Have Patty Jenkins and Warner Bros. found their Queen Hippolyta? According to The Wrap, none other than Nicole Kidman is in talks to join Gal Gadot and Chris Pine in the DC Comics adaptation, which is set to shoot very soon.
Apparently the character she'd be playing is a "high ranking Amazonian warrior", but they don't specify whether it's Hippolyta or not, simply adding: "While Kidman’s potential role has yet to be confirmed, the Queen of the Amazons in the Wonder Woman comics is Hyppolyta, who also happens to be Diana Prince’s biological mother — though it’s unclear whether the film will remain faithful to that storyline."
Gal Gadot will be introduced as Wonder Woman in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice next year, before going on to star in her solo adventure which is set for a June 23rd, 2017 release.
