Just as the news comes that the 'Justice League' movie is postponed and actors have been released from their option deals, actress Megan Gale is talking openly about landing the role of Wonder Woman in the feature.
"I still can't believe it,'" Gale told The Sunday Times' Perth Confidential. "I have been infatuated with Wonder Woman since I was a teenager.
"People used to tell me I looked like Lynda Carter."
At the time of the article's writing, Gale had reportedly been getting into Amazonian fighting shape and training with weapons for the part, which she won in October but has remained secretive about ever since.
Given the comments Gale made, it would appear that she talked to the Perth Confidential before Warner Bros. pulled the plug on the project.
"It was always a bit of a fantasy. It was never going to be a reality for me, but it kind of found me and I'm a big believer in fate and destiny.
"Even if the writers' strike goes on forever, for me, the fact that I've been cast as Wonder Woman is enough.''
The model-turned-actress may yet play the role, should the production restart later this year. However, with the current state of things on 'Justice League', it's entirely possible that the role could be recast with another actress.
