Wonder Woman<\/strong> was once the crown jewel in Warner Brothers’ attempts to get a DC Extended Universe off the ground. But that is all about to change with a little bit of casting for\u00a0Wonder Woman 2<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Deadline<\/a> is reporting that Warner Brothers is in talks with Saturday Night Live<\/em> alum Kristen Wiig to play the sequel’s villainess, Cheetah.<\/p>\n

\"\"There have been a number of incarnations of Cheetah over the years. In comic’s Golden Age she was Priscilla Rich, a vain socialite who becomes the Cheetah to avenge being shown up by Wonder Woman at a party. Next is Debbie Domaine, Rich’s niece who is kidnapped by a terrorist organization and brainwashed into become the Cheetah.\u00a0Finally, there was Dr. Barbara Minerva, an archeologist who got cat-like powers from a plant god called\u00a0 Urzkartaga. Over the years, she has become Wonder Woman’s arch-enemy.<\/p>\n

I know that I am in the minority here, but I don’t like Wiig as an actress. Her run on SNL<\/em> was marred by her having at most 4 characterizations that she could employ with the only difference between them was the wig she wore.<\/p>\n

Immediately after leaving SNL<\/em> she tried to establish herself as a “serious ” actress, balancing work in comedies such as\u00a0Bridesmaids<\/strong>,\u00a0Zoolander 2\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Ghostbusters\u00a0<\/strong>with work in more dramatic fare such as\u00a0Girl Most Likely<\/strong>,\u00a0Nasty Baby\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0The Martian<\/strong>. I have not been impressed. And I could think off the top of my head at least 20 actresses who could do a better job here.<\/p>\n

More on this as it develops.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
