Who makes the better Amazon superheroine: Gal Gadot "Wonder Woman" or Lynda Carter "Wonder Woman?"
The re-emergence of the all-time favorite female action superhero has sent the entire online community abuzz with excitement. After all, Wonder Woman remains one of the most popular female superheroes of all time.
Indeed, there is nothing like watching a warrior chick possessed with drop-dead gorgeous looks fighting on the good side. However, given the differences in audiences' demand in the past and present, expect Gal Gadot "Wonder Woman" and Lynda Carter "Wonder Woman" to have differences. And here is where two questions arise: What specific differences and to what extent?
To give us a better view of how the past and present versions stack up against each other, here is a comprehensive comparison of their personal backgrounds and the weapons they use.
Gal Gadot "Wonder Woman" vs. Lynda Carter "Wonder Woman"
Actresses:
Both brunette, statuesque stunners hold beauty queen titles. According to IMDB, Lynda Carter is a singer and actress who hails from Arizona. She won the Miss World USA 1972. Gal Gadot, on the other hand, who is both model and actress (She debuted in "Fast and Furious 4.") was Miss Israel 2004.
Weapons:
According to IMDB, Lynda as Wonder Woman spins to change herself into her superheroine alter. Her magic belt gives her inhuman strength. She uses her bulletproof bracelets to ward off bullets (or any other metallic weapon, perhaps).Her tiara doubles as a boomerang that she can hurl at her enemies. She has a magic lasso that is not only unbreakable but has the capacity to force anyone to tell the truth.
JoBlo, per Batman-News, shared precious information leaked by an anonymous source. They said that Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman will be using a minimum of four weapons: a lasso, sword, shield and spear. Similar to Captain America, she hangs her shield on her back if she is not using it. Because these info are classified as rumors as of this writing, people can safely surmise that they may still see some changes in her weapons once production of "Batman vs.Superman: Dawn of Justice" wraps up.
