quote: In early May, Comics2Film/CBR News was broke the first solid news in over a year about the planned "Wonder Woman" movie when we exclusively reported that "Smallville" scribe Philip Levens had come on board to write a new script for the project. In the wake of that the rumor mill has started buzzing again with sound bytes and speculation about the shape of this long-suffering movie project.
Entertainment Weekly managed to extract a few comments from producer Leonard Goldberg about the project. Goldberg is currently doing press for this weekend's "Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle."
The producer told EW that there should be a director on board in the next three months. As far as casting goes, Goldberg said the perfect leading lady would be, "in her early to mid-20."
EW also speculates that "Buffy" star Sarah Michelle Gellar is eager to don the star tiara, but she's not the only one.
According to Australia's Woman's Day magazine, Jennifer Lopez would also love to get the part. "I'd love to play Wonder Woman. I loved her when I was growing up -- she's hot," J. Lo is quoted as saying.
In the article Lopez points to the "crazy" wardrobe and invisible jet as attractions for her.
Fans are reminded that actresses from Jennifer Aniston to Chyna have speculated that they wished for the part for years, each time sparking a round of rumors that they are actually attached. In almost all cases, none of them actually were. So, while Gellar and Lopez may adore "Wonder Woman," there are still no actual casting attachments for this film.
Thanks to Lauren and Renny for the scoops!
