Anna Friel has added her name to the list of actresses competing to portray Wonder Woman on the big screen.

A host of A-list ladies have been tipped to take over from 1970s TV's Wonder Woman Lynda Carter in Joss Whedon's big screen remake, including Megan Fox, Eliza Dushku and even Beyonce Knowles.

And Brit Friel wants to make sure she's considered too.

The Land of the Lost star tells People magazine she's been a fan since she was a child: "Everyone wanted to be Wonder Woman. I had Wonder Woman pyjamas."

But Dushku remains the favourite for the role, after Carter endorsed her in an interview with WENN.com, stating, "Eliza would make a great Wonder Woman."

geez, I love Anna Friel - she was great in Pushing Daisies and an all-around sweetheart but she is no Wonder Woman.

they may as well hire Danny Devito to be the next Superman, or Chris Rock could play Hitler; its almost as bad of a casting idea as Tom Cruise as Lestat or Daniel Craig as James Bond.

^ I agree Rob. She's great, but not right for the role.

I will say that I would not complain at all if I got to see her dress up in the WW uniform - I just don't think she'd be right for the movie.
