J Lo = Wonder Woman?!

Interesting,

J Lo as WW would not be my 1st or 100th choice, but then again, that's my opinion. If they wanted it to be as successful as Cat Woman, I say go for it. :p

Catherine Zeta-Jones-Douglas is just a bit to exotic for the part (even though I only date exotic women).

Now Jennifer Conelly could pull it off, but I would be concerned on how well she could pull of the bad-a$$ role when needed.

Here's a couple of actresses who I think "might" be able to pull off the roll.

Monica Belluci
Denise Richards
Catherine Bell

In that order.

Oooh, Bass Puppet hit the nail on the head with Monica Belluci... she was wicked cool in Brotherhood of the Wolf, and could take the WW character interesting places with that natural vicious woman-angst that she does so well.

Yeah, she was amazing in Brotherhood of the Wolf (great movie). She's one of my favorite actresses.

Well, I know she's a Greek-Welsh mix, but too exotic for a Greek?

Yes, she can do it, despite the All-American Girl look, but she needs to bulk up. She's too thin.

Meh.

If in order of ascension, meaning last being the best, then yes. But I doubt you mean that.
 


While I admit that it's important that the character Wonder Woman fills out her cleavage fully, I really don't think it's all that important that the actress in the role has the "natural" cleavage to do so. I remember seeing Lynda Carter on a "Circus of the Stars" TV show (or "Olympics of the Stars," or something like that) once while her "Wonder Woman" show was still in its original run. She was in a swimming competition, and I was amazed at how much, uh, smaller she was in real life. The cleavage can be faked easily enough, and naturally-looking enough, that I don't think it needs to be the primary consideration for which actress gets the part.

Pick an actress with some decent acting ability and a reasonable likeness to how Diana Prince looks in the comics (and whose face is reasonably close to Lynda Carter's, because let's face it, she's the yardstick by which many people will be measuring the newcomer to the role), and then worry about a decent script.
