summer Catch aren't all that flattering for her so far. But she just doesn't have the feel for the role IMHO.
