7 Actresses Who Were Almost Wonder Woman
3. Megan Gale
George Miller’s Justice League: Mortal was very close to becoming a reality.
In 2008, the movie was only a couple of weeks away from shooting, with props and sets built by Weta Workshop, and costumes created and fitted for all the cast - including Megan Gale as Wonder Woman.
Why was the project shut down? Many factors, such as the budget ballooning to $300 million and worries of there being two cinematic Batmen in existence - a notion almost laughable as, at the time of writing, there are currently two movies featuring at least THREE incarnations of Batman currently in production.
All was not lost for Gale, though. Through the Justice League: Mortal experience, she met George Miller, who created the role of Valkyrie for her in Mad Max: Fury Road. She is also happy that at least she managed to get a few pictures of her in the iconic get-up.
"We were just doing costume trials," said Gale speaking to Ninemsn, "We just did full dress, costume and hair and wardrobe, and we did a photoshoot. But I'm glad that we got that far into production that we had those photos!'
