Personally, I don't know anyone who'd do better than Morena. I believe in the Tobey Maguire/Christopher Reeve theory of superhero casting. Find yourself someone who can actually ACT, and then train them to do the asskicking. It's much easier than trying to do it the other way around. And let's face it, Jessica Alba's acting talent is neatly contained in two places directly in front of her...

Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal, Fox!

I didn't mean that Morena is "too white" - just most of the other actresses including Linda Carter. I actually think Morena is more appropriate, since she has a slightly exotic look.

Morena's not quite what I imagine in a warrior woman, but Joss knows how to make slender females into ass-whooping machines. But I would prefer Gina.

I think that's old news. I've read recently that Whedon is only focusing on the script for Wonder Woman and has not even begun thinking about who will play the part.

As for Baccarin, as much as I want her to be Wonder Woman, isn't she a bit short for the role?

Actually I think Joss focusing on the script is old news and this could be new news.

I would love for Morena to get the role and I think Jessica Alba is not a bad second choice, certainly a better choice than any other actress that has been mentioned.

At least they both look like Amazon princesses. Kim Basinger, what where they thinking?

Hmm..perhaps my news is old news.

As hot as Jessica Alba is, she's not the greatest actress. I'd rather have an actress that can act than an actress that's only on the screen for her name.

Bassinger is way off too. I've always thought Catherine Zeta-Jones would make a great Wonder Woman...

I like Jessica Alba. I do. But WONDER WOMAN??? I cannot see it, not even remotely. She doesn't look at all like Wonder Woman in any way. I don't mean hair color or whatever which is easily changed, but when I see Jessica Alba, I pretty much think the opposite of "Amazon Warrior".

I could see Morena as her, though.

Excuse me?!?!?

How much better "trained" can you be than graduating from freakin' JULLIARD, eh???
This girl does NOT need a blibblety-blibblety freakin' COStume or blibblety-blibblety freakin'-HEELS!!!

There is NO DOUBT IN MY MIND: Morena Baccarin could do a better "Wonder-Woman" than ANY ACCTRESS ON THIS GOD-FORESAKEN-'EARTH-THAT-WAS'...

...just in case anyone was wonderin'

If the Powers-That-Be don't cast Morena Baccarin as Wonder-Woman®, I will know that they are such "stupid, inbred stacks of meat" that I won't be able to bear watching the damn thing.

But really, I can definetly see Morena in the whole wavy hair, flowing cape, high heels role. I just don't want people getting confused when Firefly: Revenge of the Sith airs it's pilot on television and people see her in the role of Inara. It'd be good publicity for the show, but still, she's Inara--first and foremost.

Wacky fun!

Oh you're awesome... ...'Firefly:Revenge of the Sith"...

I'm so glad to see this site is (apparently) still alive & full of cool pimples...
...ummm...

PEEples... THORry...

Don't get confused when 'Firefly: Revenge of the Sith' airs or "your friends will think you're a stupid, inbred stack of meat."

hehhehheh... exACTly what I was thinkin', Donnie-Don-Don...

Morena(?)... WW(?)... Morena(?)... WW(?)... ...if she's cast, I will go immediately - LASers, 8-O'Clock, Day-On - to go see that movie... and I guarantee that NOONE else is even remotely as compellingly interesting in the role to me as M.B. 'cause otherwise "my friends will think I'me a stupid, inbred stack of meat."

I meant fight training and the" costuming and heels" was my weak attempt to overcome her tinyness.

I agree that as an actress trained at Julliard she will be miles beyond what any of those other current young actresses can do.

Passion, that's what you've got... I like it.
And agree with you wholeheartedly that Morena is the best for this role.
