Who Should Gal Gadot Play In The New DCU?

[Micah Sweet]

I am sure you are all aware that there is a lot of negative talk around Gal Gadot for reasons that we do not need to nor are permitted to get into here. But yet another Facebook post about casting a new Wonder Woman for the New DCU had me realize I have yet to see a related question that could actually be interesting to contemplate: who could Gal Gadot play in the New DCU? Obviously we have Jason Momoa coming back as Lobo. Is there another character of significant if not extravagant profile whom Gadot would be eminently suited to play?

You can also answer this question for anyone else who has already appeared in a DC movie. Other than maybe Cavill or Miller.

Are they rebooting the DCCU then? I hadn't heard that, but I'm not surprised. It hasn't been as successful at the end of the day as they'd hoped, and full continuity reboots are still all the rage in the DCU(s).

There's some chatter about the saudi's buying WBD and going back to synder, but WBD today told comcast to raise their bid. I'm sure snarf would make a thread about it but there's politics involved if you go further than what i've mentioned.

While I basically think Johnny Depp should never get work again, I thought Branagh casting him as the @$$hole victim in Murder on the Orient Express was perfect.

The choice is up to Gunn, of course, but who would you keep as cast from the pre-Gunn DCU films? I’m guessing Robbie gets to be Quinn if she wants to be, and of course Cena will carry on, but Xolo Mariduena absolutely nailed it as Blue Beetle as well.

I expect this will be controversial, and I doubt he wants to himself, but I was really looking forward to Clooney having another shot as (a very old) Batman after The Flash.

Rather than a flashback if they ever had a flashforward where they needed an adult Raven I was thinking that she might do well with that role. Raven is a very subdued character (most of the time) but also quite a bit of presence? Also not just a Wonder Woman adjacent character.

Momoa was a great Aquaman, I enjoyed both of his movies.

The movies were fine,

But I hated Momoa as Aquaman.

He seems more like a Lobo, so I'm fine with that.

I wanted someone who would be more like the traditional Aquaman rather than Bro-Aquaman.

Bro-Aquaman was a terrible choice.

AS for Gadot...

Make her Martha Wayne.

Or, if we want a bigger role...

Paula Brooks may work...maybe.
