Gal Gadot is our brand new Wonder Woman, and she, alongside Patty Jenkins, has done an awesome job breathing life into the Princess of Themyscira on the big screen, supercharging the DC Cinematic Universe.
In any case, while we commend the accomplishment of the new Wonder Woman film, let us glance back at some actresses who were so close yet so far to getting to be Wonder Woman themselves. Here are 15 of them…
15. Christina Hendricks
A while ago when people weren’t so certain about Gadot’s ability to typify the Amazon princess, Mad Men star Christina Hendricks was one of the fan top choices to play the new Wonder Woman.
14. Adrianne Palicki
Adrianne Palicki did play Wonder Woman for an entire 40minutes. In 2011, Warner Bros and DC were intending to release another Wonder Woman TV series like the present The Flash, Arrow, and Supergirl. They roped in Palicki to play Wonder Woman, and shot a full pilot scene. The pilot ended up being a catastrophe, and NBC chose not to purchase the series. The pilot scene was never broadcast, and the Wonder Woman TV show was instantly rejected.
