Morrena has the face of Diana (WW). However, she's far too thin. When I met morrena at Dragon Con I noted that she'd need to be 40 lbs heavier of muscle and 5 inches taller to fill out the role right. WW has an amazon body-type.

But maybe with today's CGI you could fake it.

So I'm torn. I will agree that Morrena's face is perfect.


Do not fear me. Ours is a peaceful race, and we must live in harmony.

I usually do my best to avoid comments like this, but...

Either way, you can't go wrong, as long as there's the fancy eagle bustier and blue stars hotpants.

What "physical characteristics" are we talking about here? Thiefjehat qualified his comments, and I get that WW has to be muscular. But those pictures in the link aren't exactly showing off Charisma's muscles. I dearly hope Joss picks an actress that can not only look the part, and act the part, but also be something more than a sex object for guys to drool over.

Not that drooling isn't allowed. I drool over Mal all the time. But I want a Diana who's more than just drool-worthy, dong ma?

Charisma ? Yep, I can see her as WW. As for those pics though...hmmm. Fantastic body, no question. But in a strange way, I enjoy seeing MORE of her, but a part of me think's she's above posing like just another busty bimbo. Might be I'm thinking 'Cordy' and her unfortunate t.v. commercial spot, where the director treats her more like a sexual prop than an 'actress' she always longed to be.

People love a happy ending. So every episode, I will explain once again that I don't like people. And then Mal will shoot someone. Someone we like. And their puppy. - Joss

Then I guess you haven't seen Charisma's Playboy spread, have you AURaptor? Must say...it was classy for a Playboy shoot


And besides, whomever they do get's gonna have to weightrain and exercise like a mofo for the role anyway, even just to be able to do some of the stunts Joss have undoubtedly dreamt up for us to go "Ren di fou zou" over

Yeah, I do think Charisma could fit in the role, if she added a few pounds of muscle... At first, I didn't think, but I think I am slowly changing my mind.

Morena is gorgeous, but I can't really picture her as WW.

Our companion has two advantages over her: she's younger and more exotic. Give Morena the part and I'll be counting down the days to the premiere.

Well, Charisma ain't hard on the eye, but in my opinion Morena has a more exotic & classy look that I think would bring more to the Wonder Woman role. I think that Morena also has the talent to pull off the role. Not so sure Charisma would do it justice.

Actually, San Diego Chargers cheerlearder...but who's counting;)

And on the topic of Morena vs. Charisma's acting skills....one would assume Joss wouldn't hire actresses who couldn't handle the shit he throws at them during episodes. Though I still have to sit with my decision for Morena, mainly cuz of age. Joss has mentioned in interviews this WW film is gonna be like Batman Begins...younger heroine coming up in the world rather than an established heroine like the comics or the Lynda Carter version.
