Wonder Woman is expected for release sometime next year. For a little (temporary) closure, we offer our top choices for the role:
Charisma Carpenter: She's worked closely with Whedon before (as chatterbox Cordelia on "Buffy" and "Angel"), and she's kept a low profile lately, so it could be refreshing to see her again. "It hasn't even gotten so far as auditions," said her rep. "It's only in discussions at this point." On ImagineCasting.com, Carpenter is top of the list, beating out other contenders like Minnie Driver and Monica Bellucci.
Priyanka Chopra: One look at this raven-haired Bollywood beauty and you can just imagine her kicking butt. The former Miss India is currently starring in a superhero movie called "Krrish" and knows kung fu. We're sold!
Megan Fox: We're psyched to see Fox work the robot gear as Mikaela in her next flick, "Transformers." She hasn't auditioned for the Wonder Woman role, but she would be overjoyed to play it. "It would be flattering," her rep said. "Megan would love to do it. She's a big fan. And she can definitely fit in the suit."
Morena Baccarin: If you're a Joss Whedon fan, then you'll recognize Brazilian-born Baccarin from "Serenity" and "Firefly." Like Carpenter, she can be told what to do, where to sit and how to smile. It's almost as if Whedon has been training her for this opportunity her whole career.
Evangeline Lilly: Sure, she might be shooting "Lost" for what seems like forever (or she could be killed off next week), but it would be nice for Lilly to prove her acting chops beyond television. A movie poster of Lilly in a pair of starry knickers beats the cover of TV Guide any day.
Cameron Diaz: She kicked butt in "Charlie's Angels" as a blonde. Now she's channeling Wonder Woman as a brunette.
Denise Richards: Hey, anyone who throws laptops from hotel windows ...
