Olga Kurylenko Comments On Being Up For 'Wonder Woman' In BATMAN V SUPERMAN: DOJ
Though she plays it fairly coy, the gorgeous Oblivion actress does (pretty much) confirm that she was, as rumored, one of of the ladies up for the role in Zack Snyder's follow up to Man Of Steel. Click on for the video interview..
Of course we know that Fast And Furious actress Gal Gadot ultimately ended up with the role, but back when rumors were flying around left right and center as to who would play Wonder Woman in Batman V Superman, the far more experienced Olga Kurylenko was also on the shortlist (along with Elodie Yung). Kurylenko had previously starred in the likes of Hitman, To The Wonder, Centurion and most recently Oblivion alongside Tom Cruise, and seemed to be the fan-favorite for the role out of the actresses mentioned. When DesdeHollywood asked her about it, the Ukrainian beauty says it did "cross her mind", but that she's happy for Gadot, and looking forward to the movie.
"If I could have been [Wonder Woman]..well, because, everyone was saying that it was a possibility. It did cross my mind. But it’s fine, you know. There are many other roles. I am very happy for the girl that’s got the part. I am looking forward to seeing it.""
Would you have preferred if Kurylenko nabbed the role? Or are you happy with Gadot? let us know in the usual place.
