Connor ,'Not Fade Away'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Nope. If they went that way, it would probably be Oscar Winning Actress® Halle Berry, because she's the only one who could bring the proper empowerment to the part.
Plus, she kicks such ass in comic book roles.

I suppose if Gina is pushing the age barrier too, than Angela Bassett is well out of the question. Plus, I don't thinks she's played an ass-kicker since STRANGE DAYS.

There damned well better be a CD off of this.

If Gina is Wonder Woman, Angela Bassett could be Queen Hippolyta.
I'm trying to think what actresses fit the physical type of WW, and all I can come up with are ones who scare me:
Demi Moore and Catherine Zeta-Jones.
How are you defining physical type? Buffness, boobiness, brunetteness?
Buffness, boobiness, brunetteness?
Mostly boobiness and brunetteness.
Well, a number of the non-brunettes in the biz are probably actually really brunettes -- so that might not be much of a gating factor.
Are there people out there delusional enough to think that Charisma and Joss want to work together again?
I had no idea they had issues. Huh. I'm so in the dark. That said, even I know that Joss would be unlikely to want Halle Berry in another movie of his.
Well, also something about a physical type that seems imposing and regal -- not short and squat or scrawny. Which rules a lot of brunettes out (whether they're currently brunettes or not).
Physical gravitas. Which Gina Torres still rules the roost on. I'd say Peta Wilson has it, but she's bonier than my mental WW, and I don't know how she looks with dark hair.
Lucy Lawless certainly has it, but she may be too old -- but if they go with a Basinger-aged WW, it's probably the Xena associations that work against her.
Jessica Biel does have the physicality, I just don't know if she can act.
