With the casting rumours currently in overdrive over who should play Batman and Lex Luthor in the upcoming movie Man Of Steel 2: Batman VS Superman, it's clear to everyone that this is leading the way to the eventual Justice League movie, which is basically DC's version of The Avengers.
With that in mind, perhaps the biggest casting decision to be made out of the whole group will be whoever gets to play Wonder Woman. One of the few female superheroes in the DC line-up, and notoriously difficult to get right on the big screen, as Joss Whedon and his failed adaptation should be able to attest to.
The following is a list of both fan-favorites, industry rumours and our own pie-in-the-sky fantasies. Some of them you'll probably strongly disagree with, some you'll probably never have thought of, but they all have an equal chance of donning the Amazonian's costume. We've take one or two out of the running for being a bit too on-the-nose (Megan Fox) or a bit too ridiculous (Beyonce), but here's the ten we'd be happy to see playing the role.
KATE BECKINSALE
Best Known For: Underworld, Total Recall
Pros: She's a big enough name to draw the fan-boys, without being too big to actually be more famous than the character. Plus, she's totally hot.
Cons: Would that cut-glass English accent work against her?
ODETTE ANNABLE
Best Known For: Cloverfield, The Unborn, House
Pros: She's been in explosion filled movies before, so she'll take like a duck to water in a blockbuster situation. Plus, she's totally hot.
Cons: She looks too young, maybe?
OLIVIA MUNN
Best Known For: Magic Mike, The Newsroom
Pros: Raw, primal sexuality, and can totally command a room full of men. Plus, she's totally hot.
Cons: She's 5'4, so maybe a bit too small to play an Amazonian queen.
GINA CARANO
Best Known For: Haywire, Fast & Furious 6
Pros: The most kick-ass chick on the list, could probably beat the heads in of just about anybody you've ever met. Plus, she's totally hot.
Cons: She's not exactly the world's best actress.
JENNIFER LAWRENCE
Best Known For: The Hunger Games, The Silver Lining's Playbook
Pros: Everyone loves her, and she's a fantastic actress. Plus, she's totally hot.
Cons: Almost definitely too young.
EVANGELINE LILLY
Best Known For: Lost, The Hobbit: The Desolation Of Smaug
Pros: Good actress whose career profile is about to explode thanks to The Hobbit movies. Plus, she's totally hot.
Cons: A little too lithe to play the character, perhaps.
MONICA BELLUCCI
Best Known For: The Matrix Reloaded, Shoot ‘Em Up
Pros: She certainly possesses that inherent exoticness that the character demands, and anyone who's seen Irreversible will tell you, a stellar actress. Plus, she's totally hot.
Cons: At 48 years old, perhaps a little passed the suitable age range for the role.
GEMMA ARTERTON
Best Known For: Byzantium, Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters, Prince Of Persia: Sands Of Time
Pros: Building up a kick-ass reputation for herself in her movies, playing one rock-hard lady after another. Plus, she's totally hot.
Cons: Same as Kate Beckinsale, that upper class accent will probably work against her.
LYNN COLLINS
Best Known For: John Carter, X-Men Origins: Wolverine
Pros: She's played a similar space queen in John Carter, and has been in a fair few blockbusters already. Plus, she's totally hot.
Cons: She's probably too much of an unknown quantity to cast in such a big role.
ROSARIO DAWSON
Best Known For: Sin City, Trance, Death Proof
Pros: Our favorite choice for the role, as a completely kick-ass actress, capable of being sexy, strong and smart all at the same time. Plus, she's totally hot.
Cons: Some may be against the idea of Wonder Woman not being a Caucasian, but to those people we say "Shup up!"
