Gina Carano On The Importance Of Getting A WONDER WOMAN Movie Right

Aside from the now cancelled tv series Amazon, WB have remained tight lipped about any plans they may have to bring Wonder Woman to the screen. But Carano has always been a fan-favorite to play the character, and in an interview with Coming Soon she discusses the importance of doing it "correctly"..

MMA star turned actress Gina Carnao has long been a very popular choice among fans to play Wonder Woman on the big screen..should Dc and Warner Bros. ever get the ball rolling on that of course! Carano has addressed this in the past, and was even rumored to be on WB's radar for the role at one point, but there was never anything confirmed. Now, while taking to Coming Soon, she says that she's "starting to get into the comic book space a little," and hints at "good prospects". She also expresses how flattered she is by all of the fan support, calling it a "great compliment". Carano also thinks that it's just a matter of time before we do see Princess Diana grace our screen, but that when it happens it needs to be done the right way.



"That's the ultimate superhero for a woman. No matter what, no matter who ends up being Wonder Woman someday, I just hope it's something that is done correctly. I know it's there and that it could definitely be done correctly. It's just a matter of getting the right people and having the right vision come together. A director and producer and writer have to see the beauty in it and make it real."


You guys still think Carano would do the character justice?

She can try as much as she wants but she won't get the part...she sucks.

shes right in what she said, but at the same time they need someone who can actually act, and that aint her.

I STILL PREFER BRIDGET REGAN FOR THE ROLE!

She could definitely do the action parts and would look cool doing it but two things are keeping her back 1) She cant act to save her life and 2) her and Cavill broke up and hiring her for a Justice League movie is just asking for trouble.

I dont think she's a good fit at all. I say pick a decent actress first, it's not real fighting we are seeing on screen. The made it look like Keanu Reeves could do amazing Kung Fu over a decade ago. If they hire Gina Carano , it will because she is a good mma style fighter. Would wonder woman fight in a MMA style no. Just imagine if Superman did, it's the same thing. I say get a decent,tall actress first , everything else can be done with movie magic

Since Cavil dumped her, doubt it.

Either way no.

Thanks for that, Gina, you've got a point. Now let us all - including you - sit tight, and wait for an actress who can do the character justice to show up.

I agree she prob doesn't have the chops for WW but she's not TERRIBLE! There are plenty of worse actresses getting regular work in Hollywood right now.

If she doesn't get the part, which she won't because she can't act, she could always take up a career stating the obvious. Clearly she's aiming for both.

If you've seen Haywire you wouldnt say shes TERRIBLE. She's alright.

I just dont think she has the charisma/goddess-like aura to play WW

Alexandra Daddario would be perfect.

Thats good that she feels that way, BUT the one who gives her take on wonder Woman, and gets my vote for it

is Jamie Alexander

The only way DC will risk a Wonder Woman movie is if Marvel puts out a successful movie starring one of their female heroes. I only say that because Marvel has taken chances with their properties and DC is trying to play it safe. Honestly before Avengers proved it could be done the chance of JLA actually coming to the big screen was nil. If Guardians of the Galaxy proves successful, you can bet that a better attempt at Green Lantern will follow. DC is playing it safe, using Marvel to test the waters fir certain types if films. It's a smart strategy from a financial standpoint...but it's what's keeping DC from putting many of their characters in film. Despite the fact that Wonder Woman could easily hold her own on screen.

Carano was be an awesome Wonder Woman. Haywire was pretty damn good.

Carano is a gorgeous woman! Who knows, with the right script, director and some coaching she could get the part down. Like Ror said there are worse actresses getting roles. Other then Gina my other pick would be Nadia Bjorlin, absolutely gorgeous, has those big clear blue eyes and is at the right age for the part.

@batz

to obvious ...she was particulalry sleepwalking during those Twilight movies. I heard she was good in Runaways.


Megan Fox ? She's not that bad actress. + she's hot :)

Jamie Alexander or Haley Atwell
Too bad they're both in Marvel

Emily Blunt would be perfect if she train before, a training like Antje Traue did to be Faora.

I wish Antje Traue was Wonder Woman

All they need to do is write a good script and characterize WW the same way they would a man in a CBM. It's so simple. It's just that studios don't want to push out superhero films with women leading them.

While sexy, Carano can't act. She was underwhelming in Haywire and Fast 6. Jaimie Alexander would be a perfect WW, but she's currently playing Lady Sif, which is basically the same character. Regan from Legend of the Seeker would be my pick for WW.

I wish DC and WB had just a tiny ounce of balls, and could quit making bullshit excuses about "it's to hard" and blah blah blah. I mean a [frick]ing talking raccoon is getting to the big screen before the god damned Wonder Woman? That is truly pitiful. Take the god damn animated DVD, watch it, and realize you suck hard, WB.

RexDartEskimoSpy - 8/15/2013, 9:53 AM
If WB can get their act together, Wonder Woman will be played by someone we've never heard of before who'll be perfect, like Cavill. (However you feel Man Of Steel turned out you must admit he was excellent.) Of course, that's a great big if.

Wasn't the first Marvel movie Howard The Duck? Out of Avengers, X-Men, Spidey, and everyone Howard was first. DC has been making films since the late 70s. Marvel started in the late 90s.
