Bollywood star Soundarya Sharma (Ranchi Diaries) has refuted reports that she has been cast in Warner Bros. and DC Films’ Wonder Woman 1984, with the actress revealing to Times of India that she has auditioned for the film, but has not been offered a role as yet.
“I did go to New York a couple of months back and gave auditions for four films, one of which was Wonder Woman. After that I haven’t heard anything. When I read reports that I have apparently been finalized for a role in Wonder Woman, I was amazed, shocked and confused! I would be the happiest if I would get to work in my favourite film, but nothing has been finalized yet.”
The original casting report came from The Hindu, where Sharma was quoted as having said that: “This I can say is a ‘dream coming true’ situation. It’s exhilarating to be a part of such a larger than life character film where you get to play your dream role. I have always dreamt of playing such a character and idolised it.”
