While talking with EW, Lilly mirrored on a Wonder Woman audition she did with director Joss Whedon.
“I think my impression, coming away from it, was I had no desire and he could tell,” Lilly defined. “It didn’t appeal and there was nothing about the meeting that like, jazzed me or made me think like, ‘Oh, I’ve gotta do this.’ Nothing clicked. Nothing felt good. I am way too authentic for my own good. I mean, it’s not good. If I am not impressed, you’ll know. And maybe you shouldn’t know sometimes.”
The actress additionally famous that Whedon might have taken some offense, however that she wasn’t bothered.
“I was okay with that. I was okay with burning bridges. I was okay with not having everyone in Hollywood wanna work with me,” Lilly said. “I just always had to do what felt right for me. And honestly I wasn’t into superhero movies and that’s the main reason why, in both of these instances, I just kind of felt like I don’t know what I get out of this.”
Wonder Woman would ultimately be performed by Gal Gadot in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, two solo Wonder Woman movies, Justice League, and Zack Snyder’s Justice League. Whether Gadot will reprise the function in additional motion pictures or cameos is presently unknown. Wonder Woman was initially set to cameo in The Flash, although there are reviews that mentioned cameo has been lower.
