Oct 26 2007Wonder Woman Boots Filled by Teresa Palmer?
When you need to cast a raven-haired, muscular amazon woman, a lot of people would turn to the obvious choice. That is, a woman with any of those traits.
But if you're Justice League of America director George Miller, your 62-year-old mind tells you what you need is the most slight, aryan-looking girl you can find. According to several sources, he's done just that, casting the giddy Teresa Palmer in the role of Wonder Woman. (Here she is looking drowned.)
Maybe once she's done some strength training, dyed her hair, and grown a foot this will all make sense.

Oh this just gets better and better. First they get a british guy to play Superman, then a scrawny way-too-young blondie to play an Amazon. I hear Aquaman is going to wear a life preserver and the Flash is going to use a walker.
This is so going to suck.

An anorexic 12 year old wielding the lasso of truth? Ugh. This is like casting Tom Cruise to play Lestat.... oh wait.

They're going to "reimagine" The Flash as a guy in a trench coat.

Isn´t the movie CGI?
If so, they only need the voices. I wouldn't complain about looks then.

I can't believe this is definition of an Amazon! What is wrong with Hollywood? Favoritism since the director is Australian?

I think she looks beautiful. A worthy choice for Wonder Woman. She can simply dye here hair. It worked for Sarah Michelle Gellar.
