According to Ain’t It Cool News the role of Wonder Woman in the upcoming Justice League film has finally been cast. After rumors of Jessica Biel and Teresa Palmer being considered for the role. Out of nowhere comes Australian supermodel Megan Gale as the woman who will wear the golden tiara, lasso and bracelets.
Palmer as it turns out is in the movie, but not as Wonder Woman. Instead she plays Talia Ghul, daughter of longtime Batman nemesis Ra’s al Ghul.
Gale has very little acting experience but at least she seems to have the screen presence to play the Amazonian warrior princess (it goes without saying that she’s beautiful). Megan is 5′10″ tall and 32 years old, and I’m happy to hear both of these stats. Wonder Woman should be played by a tall woman and someone about 30 years old instead of some 21 year old pixie.

She sure looks like she could be Wonder Woman to me
And here’s a closeup:
What do you think? Good choice? She works for me.

I’m sold! LOL, At least by her stature and stats.:)
IMHO,JL is beginning to look alot better in sooo many ways!:)
WHOA!! >immitates wolf whistleWHOA!! >immitates wolf whistle< Great choice,IMO! She certainly looks the part!!
She looks like she can definately be Diana: Princess of the Amazon.
Her OTHER stats look to be 38-26-36 and natural. Nice.
Sad to say this, but I’ll go see JL JUST to see her in the costume!
She’s not LYNDA CARTER,but she’s still gorgeous.She looks the part,great height! I would love to see a WONDER WOMAN movie with Tyra Banks as NUBIA AND Lynda as the queen mother.
Hate to break it to you guys,but I’ve read an article over at Obsessed with film.com that Eva Green might be playing WW…or she could be playing Talia Al Gul or Iris West,I really have no idea. It just says she’s been cast as someone if I remember correctly…..
And Eva Green is a good choice as well and I know she can act cuz of her role in Casino Royale,but Megan Gale seems OK too.
what about Veronica Bernal? I understand that her accent might be a problem but check out her features and physique:

I’d vote for her.
Sorry, it’s Lorena Bernal, former miss Spain. She’s as close to Lynda Carter as I see so far.
Damn….I’d hit that. SHHHMOOOOOOOOKIN’!
Hot-cha-cha!
Niiiiiice choice. >immitates wolf whistleDamn….I’d hit that. SHHHMOOOOOOOOKIN’!
Hot-cha-cha!
Niiiiiice choice. >immitates wolf whistle<
I thought Victoria Hill would’ve been a good choice too but I’m cool if Megan Gale gets the part.
Still….that Bernal…mm,mmm,DAMN she’s fine!
Meg Gale appears to be a wise choice .I’m glad she is different than Lynda Carter and shouldn’t be compared .Theyl alf to work on er ausse a’cent itch ouldn’t be a problem she looks intellegent enough. Good luck Gale!!!
Megan Gale should MOST definitely be cast in the lead role of upcoming Wonder Woman as should Lynda Carter as the Queen. Just because the JLA movie is on indefinite hold doesn’t mean Warners has to waste such an AWESOME casting choice like Megan Gale to play WW in the solo film.
i love megan gale. she would suit the role perfectly, shes beautiful, strong and feisty! just what WW is!
Here! Here! You said it Ena! I haven’t come across another actress who even comes close to Megan Gale’s persona. She’s got that screen presence that I haven’t seen since Lynda Carter portrayed her back in the day. It takes a special person to pull off the most iconic female superhero role around, as far as I’m concerned. And Megan Gale’s just the woman to do so.
I really don’t know, I would have to see her naked before I could be 100%. Can that be arranged? If someone is silly enough to pay $200mill to go into space in a Russian sputnik when Megan is on this planet you gotta ask why?
It’s nice to hear you asserting your manhood and all but take the smut talk elsewhere. This is not the forum for trash talk.
