(1,536 posts)Look how thin this woman is. Look at her arms.
Wonder Woman is an Amazon.
She needs to look like this -

In most pictures I saw of her she looks wimpy and in some she looks downright frail. Hopefully, they will work with her to allow her to gain weight and add a little muscle.

(25,586 posts)Look how Cavill packed on muscle for the Supes role, and the way Bale and Affleck bulked up for Bats -- I'm confident she's going to look a lot more physical when she hits the big screen as Wonder Woman.

I mean, uh... Ok, I just lost my train of thought.
Ok, got it... Jelena Abbou.
Still, it is possible that she would get those arms in time for the time camera rolls.

(8,217 posts)She is really pretty, and I'll reserve judgment till I see it, but I feel like the casting choices have been questionable.
She may be alright, but she really needs to bulk up for this part, and get some of those Amazonian curves.
I'd still say:
Gina Carano
Still, as mentioned, it is done. My fanboy heart is a little disappointed, but I know I will watch this thing.

Q: So youre not going to gain a little weight and start eating carbs before filming begins?
Its the physical preparations that Im starting now. A very serious training regime Kung Fu, kickboxing, swords, jujutsu, Brazilian 1,000 and 1 things Ill gain body mass.
