Curvy MAD MEN beauty CHRISTINA HENDRICKS to go star-spangled-red-white-and-blue if film guru has his way.
While the Wonder Woman TV reboot may have gone the way of all things “camp”, Danish director Nicolas Winding Refn wants to launch a big screen adaptation of the DC Comics sensation with Hendricks.
“First of all, she’s an awesome actress,” Refn told New York mag.
“Sshe’s so beautiful and so sexy and such a powerhouse of a woman…. that’s the prototype of a real woman. She has everything a guy would want. And yet she’s everything a girl thinks is the right way to look. So for me, she’s the perfect choice.”
Despite the fact that Hollywood likes their tentpole stars to be in their 20s doesn’t phase the melancholy Dane one BIT.
“She’s mature, which I think Wonder Woman has to be, because it’s a very complex character,” he explained.
“You know, the whole Wonder Woman concept is ‘What if women were more powerful than men?’ And I certainly can’t come up with a more ideal choice to play that, both consciously because she’s very smart but also because of her sensibility and her physicality … so for me, she’s the perfect choice because she has so much sensibility and sexuality, but it’s true sexuality.
"And she has a body to die for. I certainly don’t know anybody of both sexes who doesn’t find her extremely attractive.”
The last attempt to launch a big screen WW was scripted by "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" creator Joss Whedon, who’s directing Marvel Studios “The Avengers”.
It didn’t get off the launch pad.
For now, the golden tiara still rests on the still-reigning Wonder Woman, LYNDA CARTER.
