I agree with Linda Carter that it should be an unknown actress, not anyone

  Wonder Woman's always been portrayed as Caucasian, odd considering her
  people are influenced by the Greek gods. But hey, Kevin Sorbo wasn't
  exactly Greek either! Either way, I agree about Torres, but you know
  there's as much a chance of that as Tyrease playing Superman. So,
  looking at non-Black women, I think the girl who plays the Companion
  on Firefly has the looks, not sure if she has the attitude. But her
  Brazilian-Italian heritage definitely fits the look better.  
  How about the dark-haired beauty from Angel who had electrical powers?
  She was a thief that Angel and the gang encountered. She was tough...

  I don't know much about Wonder Woman other than she was a DC Comics
  heroine and the 70's TV series featured Linda Carter. Does Wonder
  Woman have to be caucasian? On the Fire Fly front, Why not Gina
  Torres? She'd make an awesome Wonder Woman. She exudes power,
  strength and confidence as Zoe. Plus she's about 110% totally hawt.
