Is Carey Wonder Woman?
A new name has emerged as the frontrunner in the battle to bring Wonder Woman to the big screen - Mariah Carey. The Daily Star reports that Carey has been offered the part of the female superhero, which would presumably come as a surprise to Sandra Bullock, who has always been linked with the role. (Then again, that was probably when people still went to see Sandra Bullock movies.)
A "friend" of Carey's is quoted as saying: "She's delighted to have been offered the role of Wonder Woman. She likes fun films as she has a great sense of humour, so a role like this would suit her better than a serious one." Add your own comment about it also suiting her acting range here.
Carey made her acting debut last year in The Bachelor and has recently been starring in All That Glitters, a drama set in the New York club scene that co-stars Max Beesley and Da Brat. Wonder Woman has been in development for several years, with Sandra Bullock, Catherine Zeta Jones and Shannon Elizabeth all being linked with the role made famous by Lynda Carter in the 70s. Action expert Joel Silver is producing.
