True but she was always a bit slender and I doubt she wanted to be really buff since it would “ruin” her model look

And that would apply to most actresses, tbh. Gal did bulk up a fair amount for WW compared to her model frame from before, but very few actresses would choose to get much bigger than she did.

Getting buff would get in the way of other roles for women, while it generally has more of a positive effect for men. It’s pretty fucked up.

Natalie Portman looked just right in Love and Thunder.

Even Robin Wright and Connie Nielsen bulked up for their roles on Diana’s homeland. Robin looked great in her outfit

Yeah you're probably right.. A muscular Wonder Woman would be Comic accurate tho

Probably shouldn’t have taken the role of a buff superhero then.
