Lynda Carter is celebrating Wonder Woman 3 Update Is A Big Relief For DCEU Fans
Now, Lynda Carter is taking to Twitter to celebrate Wonder Woman Day, which honors the superhero's first appearance in the comics all those years ago. She reflects on how long it has been since she donned her iconic costume but writes that "Diana has lived in my heart ever since." The actress also includes a throwback video of her as Wonder Woman, to the delight of fans.
Lynda Carter's Wonder Woman Legacy Explained
Carter's portrayal of Wonder Woman/Diana Prince has a legacy of its own, with Jenkins commemorating her work in 2017, at the time of Wonder Woman's theatrical release, when she considered the actress to be important to the character's success. Carter's iconic Wonder Woman twirl also influenced the comics, with the spinning transformation sequence being incorporated in future publications. In 1985, she was recognized as an honoree in DC Comics' 50th-anniversary print, "Fifty Who Made DC Great," and had statues, as well as busts, created and sold by DC Direct in 2007 and 2010.
Carter's close attachment to Wonder Woman and the fanbase that has grown with the hero since her introduction is why she remains so beloved to this day. She certainly had an impact on the character's popularity outside the comics and has embraced current depictions, making longtime fans excited about recent projects, like Jenkins' films. Here's hoping Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman gets a third entry so that audiences get the opportunity to see more of Carter's new role.
