A contributor to Oh No They Didn’t overheard someone on a bus in LA saying that they were working on the new Wonder Woman film and that Lucy Lawless is going to star in it:
I know there’s been a lot of speculation of who will be given the roll, and I know you can’t trust every long haired mack you meet on the bus, but Hollywood’s also chock full of insider information, if you know where to look, so, take it with a grain of salt, but if he were making it up, he would have picked someone more appealing to a woman than Xena.
The notion that Kate Beckinsale was in talks to play Wonder Woman originated as an April Fools’ Blog post, while the rumor that Lindsay Lohan was vying for the part was recycled from a “Herbie: Fully Loaded” interview in which a reporter specifically asked her if she’d consider it. Given those sources, this is as good as any.
We read a while ago that director Joss Wedon said he was looking for a young Wonder Woman for a “coming of age” type film, so a 38 year-old Lawless in the lead doesn’t make sense. It could be true, we’ll just have to wait and see.
Here are pictures of Lawless at Maxim’s 100th anniversary party in Las Vegas on 4/8.

Yup, she would be perfect as Diana. I kinda get the idea that she has no interest in the role. But I admit, I’d love to see it. Wonder Woman was my favourite show when I was a kid, and to see Luce do it, absolutly!
Peace, Charis.xX
