J Lo = Wonder Woman?!

Her costume could only work if taken in the intended spirit, but not in form:

It's the part of her traditional amazon-forged battle armor. It's the breastplate, belly protection and hard-leather greaves and boots. When Diana dons her armor for the first time in Perez' WW, she also has shoulder protection, a greek-styled helmet, leather skirt, a white cloak and a whole array of weapons (two-bladed battleaxe, sword, spear, round shield and the Lasso of Truth).

As much as I like Alex Ross' art, a movie version of the costume couldn't be like his paintings. I'd say take Elektra's movie costume, turn the pants into a swimsuit-sized bottom (but still leather), turn the boots into greaves-and-sandals and change the colors to match the comics (red-gold-blue). Add a metal eagle/ww to the breastplate for additional protection and add the tiara as the crown of the themiscyrian princess.

Oh, and Jennifer Garner could work as WW too, just dye her hair black and add blue contacts.

Heck, Jen can play anyone, including the Russian agent The Black Widow.

HELL YEA!!! Although Jen does'nt look the part of WW in my opinion, thats actually one of the adaptions I'm hoping for. Here is my wish list, in order of preference

Dr Strange
Namor
Black Widow
Silver Sable
Wonder Woman
Green Arrow
AquaMan
 

I have a hard time seeing Jennifer Garner as Doctor Strange.

:D

Zeta-Jones would be great, but she's too old. I mean, yeah, she looks awesome, and she can sure act, but I don't know if she could pull off the moves very convincingly these days.

Monica Bellucci? I'd never thought of her. Um, okay. You could cast her as Hamlet and I'd go see her. Heck, you could cast her as an extra two hundred yards back from the camera (but why would you?) and I'd go. Dunno if Bellucci, again, could pull off the moves. Maybe. Ah, who am I kidding? If the entire movie consisted of one shot of her sitting perfectly still doing nothing, I'd be happy.

Denise Richards? Tell me that's a joke. Denise "If I Stop Concentrating On My Next Line My Face Goes Blank" Richards? Please. She couldn't even be a convincing Bond girl -- how on earth is she going to pull off WW?

Angelina Jolie, Jennifer Connelly -- too short. WW's gotta be "statuesque."

Lucy Lawless -- not bad, but she's just not "wholesome" enough. Maybe. She'd be fun to watch, that's for sure.

What about Famke Janssen? I mean, sure, ZERO cleavage, but she's got that impish charm that would serve the part well. But no, insufficient cleavage. Sorry, Famke.

So I think my first choice is Bellucci. Not sure how tall she is but apparently she wears a size 10 shoe (the internet), so she can't be too wee. Yeah. Bring it on.
 

Angelina Jolie, In my opinion, could be the perfect WW. Jennifer Connelly could play her, but I find that she does not seem forceful enough...
Lucy Lawless, Maybe as the bad girl... but not WW.

Charisma Carpenter... great in tv series's, but I dont see her as WW.

Katheren Zeta-Jones... I dont see it.

I am sure there are more actresses...Hmm...

IMO, Jolie is far too cruel in her beauty and creepy in demeanor to play WW. maybe if David Lynch was directing...

Did anyone mention Jeri Ryan yet? How about Martine McCutcheon?

My vote is still Lauren Graham...
 

Catherine is not old. She just like older men.

Jeri Ryan? Either villain or Black Canary.

Lauren Graham? Less Mediterranean.

I'm surprised that cleavage is still one of the main factors. I mean, what's next? Child-bearing waistline? After all, she has to be Greek.

I'm still backing up Jennifer Connelly as WW. Heck, if Keanu can beef up for Speed and Pitt can beef up for Troy, most surely Jennifer can get all-atheltic for WW.

Of course, if the other Jennifer (Garner) got the role, we could just cast Lena Olin (who plays her mother in Alias) as Hippolyta. They both just dye their hair black and wear blue contacts.
 

I also think that Kate Beckinsale would be a good choice.....Or maybe Hollywood will surprise us and cast cast Halle Berry as WW. I mean it's not like she's played comic book characters before right? .....Oh, wait. :p
