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.

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.

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....

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.

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 .
