Justice League: 6 Actresses Who Should Play Wonder Woman
It would take a statuesque, beautiful, strong woman to take the lead of Wonder Woman. Here's 6 choices DC execs need to think about.
An integral part of the planned Justice League movie will be the casting of Wonder Woman. Unlike Marvels The Avengers, DC has the advantage to draw in a very large cast of female fans due to the fact that Wonder Woman is a very important part of Justice League and not just a side character. Black Widow was an important member of Avengers, but the fact she didnt get her own movie proves she wasnt that crucial to the team. If The Hunger Games was any indication it is that a strong feminine protagonist who can be a leader in her own right is a big draw for female fans. However you cant just cast any female Hollywood bad-ass such as Resident Evils Milla Jovovich or Michelle Rodriguez for this ionic part, because they just dont have that Wonder Woman look or attitude (meaning once they're in costume they seem out of place). Wonder Woman has to represent a female who demonstrates strength, an inspiring attitude and provides leadership alongside Batman and Superman. We need an actress who not only has the physically fit figure of Wonder Woman, but someone who is naturally beautiful and can bring a commanding presence to the role. I have not included actresses that are involved somehow in the Marvel universe (i.e. Natalie Portman, Scarlett Johansson etc) because they are probably committed to Marvel. And once youre committed theres no jumping ship.
So here are the 6 Actresses who should play Wonder Woman. Some are well-known, some a bit off the radar, but there's certainly a mix of talent to choose from.
