It would appear that relative nobody Teresa Palmer has officially landed the coveted role of Wonder Woman in the new Teen Titans movie….. Oops! Justice League movie.
Coming Soon reports:
The Grudge 2, December Boys and Wolf Creek star Teresa Palmer has landed the role of Wonder Woman in George Miller’s anticipated Justice League adaptation at Warner Bros.
Now, don’t get me wrong. I think this girl will fit the whole younger hip Justice League that Miller is forcing upon us. They are catering to the teen market, not those who actually KNOW who the Justice League are.
But still, this rubs me wrong for this girl as WONDER WOMAN. Sure, if they are going for a Wonder Girl image then she might suit that flippantly ignorant ditzy younger counterpart to Wonder WOMAN.
Wonder Woman was invented with the sole purpose of presenting a STRONG independent bold role model for women. At the time she was introduced, the North American culture needed something like that. However, even dying Palmer’s hair brown wont make her Wonder Woman.
If they wanted a strong bold character and still fit the teen demographic they should have gone with the ever sexy and super confident Sophia Bush.
But they are determined to piss on this movie, so why not hire a scrawny blond to fill the wonder corset. Genius.
