Friel wants Wonder Woman role
Actress Anna Friel has added her name to the list of actresses competing to portray Wonder Woman on the big screen.

A host of A-list ladies have been tipped to take over from 1970s TV's Wonder Woman Lynda Carter in Joss Whedon's big screen remake, including Megan Fox, Eliza Dushku and even Beyonce Knowles.

And Brit Friel wants to make sure she's considered too.

The Land of The Lost star tells People magazine she's been a fan since she was a child: "Everyone wanted to be Wonder Woman. I had Wonder Woman pyjamas."

But Dushku remains the favourite for the role, after Carter endorsed her in an interview with WENN.com, stating, "Eliza would make a great Wonder Woman."

I thought Joss Whedon wasn't up for Wonder Woman anymore!

They must not have gotten the memo on that one. Joss was booted off (or quit) the project ages ago. The last rumor I recall was Joel Silver floating the idea of persuading the Wachowski Bros the direct.

Yeah. I thought that was history.

Yeah I'm guessing it was just bad research. The Wonder Woman movie is still a possibility, but as far as I know, Joss' involvement ended a long time ago.
