Bad Casting: Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman

[samosa4u]

Does she have a family member with Hollywood ties? Did she sleep with a top Hollywood producer? Or maybe she was just the kind of person Hollywood was looking for. Either way, this is what I call BAD CASTING. Now Gal is a very beautiful woman, and anyone who looks at her will notice that right away, but she has the body of a supermodel. In other words, she has thin arms, thin legs and is a bit lanky. She looks like she can't lift 50 pounds. Here is a screenshot below:



Wonder Woman is supposed to be physically strong, like someone who works out. No, I am not saying she is supposed to look like a man, but she should have some muscle mass on her body. And of course, add beauty to that as well. Here is what I am talking about:



Oh yeeeaaaahhhh!!
What do you people think?

Based on physique (I don't know if I saw enough in BvS to decide on acting) I don't agree with you. Wonder Woman is supposed to have an inherent strength, not a strength she worked out to gain. If you look at vintage drawings she had, what you called, a model look.

I always thought Gina Carano would've been an obvious choice. Oh well...

Movie approval ratings are sky high in early reviews. Think it's going to be the blockbuster of the summer. Assuming summer ever arrives.
