When Mad Men star Christina Hendrics showed up at the SAG awards she was of course faced with questions about the rumors floating around that she would portray DC Comics icon Wonder Woman on the characters second small screen outing. Here is what Hendrix had to say about those rumors:

"No one has talked to me," she said on E!'s SAG red carpet special.


Hendricks also added her theory as to how these rumors were started:

"I think it was some kid in his basement saying, Christina Hendricks should be Wonder Woman," she joked.


David E Kelly's revamp of the classic DC Comic's Heroin will air on NBC this fall.

NBC stepped up to greenlight Wonder Woman. The project is described as a reinvention of the iconic D.C. comic in which Wonder Woman -- aka Diana Prince -- is a vigilante crime fighter in L.A. but also a successful corporate executive and a modern woman trying to balance all of the elements of her extraordinary life.

Good stuff BLEED! I remember her expressing interest in the role a few months back, but I'm pretty sure the reaction was pretty negative towards her playing Wonder Woman, despite the two very good reasons that she'd be a good choice for the role. :P

She'd make a better Medusa in an Inhumans movie anyway.

@Jolt17 -I agree on both points with the same amount of passion.
Well, maybe a little more passion for Hendricks as Power Girl.

@Jolt.....if she was younger....Power Girl isn't that old

@JoshW......That I could see as well, an Inhumans movie seems to be a tough sell.....if they try to connect it to the Movieverse, how could they pull it off?

Christina Hendricks looks disgusting to me...

@marvel......I don't think she is a big name to be lead in a Power Girl movie....they would have to establish her in any Superman sequels, then give her a proper spin-off.....also....even Atlas would struggle holding those milk mounds

Ummmm I dont think so, She looks ok cute with make up and with her breasts pushed up...but without that, she looks like a waitress at the Waffle House

@DukeAcureds LOL!

Well me too! :P

@ComicCritic well if she's picked, then make-ups will help on that! Anyone can look younger in Holywood make-ups lol.

@Mysterion and she won't appear without them on-screen, right? ;)

Actually...I can see a bit WW face in her, but I can't say if her hair's not black!

Someone do a photoshop of that for me?

And btw...the show may be good though, unless they do it like Smallville's Season 8-10!

Movie's just more proper!

@ Jolt: I’m sure if they ever cast her as WW (highly unlikely)…they would have to put layers of makeup on her to make her look hot, but I’m sorry other than her big boobs, her body frame isn’t all that and she is not even that tall…she is 5’7 and weight unknown (just googled it). With those wide hips and shapeless @ss, I would not want to see her body in a WW costume.

Jolt17 - 1/31/2011, 7:01 AM
@Mysterion oh logical, well I don't know much about her height etc. so yeah man, you got a point!

Nice opinion, though as I say she can be Power Girl!
Mysterion
Mysterion - 1/31/2011, 7:06 AM
@ Jolt: Power Girl is pretty much only known for her big boobs just like Hendricks...then yeah, that casting I would agree to, as long as the short red cape is long enough to cover her @ass lol.
Jolt17
Jolt17 - 1/31/2011, 7:21 AM
@Mysterion yeah that's why lol, who won't agree with that cast? :P

Hahaha and lol once more Myst! But Power Girl's cape is short, isn't it?

She's an excellent actress, but she doesn't fit Wonder Woman. I'm with LEEE - Power Girl!
