no. Gal was awesome in the role.

Gadot may have gained some fanboys so I doubt anyone would be better suited for the role.

No way the girl above is not pretty , and nor does she look like WW . Gadot all the way .

You have to be ugly like wonderwoman to act as her.

@agent41:

Don't feed the troll!

(Though it is some awesome food!)

She has the rack, but that's about it.

Gal had 15 minutes of CGI and everyone thinks she's great. Let's wait for the solo

@nerevarine_11:

Some of us liked what Gal was able to convey in those 15 minutes.

And to the OP;

Though I think Christina is beautiful and I love her gorgeous curves, I could not see her as WW. Even when she isn't trying to, she exudes SEX. Wonder Woman's sexiness should be more subtle. I think Gal as WW has that "thing" where she's sexy without poking your eyes out with her massive tatas. Gal looks the part, in every interview she seems to "get" Diana and her sheer excitment at playing the character shines through!

@black_arrow: Where did that gif come from? Its awesome!

@rayray1127: I know you're easily impressed.

Some people have the extra features that come with the Ultimate edition, and one posted this gif of a costume test that Gal had with the suit.

@rayray1127: You bring up a very good point as to why Gadot works better.

@nerevarine_11:

Lol! People on these boards are so polite to each other. It warms my heart. ;) Obviously I enjoyed her, you didn't. I have news for you. THAT'S OK. You don't have to be rude! I hope you find the lighter side of life, friend!

She doesn't look like WW. Just as Gal Gadot.

I know right......What very little acting she did was very poor what was left could have been done by any actor with direction and CGI.

Don't know if CH would be any good but almost anyone would be better than Gal Gadot.

Had to vote for neither being that great. I've never seen anything from Hendricks that makes me think she'd be a good fit for Wonder Woman and I've never seen anything good from Gal.

Not sure if I could pick someone to make a great Wonder Woman though to be honest.

I don't know, what we've seen from Gal in the WW role thus far has been pretty good ... more issues with the script from BvS than her actual performance IMO. I'm hoping Jenkins tones back on the mentality that WW must be totally serious at all times, because it appears like Gadot is having fun on set and she certainly respects the character from the interviews she's given. I doubt we'll ever find the "perfect" WW in terms of physical appearance, attitude and acting ability, but I think Gadot is growing into the role. Hendricks is certainly an amazing actress and with a little hair dye could look the part, but I'm not sure she's got the athletic ability to sink her teeth into an action role... admittedly I could be WAY off base with that assumption though!

Love Christina Hendricks but I would have never considered her for Wonder Woman.

@black_arrow said:

Love this gif too!

Nope.

@black_arrow said:

Awesome gif.

@csg_cl: When I say I haven't seen anything good from Gal I only mean her previous work. I didn't see anything bad from her in BvS or at least nothing that stood out. I'm willing to give her a chance because I think she's got a great look for a realistic Wonder Woman and I agree that she seems to respect and enjoy the character which is always good.

I see ... and I agree, her work in the FF films wasn't exactly awe inspiring stuff :)

Just cause you have big boobs, doesn't mean you would make a good WW.

@the_stegman: She is a spectacular actress though!

How am i being rude.

Gal described Diana in the solo WW movie as "A naive, pure, and young idealist."

Oh too true I must agree . . . . But I would appreciate the aesthetic none the less ;)

This GIF makes me like her more for the role than anythng else I've seen or heard. lol

@rag_man: Ikr

Yeah, I went from still on the fence to totally accepting in the time it took to view that GIF LOL

I'll be honest. I've always hated her in the role. That hasn't changed but that gif makes me hate her a little bit less.

I've had this pic on my computer for years, it's nice to finally get some use out of it. But no, she's no more Wonder Woman to me than Gal Gadot. They're both wrong for the part for different reasons.

after seeing this pic I could totally see her as and Artemis/Aleka/Orana type of Amazon though

Her Boobs have more acting ability and more presence than Gadot.

No

@nerevarine_11:

Well how about saying I'm easily impressed? You don't know me. You don't know the scope of my love for this chatacter. We can disagree on a topic of conversation without being snarky. Anyhow, BACK TO TOPIC!

That gif is oxygen to me! Seeing Wonder Woman smiling, happy, and being silly just endears Gal to me so much more. :) I know she's just goofing off, but I like to think Diana is the same way on her off time. As an only child amongst thousands of mothers, I imagine she devoloped her own brand of silliness and quirkiness...

And as for Ms. Hendricks? Ummm, Aphrodite anyone??? She'd be PERFECT!

@rayray1127: I could 100% get behind the idea of her as Aphrodite!

Gal certainly looks like she's more exotic than Christina, but all in all the idea of Refn making a Wonder Woman movie makes me cringe. Probably lots of rape and skull crushing happening in that film.

@rayray1127: I don't have to know somebody to deduce they're easily impressed. I've jingled keys in front of puppies and they're easily impressed.

I doubt she'd be better. I don't like Gal for the role either but she did a surprisingly good job.

Hendricks' face and physicals scream Power Girl more than WW.

Lmao! Yeah, that's a true statement. lol

@alsummers:

That was my thought as well! I'm glad Ms.Jenkins got the job!

No way, traditionally Wonder Woman's red-headed rival is blunt, fierce, a bit mean, it's part of her charm. Society used to hold some preconceived notions about ginger women that maybe played a part in the character's design, redheads were believed to be wanton and quick-tempered, in victorian England nobody wanted a ginger wet-nurse because of that. Christina Hendricks just seems like one of those girls who'd notice it if someone put a pea under her mattress, and just an FYI: she's not a natural ginger. Ronda Rousey, on the other hand, is (or would've been) perfect for the role of Artemis.

Ronda Rousey ... not really a fan of her to be honest, and what is with this thought that only some UFC type woman can play the role, does Rousey even have any acting credits? I'd rather have a totally proven and amazing actress play the part of a main character ... CH has the acting chops to pull off a tough rival despite your rather petty assessment of "looking like one of those girls" ... stereotype much?

@black_arrow: That gif warmed my heart, just seeing Gadot so happy to be Diana. From someone who hasn't really enjoyed anything from the DCEU so far, I now have no doubt Wonder Woman is going to be an amazing movie, thanks mate:D!

@archizooom: Ronda should not act in any role.
