I think it's kind of funny that they have this poll going. If you look at the info for WW on IMDB, it lists Morenna Baccarin as WW/Dianna Prince. BUT, we all know how notorius IMDB is for running with bad info, Right?
I keep meaning to update IMDB on that. I would like to announce that I am, in fact, playing Wonder Woman. It's totally true, folks.

eta: Ah. Looked her up since I was checking out the poll. Will wait patiently for whomever does get cast, while also hoping that Joss has lots of say in the matter.

Either that, or b!x is gonna play her, dressed up as Priyanka Chopra.
(There's also this, which should net us some valuable insights..)

I suspect Joss is actually going to fashion WW from a variety of fruits and vegetables (principally bananas since it's one of the taller fruits). To lend depth to the character and a hint of exotic ambiguity maybe just a smidge of tomato.

Is it just me, or are there a lot of pictures of SMG surfacing with her sporting dark hair? I heard that it’s no secret that she wanted to play WW. I wonder if there is a connection.
I think this project will languish in 'development hell' for a while and then they will announce WW as they did Heath Ledger for the Joker. As Simon wrote, 'OMG She is so wrong' will be heard by all. I would be surprised if this movie makes a calendar this decade.

(Thank you, war_machine -- with such wits as Saje and Simon, gossi and others to play off of, I almost have no alternative...)

I've seen Kate in a few things and she doesn't suck but I haven't seen her in any really challenging roles, except maybe Brokedown Palace and she wasn't bad in that.
Whoever Joss goes with I think we can all assume will be right for the role. Remember, until we see the movie we won't know exactly how he want't WW to be portrayed.
Edit to add: Just read her bio on IMDB and (If it's all true, it is IMDB after all...) then she's not exactly Miss Thicko. Majored in French and Russian literature at Oxford? Makes my CSE grade 4 in chemistry look a bit lacking.

Thats a dirty joke waiting to happen too.
"I have this wonderful feeling that when the casting decision is made, it will be slammed as "OMG. She is so wrong!!! Warner Bros sucks lol!! I know best as I am a spotty 16 male fan boy who has never kissed a girl!!"."
Believe it or not, they all populate the craignotbond and alice websites. So I think WW might be safe...

I do hope Joss finds someone soon, because I am honestly sick to death of all the speculation. And I think it's pretty clear that many of the actresses touted for the role are unlikely to be picked, not only because Joss has said he wants to get a relative unknown for the role, but because most of them are famous for their looks rather than genuine acting ability.
Having said that I do hope Joss does consider the likes of Morena or Charisma for the role if he thinks they are good for it. I definitely think Morena could stand a strong chance whereas Charisma is a little older and although she is still fantastic looking it would be a stretch to see her playing someone around the age of 20.
