Jill Wagner as Wonder Woman?

Jill-Wagner-Wonder-WomanThere have been a ton of Wonder Woman casting rumours over the past year, some of them good… some of them not so good. But none of them, and I mean NONE of them have got me as pumped about this one. Jill Wagner, who stared in the short lived “Blade” TV series on Spike has apparently actually MET wtih the producers. The good folks over at Moviehole give us this:

“I met with the guys over at Silver pictures about some things and Wonder Woman was one of them”, said Wagner, referring, of course, to meeting Producer Joel Silver at the Warner lot.

Jill is just plain old, flat out, mind blowing HOT. I can honestly say I’ve never watched a show JUST because I wanted to look at a beautiful woman for an hour… but the Blade TV show was just that. I watched it, so I could watch Jill. It didn’t hurt that she’s not a bad actress to boot.

I remember when I first heard about the Blade TV show. I thought “That’s a STUPID idea”. But then I watched the first 2 episodes and I changed my mind. The show was actually a decent idea and the concepts they had for it were actually interesting. The problems with that show started with casting yet another fucking NON-ACTOR (Sticky Fingaz) in a lead role… he sucked serious ass as Blade which litterally ruined the whole show. I’m not saying having a rapper as your lead actor was the ONLY problem with Blade, but there was just no coming back after that. Ever moment he was on screen it sucked the life out of the show (get it… a show about vampires and he SUCKED THE LIFE out of it? HAHA… oh shut up).

Jill Wagner however, was ALMOST enough to save it… but not quite. Sign her up as Wonder Woman, and hell… I’ll show up on opening night wearing some frigging stars and stripes tighty outfit.

  1. i second jessica beil, even though blade 3 was shit she did kick ass and look good at the same time. i think she can pull off black hair pretty good.

    and michael jai white only needs ONE good martial arts flick and i think he can be a star. can’t act worth a damn but he’s a good martial artist and in better shape that most recent action stars. he;s kinda like a black arnold from terminator. its a shame he got stuck in the piece of shit spawn. did anybody see the deleted scene from kill bill 2….classic lol

    peace….

  2. Hey Vince,

    I remember reading an interview with one of the show’s producers and he said they looked at Jai White and he even tested for the role but in the end they said that Sticky was more of what they wanted.

    Can we all agree that that deserves an incredibly loud “W T F”!?!?!?!

  3. Boobies and Breathing.

    Right?

    Really does it matter?

    Die the hair or wig it. Stuff said boobies in “Wonder Bra”

    End of story. Wonder Bra, that’s pretty funny right there.

  4. But on the other hand, when I clicked on Jill’s name, I found out that she graduated from the school I am currently attending, so she can’t be all that bad:)

  5. Hey John,

    I’m actually with you on Sticky being horrible as Blade. His display of martial arts was laughable and didn’t remind of the Blade I knew and loved from the comic books.

    I just wanted to make sure you saw the whole season and that you knew you saw a different, as bad as it was, Blade. Sticky was just as bad on the show as Snipes in Blade 3. We all know it was a major miscast.

    Hey Jay, I totally thought about Jai White should of been casted as Blade, but I think he probably done with superhero stuff after Spawn.

  6. Man,
    I hate to do it, but I gotta agree with John here.

    Sticky SUCKED as Blade.
    I mean, He REALLY sucked.
    Almost zero acting talent and he just seemed too short even though he’s only a little less than an inch shorter than Wesley.

    Michael Jai White was the way to go and I cant believe they didnt cast him.

    As for Jill Wagner as Wonder Woman… I could live with that.
    She’s the only one mentioned so far that I would want as much as Jessican Biel.
    I do love me some Jessica Biel.

  7. This would be a great choice. She’s “known”ut not “well known”, she’s exposed to the comic geek world, and she can act. She has not,as of yet, however, made any comment about it on her myspace page. Hopefully there will be something soon.

  8. Hey Vince,

    How on earth can you say:

    “There you go John labeling “rapper turned actors” and not seriously giving them a chance.”

    I did give him a chance. I watched all 12 episodes of the Blade TV show. He SUCKED. He was horrible. Beyond horrible. And he only turned Blade into his own the same way as a 12 year old girl would have. Just because he was soooo bad.

    He had zero skills as an actor… and I gave him 12 episodes to prove it.

  9. There you go John labeling “rapper turned actors” and not seriously giving them a chance. Wouldn’t you agree that Sticky Fingaz got the role because he did a damn good impression of Wesley Snipes’ Blade?

    Throughout the season it was kind of annoying to see this, but he is actually making his role as Blade into his own. This is a sign that he at least has some skill as an actor.

    The guy has been acting for over a decade and I don’t think I’ve even heard any song he has done, but have seen him in bit parts in other shows. He should of freakin changed his stage name and maybe you wouldnt be so quick to judge. Imagine if we kept calling Mark Walhberg, Marky Mark.

    As for Jill Wagner as Wonder Woman, I’d see that in a New York minute!

  10. I think Rodney may have something with the big name casting thing. True, Whedon likes to cast unknowns he many not have a choice but to concede to the money dudes. To be honest, at this point I’m less worried as to who gets cast and more interested in when the bloody thing is going to get started.

  11. Very true John, while I dont think it has to do with your singer-turned-actor theory, Sticky Fingaz seriously put a stake in the heart of Blade the TV series (stake…heart…yukyukyuk)

    As for Jill, Im still on the fence as to whether or not it was bad writing or her acting, she had flashes, but I sometimes felt she was just another hot bod and not a very good actor, she’s a bit “High School Play” for me. I wouldnt mind seeing her in something….just not Wonder Woman.

    You know who I would love to see as Wonder Woman, but it will NEVER happen….Gina Torres!!

  12. When I read that you were willing to show up to the premier in the stars and stripes tighty outfit, I hoped beyond reason that Sharon wrote this.

    Now I hope beyond reason that Jill does get the role SIMPLY to see if you follow up on this empty dare. (Sounds to me like you dont think she will get it)

    I personally worry that they will cast someone purely based on name recognition alone. Despite Jill being hot, and fit enough to play Diana Prince, they might want to put a bigger name in the pushup bra.

    I hope they dont. Get the right actress regardless of how popular she is.
