Well, it took long enough and I fear it may be too late. For the last couple of years, I've been watching all the Marvel comic characters get turned into movies (Spiderman, X-Men, Daredevil, the Hulk and the upcoming Punisher, Fantastic Four, Ghost Rider, Iron Man, Man Thing and Elektra movies). As a DC fan, I've been wondering when my favorite superheroes would start getting the Hollywood treatment again. The only characters that ad confirmed movies coming out were Catwoman and John Constantine and neither of them look very promising. (Halle Berry's costume has me worried about that movie and Constanine is starring Keanu Reeves.)
Lately, there have been a few confirmations about DC movies. The next Batman is on. It will star Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne and Michael Caine will play Alfred. A new Superman movie is in the works again as well.
The best news I've heard lately has been that Jaime King is rumoured to be attached to the lead role in a Wonder Woman movie. When Carla and I were driving home from seeing Bulletproof Monk, I said to her that Jaime King would be perfect for Wonder Woman if they ever make a movie and I guess this means that I'm not the only one that thinks it.
As far as other options for the part, Charisma Carpenter (Cordelia) has expressed interest and supposedly so has Sarah Michelle Gellar. I'm still rooting for Jaime King.
