Beyonce Knowles wants to be a superhero – as the first black Wonder Woman. Beyone has met executives at DC Comics and Warner Brothers, who own the rights to the iconic figure. ‘A black Wonder Woman would be a powerful thing,’ Beyonce said. ‘It’s time for that, right? It would be great.’
Apparently her interest was sparked when she saw the costume worn by Lynda Carter in the hit Seventies TV show on display at a museum. She said: ‘I was thinking to myself, “OK, I need to be a superhero.” Wonder Woman would be a very bold choice. There’s an action element that I would enjoy.’
