Anyone who doesn’t quite jive withGal GadotasWonder Womanmay be even more disappointed to know what could have been. Megan Gale, who stars inMad Max: Fury Road, was originally set to play Diana Prince in directorGeorge Miller’sJustice League Mortal. But as history has it, that Warner Bros. project fell apart, and never saw the light of day. There is a new documentary in the works about everything that went wrong. And the official Facebook page has shared an official photo of Megan Gale in her Wonder Woman costume. This is what they had to say about it.
“An official shot of Megan Gale’s Wonder Woman viaMark RogersPhotography. Mark released these pictures via his website and is in no way connected to our documentary. What do you think? We’ve loved the design ever since we first saw it.”
Some may agree that this is a lot cooler than what we’re getting inBatman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, while others may simply think it’s too close to the comic books upon which it was based. BeforeZack Snyderset out to introduce this popular DC Comics superhero in his upcoming blockbuster, which will be followed by her appearance inJustice League Part 1andJustice League Part 2,George Millerhad planned to bring all of the DC heroes together in his own epic. Though the film was cast, and some preproduction work had already been done, it was canceled. And all the behind-the-scenes drama is going to be captured inMiller’s Justice League Mortal. But as the official site claims, the documentary itself is not yet moving forward at this time.
“Please keep in mind that until all involved parties have given us the green light to move forward; this project is still a ‘proposed documentary’ as stated in the original Inside Film Magazine interview. The film will not delve too deeply into the unfortunate circumstances that brought about the films cancellation - instead it will be a ‘love letter’ of sorts to George Miller’s vision and the team that was working tirelessly to make it a reality.”
Since the documentary was first announced earlier this year, we’ve gotten to see quite a few concept art pieces and other items from the movie. Thesse latest photos were snapped by famed photographer Mark Rogers. The design is a little more traditional. And it is quite a bit more colorful than the toned down, earthy palate on display inBatman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.
What do you think? Do you likeGeorge Miller’s take on Wonder Woman better thanZack Snyder’s? Do you think Megan Gale would have made a better Diana Prince thanGal Gadot? Or are you glad that this is one superhero movie that never got off the ground?
