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...

Krutch 12-04-2013 12:53 PM

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.

Andrew NDB 12-04-2013 04:53 PM

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....

Cure 12-04-2013 05:43 PM

Yeah, she seriously needs to gain about 100 pounds.

Krutch 12-04-2013 06:06 PM

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!

CyberCubed 12-04-2013 09:40 PM

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.

BabyTurtles 12-04-2013 09:53 PM

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.

Slade 12-04-2013 11:36 PM

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 .
