Reports whatsplaying.com, "I hear that Tanit Phoenix, the super-sexy supermodel who is heavily rumored to be one of the frontrunners for NBC’s new Wonder Woman, has just signed on for the film too. So… Green Lantern and [a possible] Wonder Woman in the one movie! Reps for the model/actress (she was recently in Death Race 2) have confirmed Ms Phoenix’s casting ('Tanit begins filming next week') but are keeping a tight-lid on details of her character. Suffice to say, Phoenix will largely be working with Reynolds and Washington. Nice company to be in."

Safe House focuses on Reynolds' CIA agent character who is given the assignment of transporting Washington's criminal type to safety, and both of them are attacked at what is supposed to be a safe house. The film is written by Davis Guggenheim and directed by Daniel Espinosa. While Phoenix's role in it isn't clear at the moment, her previous credits include Lord of War, Lost Boys: The Thirst and the soon to come Spud.

She's a good choice for the part. Athletic, decent height, looks damn good. Also looks like WW.

BEST CBM cast of the year so far if this is true.

Is she gonna be wearing the new costume? The one with the spanx and jacket.
Angelus
Angelus - 2/7/2011, 8:15 AM
She surely is wonderous. I honestly would watch WW if she was the titular character. And I especially wouldnt mind seeing her in as little clothes as possible. Wonder Woman deserves a film! Not a tv series! Damn you WB! I said damn yooooooou(!!)

@Angelus - I second the part about seeing her in as little clothes as possible... But Can I get a F(rick)ing movie, please!!!!

emeraldprince- It was already reported that she'd be wearing something more "appropriate" and will just leave her sexy costume on the hanger.

I WANT THIS ON THE BIG SCREEN, you Hollywood [frick]ERS!!!

Taint Phoenix is a hottie but she is a terrible actress, if any of you feel like torturing yourselves sit through Death Race 2 (which I am ashamed to say I have)check it out , of course with what they are proposing for a WW tv show it wont matter who plays the princess

Tea- It was for the suit, not the actress LMAO ;P

YourMomNaked- It is very similar to it in design. And i find it's a great suit. Lois' version is a tad bland though. Like a cheap version. I want Wonder Woman's suit to look like "Gladiator" quality, know what i mean ;)

@YourMomNaked and Shaman

that image was done by JoshMC years ago but the people from Smallville seem like they copy his concept design for WW but they changed it to look less similar to his.

Wha?????
No one has said anything about an accent!? If anything she should have a Greek accent.And I can't figure out what you mean in that last sentence...?
This is the second angry comment I've seen from you in as many minutes.Both overreactions.Have you woken up to find you've been robbed or something?

Any chance of a "sensible" picture where you can actually see her face?

If that's her then I'm going to curl into a ball and cry while NBC ruins an American icon.

She's too skinny and too young to be Diana.

"Death Race 2" really looks like it was a film made to groom both her and the audience for Wonder Woman. You were basically catching glimpses of how a darker more realistic version of Wonder Woman would look in action in that film.

Phoenix is drop dead, boy.. Heh, I kind of find it hard to picture the practicality of her costume on the big screen. It just doesn't fit in the real world. I understand what y'all are sayin' about keepin' faithful to the comics, but some adaptations are necessary. I couldn't take WW serious in her costume in real life. It's just not logical; not practical. I'd prefer a change. A woman who looks like Xena fighting monstrous crime in the middle of New York? Doesn't fit.

@Jer3miah
I see what you're saying.Could work as the costume she arrives in from Themiscyra.Since it's supposed to be isolated for millenia...

@Tea- I don't like Oldie Rubbers either. She is the one thing I can't stand about HIMYM ;) I'm also seriously hating the idea of her in The Avengers.

Jer3miah- I'd be happy to deal with "tweaks" just not black leather pants and a jacket. I say, if a woman can fly and kick a demon's ass in broad daylight, how is it so unfathomable for her to be wearing a gladiator skirt while doing it? What makes leather pants anymore fathomable? She's not going to the mall to hang out in her red, blue and gold bathing suit. So armor her up a bit a la Gladiator with all the gold trimmings and let her loose on monsters asses. I mean, the bathing suit i get, it's degrading. But warrior threads should be welcomed. What, Superman can wear red panties over his tights but Wonder Woman can't wear a leather padded gladiator skirt? WTF???
