Jennifer Aniston on wanting to play Wonder Woman

Actor Jennifer Aniston says she wanted to play Wonder Woman at one point of time but ended up waiting for “too long”.

However, the actor who is known for portraying the role of Rachel in the much celebrated TV series F.R.I.E.N.D.S., did not mention if she ever actively pursued the role.

“I wanted to play Wonder Woman... but I waited too long,” Aniston said as reported by Variety. The actor, who picked up her first SAG award for the best female actor in drama for The Morning Show, is yet to appear in any superhero based films or TV shows.

Actor Gal Gadot who most recently played Wonder Woman in the 2017 titular film, will reprise her role in Wonder Woman 1984 which is scheduled to release this year. Other actors that have portrayed live-action versions of Wonder Woman include Cathy Lee Crosby in the 1974 film Wonder Woman and Lynda Carter in the massively popular TV series of the same name. While the F.R.I.E.N.D.S. star may not get a chance to play the superheroine, the actor says that she is looking forward to doing other projects.

“I have a lot to do. I honestly feel I’m just kind of kicking into a creative stride that I have just discovered,” she said.

Aniston, mainly known for her comedic work, said she felt “overwhelmed” by winning her award for her role in The Morning Show and that she wants to star in more comedies in the future.

Apart from winning an award, the actor also made headlines during the SAG Awards after reuniting with ex-husband Brad Pitt, who also won an award for his role in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019).

I have a lot to do. I honestly feel I’m just kind of kicking into a creative stride that I have just discovered.
