Goodness she's gorgeous.
Now I'm kind of hoping that she signs up for the same athletic program the guys from 300 went through...

She's hot, thats for sure. Though casting has always been one of Snyder's strong suits. Despite my reservations about Wonder Woman even being in the movie, I hope she does well. Good for her :)

More than that, I hope they absolutely force her to do so. She's rail skinny and doesn't look Amazonian to my eyes at all.

meh...wasn't too excited for this movie...still not now

No need. She spent 2 years in the Isreali Army's athletic program so she's more than qualified!

Researching her background Gal is 28, is a model (Miss Isreal 2004), has appeared in Maxim Magazine (in 2007), and appears to be somewhat known for her role in the Fast & the Furious films (01, 5 and 6).

Were she fresh from that program I'd be more inclined towards agreement, but she's not.

Oh, boy where do I begin?
 

Not only is this casting decision more evidence that The WB is rushing this project, but it also shows that DC is trying to fit all it's eggs into one basket and it's going to hurt them in the long run.

And then it'll be all Wondy's fault.
SEE! We told you a lady in the franchise would fail!

blegh.

No, it'll be WB' s fault for trying to fit all their eggs into one basket.

Is it just me or does she look too skinny and kid-like?

Wonder Woman is an Amazon warrior, she has meat on her bones and actual well toned curves. This girl looks like she could pass as Supergirl instead if she dyed her hair blonde. Or maybe Batgirl.

Does she have any boobs to hold up Wonder woman's breast plate?

Agreed, she looks great. Just needs to get some meat on those bones.

Needs to lay off the cardio and start lifting the weights. WW should look like a Greek Goddess... or at least an Adam Hughes painting:

This...Wonder Woman needs her own flick, she doesn't need to play 3rd banana to Batman and Superman.

EDIT: Probably also the first time a woman's been said to be too SMALL for a movie role....

Yeah, she seriously needs to gain about 100 pounds.

Honestly, I don't care or expect for her to get a bigger build. I get that "thats Wonder Woman" and all, but... I don't know, guys. I mean, she has super strength; a bigger build is a bit redundant. Though I suppose a small-build Superman would be a little strange...

If I grew up believing that Sarah Michelle Gellar is a super-strong and credible fighter, then I'm sure with the right director and right performance we'll buy into whatever is put in front of us.

...Ah, hell. I'm probably just being shallow since I've never found muscular girls attractive and therefor never really liked Wonder Woman "in that way."

Just my rambling thoughts, everyone!

The problem is Wonder Woman is supposed to be a tough and strong looking woman. A woman who would actually hurt you if she punched you in the face.

This actress looks like a toothpick. Like a gust of wind would blow her down. I don't sense any ounce of strength from her.

Wonder Woman is also very womanly with a huge bust and curves and you don't get that without meat on your bones as a paper thin woman.

eeh it doesn't matter to me XD She looks fine :)

same with Megan Fox as April, as long as she does the character justice I don't care who plays her XD

This was my initial concern, too. Honestly, I wasn't super excited Batman was going to appear, I wanted to see a good Superman movie. I fear DC is just trying to play catch up.

I don't mind her. She would need to get a bit bigger if she is going to play an Amazonian. But really I don't want Wonder Woman in the movie. Or Flash or Nightwing or Batman. I wish they would just go ahead and say this isn't a Man of Steel 2 anymore and either call it The Trinity or go ahead and make it the damn Justice Leauge .

I do hope she goes through some training before the movie shooting. A quick google search, sure she looks athletic but not Amazonian fit. As long as she is portrayed taller then both Batman and Superman.

I really hope the costume is a bit more Greek armor like instead of the usual thong costume

*cough*Kristin Kreuk as Chun-li :D

Touche'...

Ugh, than movie still pisses me off. Seriously, what were they thinking?

I've seen that movie about 6 times now. And I don't even like Street Fighter. But it's just so, so worth watching for Chris Klein's performance. It's just genius.

You mean genuinely entertaining, or so bad it's good?

See for yourself.

Just... just legendary stuff. I remember literally needing to leave the theatre cause I was gonna piss myself at the scene at 1:17 in the video. Nothing he said, but just the look he gives that Asian dude. Freaking priceless.

Thunder Thighs are on the move, Thunder Thighs are loose

If it were up to me, I'd sign her up for some CrossFit, but I don't expect her to bulk up. Nearly every badass, butt-kicking, beat-up-huge-men-without-breaking-a-sweat female hero has the same swimsuit model build as a damsel in distress.

See: Avengers, Resident Evil, Underworld, GI Joe, Kill Bill, etc, etc... There are exceptions, I'm sure. But still...

I'm guessing they want every female lead to be eye-candy, and they're afraid guys won't like a powerful-looking woman.

Zack Snyder's got places/programs he can mandate she go to (same places/programs he sent the cast of 300 to, or even Watchmen). Only a question is if they want to go with a muscled/toned Wonder Woman in this or if they're just OK with her as-is.

Though it is shooting rather soon.

Here is Black Nerd's rant about Wonder Woman in the new movie.



And here is Angry Joe's rant on Wonder Woman in the new movie as well.



Angry Joe doesn't like the casting btw.

God, those two are awful.

Yeah...not sure why Black Nerd fells the need to sing now at the top of every episode.

Isn't that a thing now? I've seen a bunch of internet personalities suddenly starting to think they're singers.

Are they even going to mention anything about Wonder Woman's island or backstory in this movie?

I get the feeling she'll just be in Metropolis walking around as "Diana" and slip into a superhero costume with no backstory.

Can't see how they'll explain her to the general public who has no idea who she is. At least with Batman they assume everyone knows his backstory to death, but most people don't know who Wonder Woman is.

Singing aside, I feel like Black Nerd addressed how I feel about this project. This doesn't feel like a sequel to Man of Steel anymore, it feels rushed & cobbled together, it feels like a cry for help. Hell, why not wait til' later to PROPERLY introduce us to Wonder Woman by doing what the Animated movie did.

Linda carter man..... she wasn't a big hulking chick she was alil tall and had big t**s

I'm thinking Superman's massive battle to save the world leads to other superhumans coming out of the shadows, and Batman out of retirement. I'm not expecting Wonder Woman to play a large role. I'm thinking Black Widow in Iron Man 2. She'll get a little exposure, but it's viewer interest that will determine if she gets a film. That's my guess.

RIIIGHT, because it's not like they'll have her work out to get ready for the role...:trolleye:

I too agree with Black Nerd's Rant. With each bit of news we get, this sequel is becoming less and less like a Superman film, and pretty much becoming more and more a Justice League film. And I have to say, I am disappointed that instead of WB making a solo movie for the arguably most iconic super heroine in comic history, they're just sticking her in here, when we already got Batman and Superman and who knows what.

But on the bright side, it'll be nice to finally see Diana on the big screen, so I wish Gadot luck on this and hope she does a good portrayal of her.

And she was a horrible Wonder Woman. Whatever feature film version of WW is arrived at, let's pray it takes no cues from that series whatsoever.
