Wonder Woman is an adaptation of the popular comic book character in the DC Universe.
A New Wonder Woman Movie?
The Wonder Woman Movie is still a ways off, so there are few details at present. The film has gone through more writers and directors than Gigli. In some ways, the character should be easy to make into a film, but with how iconic she’s become, it may prove difficult for a movie studio to appropriately adapt the comic for the screen.
Wonder Woman Trailer
Nope, but I’m tempted to throw in a Linda Carter moment in here just to throw you off. Ah heck, I just can’t help myself now. I’m sure the Wonder Woman 2013 Movie will be better than this, or can it be? How can you top this moment in time?
The Scoop
Joss Whedon was attached a few years ago to write and direct the film, but he left in 2007 due to creative differences with the studio. As of now, it looks like Matthew Jennison has been charged with writing the screenplay, although who knows if his script will make it to the screen. Various actresses have been rumored for the role, such as Kate Beckinsale, Sandra Bullock, and Beyonce. It cannot be Beyonce. I will freak out. I have nothing against her, and I’m not some racist ass, but she is not right for the role. This shouldn’t be about making a politcal statement. It’s a comic book film. Just make it good.
Who’s It For?
Probably PG-13.
Movie Release Date
Wonder Woman stinks up the theaters 2013.
Who’s In It?
No Confirmed Casting as of yet although rumours of Jessica Alba and Lindsay Lohan have been thrown around. Seriously? Lohan is hot right now, she has the chest to fill the upper role of the vivacious wonder woman.. but I don’t see it.
Interesting Fact
There are various backstories for Wonder Woman, but the one I’m most familiar with named her mother Hippolyta, who was killed by Herakles in an ancient myth, then he stole her belt.
What’s Good About It?
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again. If you get a good director with a good script, most comic book characters can be adapted for the big screen.
What’s Bad About It?
I see Wonder Woman being especially hard for Hollywood to make, as they’ll see her as a model for feminism or some such nonsense, when she isn’t. The best possible storyline for the film will actually serve to undercut the principles of militant feminists. For example, Wonder Woman, the Ambassador of the Amazons who has been told her entire life that men are bad, visits with the rest of the world and learns that men aren’t so bad, she falls in love (with a dude no less) and fights a villain who is most likely female. So a chick will be the bad guy, and she’ll learn to love a man. Not exactly the man-hating storyline that many are looking for.
Our Clever Prediction
I’m thinking this one may be even further away than 2013. I think the studio will wait for the sequel to The Dark Knight and probably even the next Superman film before giving this the green light. DC hasn’t had the same success as Marvel, so they’ll more than likely be more careful before throwing $100 million into this project.
Wonder Woman is going to be something terrible, you can count on it.


















I wanna be WONDER WOMAN!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH lol!!!
THEY COULD MAKE BEYONCE WONDER WOMAN SISTER NAMED NUBIA AND I WISH THEY CAN HAVE CLOIS LEACJMAN AS THE QUEEN AND OR DEBRA WINGER AND KATE BECKINDALE AS WONDERWOMAN . I CAN SAY THAT I’M OVER FIFTY
AND BEEN READING WW SINCE I WAS 9 YRS OLD . BECAUSE AFTER THE 60′S AND 70′S , IF VLYNDA CARTER SHOULD PLAY THE QUEEN NOW
BECAUSE OF AGE .
BUT FOR STEVE TREVOR HAVE ASHTON KUSCHNER PLAY THE ROLE OR
LYLE WAGNER TO BPLAY GENERAL BLANKERSHIP. FOR ETTA CANDY PART
SHOULD BE UNKNOWN ACTRESS.
THEY SHOULD MAKE BEYONCE LOOK WHITE AND MAKE HER PLAY DIANA -_-
I have been anticipating this movie for some time. I loved her in the 70s; loved her more in the Justice League cartoon.
But I disagree about her not being “a model for feminism.” She was created by William Marston as a “distinctly feminist role model whose mission was to bring the Amazon ideals of love, peace, and sexual equality to a world torn by the hatred of men.” (Library Journal) It’s a message needed as much today as in 1941.
I’m as concerned about the casting as the plot. Like many early GenX’ers, I was a huge Linda Carter fan. I just can’t think of any actress who can do credit to that legacy. As much as I like Sandra Bullock and Kitty Beckinsale, I don’t picture them as the Amazonian princess. (And you’re 100% right about Beyonce, by the way.)
We need someone both imposing and beautiful. Jayne Kennedy, back in the day, might have pulled it off. Superman should be able to kick her butt…maybe Batman 2 or 3 times out of 5…but that’s it. Any other foe, she’s crushing like a freight train, and she has to look the part.
Who would you cast…seriously?
