lets hope they reel her back in before she drowns
I thought that they were going to consider Eva Longoria and Catherine Zeta-Jones. Catherine is HAWT and she would do well in Wonder Woman, imo.
....but, she is pretty.
Well I don't know if its truely offical but IMDB has put her as Wonder Woman on the imdb: Wonder Woman board. And those crazy american idol fans were pissed that, that alien katharine mcphee wasn't choosen.

Hmmm, so it's just in negotiations.
I haven't even heard of her. I wonder if her english sounds "american."
Seriously? Oh wow. Never thought they would cast an Indian actress but she looks great. Here's hoping she'll pull it through as Wonder Woman.
Poor Lucy Lawless - she wanted to be WW so badly at one point.
They could always have me do Wonder Woman....tee hee....
Oh, I heard that Zi Zi Zhang is playing the role of Mulan... Bleh! Don't like ZiZi Zhang (if that is how you spell her name)
Well Wonder Woman is an Amazon Princess in the comics. Last time I checked white anglo saxons didn't roam the amazon.
Mulan is coming? Eeeeow. Ziyi Zhang is going to play her??? Damn. She's so so. Not the most outstanding actress - they could have picked someone else.

It doesn't matter, SD. So long as you got the looks and the boozookas, you can play anything.... anything, baby.

[hr style="width: 100%; height: 2px;"]I want somebody else too but they need an actress who could look like a guy.... I don't think that I would watch the movie now because she's playing the part.
SD - sorry for changing the topic on ya. Forgive me? [insert purelife's sad puppy face]
No problem.
I just took a glance at the filmography and I don't recognized any of it.

Zhang Ziyi is incredibly gifted and focussed. Her physical dexterity is unparalleled. That said, I don't see her as Wonder Woman. Wonder woman should be curvy.
When I was working with actors in China, I was amazed at their versatility. They could all sing (a talent that I am severely lacking in) and dance, and a number of them were well-versed in Kung Fu, as well as act.
She's not known because those are bollywood films. I guess if you wanted to check those films out you could go to a local indian store that sells bollywood films. The Paki-Indi market store that is by my house (which I went into to get rice once, and I got looks, funny looks, but I didn't care, they were like wow, what are you doing here, it was funny weird.) sells bollywood movies.

Well, they do lots of singing and dancing in schools, and it becomes obvious pretty quickly who has talent. Getting into the film academies requires passing tests and exams. With the one child per family policy, parents devote much of their time and resources on cultivating their kids' talents and hedging their bets. A lot of pressure on kids, for sure.

Ahhh. I'm not sure I see her in Mulan either. I think Mulan should be warm and perky, with a tough-ass side. Zhang Ziyi is talented, athletic, tough, but not warm and perky. She'd be better as an intimidating ice-queen. The animated version of Mulan's pretty American, and Chinese reaction to it was largely one of baffled amusement (from what I witnessed). The dragon couldn't have been more American.
I agree with you AF. I don't see her in Mulan because she doesn't look like a soft type. I personally don't like her much because of her attitude. There's something about her that I wouldn't trust her as a friend.
