Although we may not see the Amazonian princess on the big screen for some time, we will see her grace our tv screens at some point. Apparently WB/DC are already on the hunt for a lady to don the lasso and gauntlets. And WhatsPlaying report that model turned actress Tanit Phoenix is on their watch list..



My contact passes on a rumor that the actress has actually already spoken to key members of the production team and expressed interest… and they’re (that includes some suits at Warner Bros, whom she did The Thirst with) apparently big fans, so her name will undoubtedly be amongst the four or five young actresses that are ultimately shortlisted for the role of the Amazonian princess. “She will definitely get to screen test”, says an insider.

Phoenix certainly looks the part. She's 5'9 and all kinds of gorgeous. Aside from The Lost Boys movie she has appeared in Lord Of War with Nicholas Cage, a few straight to dvd flicks and has been cast in the lead for HBO's upcoming show Femme Fatales. All we know about this WW show is that it will be written and produced by David E.Kelley, and also according to WhatsPlaying, "... will kick off in telemovie form in 2011, will reportedly fix on a contemporary Diana Prince.. Keep and eye on CBM for updates.

Looking at her bio, it says she is a ballet dancer and she practices Muay Thai/kick boxing.So she clearly very agile and would be great for the action/combat scenes.

What exactly do they mean by contemporary.It's not like the character is from come classic myth or novel, the comic book is contemporary.Are they going to change the character?Take away her Amazon roots?The fact that it says Diana Prince and not Princess Diana leads me to believe it.

Logan, I've only seen her in The Thirst and she was ok, its not the best type of movie to gauge. But if she has landed a part,..and a lead at that in any HBO show she must have some chops.

@tazmaniak: By Contemporary, they mean they won't be doing this in the 1940's. The story will start and be set in a modern setting.

"@tazmaniak: By Contemporary, they mean they won't be doing this in the 1940's. The story will start and be set in a modern setting."

But the comic book is set in the present.It's always contemporary, as it's set in whatever time period it is in the real world.

Wonder Woman hasn't been set in the 40s since the 40s.

Not especially familiar with Femme Fatales, but isn't it like a Skinemax version of The Twilight Zone?

Cute, but she does NOT look Greek. Hispanic? Sure, so maybe she can play an Amazonian from the Amazon, but NOT Greece.

I disagree, Superguy1591. The Deschanel sisters and Katy Pery can all get it on their heaviest flow days. lol
