WONDER WOMAN Sequel Lassos GHOSTBUSTERS Actress Kristin Wiig As The Villainous Cheetah
We recently reported on a rumor that Cheetah would be the main antagonist for Patty Jenkins' Wonder Woman sequel, and that's now been confirmed as Kristen Wiig has entered talks to play the character...
Coming off the recent rumor that Barbara Ann Minerva, a.k.a. Cheetah, would be the main villain for the upcoming Wonder Woman sequel, Deadline is reporting that none other than Kristen Wiig (Bridesmaids, Ghostbusters, mother!) has entered talks with Warner Bros. to play the role.
We had previously been led to believe that the studio approached Emma Stone to play Cheetah, but that the Amazing Spider-Man actress passed on the offer.
The report also seems to confirm the '80s Cold War setting but doesn't really provide any further details, so we're not sure what stage the negotiations are in. We'll keep you guys updated on that front.
In the meantime, let us know what you think about this rather unconventional choice to play Cheetah in Wonder Woman 2.
