WONDER WOMAN news, for what it’s worth…

If you’re a fan of DC Comics, especially if you’re an ardent fan of Wonder Woman, you may want to take a seat… at least, assuming there’s any meat to this slice of comic book movie news pie.

According to ComicBookMovie.com, the website recently Beyonce speak at a press conference about some of her upcoming projects and amongst them was Wonder Woman. She stated she had met with writers Stuart Beatti and David Elliot (GI JOE: RISE OF COBRA) and director John Moore (MAX PAYNE) and that they plan to start production by mid-2010 with a release expected for late 2011.

As I said, there’s not a lot of meat to this, but it’s curious that she appears to have some inside info. Perhaps the powers that be feel that Wonder Woman would make a great platform for diversifying the comic book movie audiences, who knows? I’m less concerned with the actresses ethnicity that I am with her talent on screen.

Beyonce’s resume as an actress hasn’t been impressive. Her last outing was the under-achieving OBSESSED. Prior to that, she’s been cast in singing roles for THE FIGHTING TEMPTATIONS, DREAMGIRLS and CADILLAC RECORDS. Her break-out role, so to speak, was as Foxxy Cleopatra in AUSTIN POWERS IN GOLDMEMBER. There won’t be any singing in WONDER WOMAN (Oh God, I hope not!) so, what do we think? Does she have what it takes or is this just simply blasphemy?
