Thing is, a website called wonder-who.com recently released a series of mocked-up photos of Megan Fox clad in a Wonder Woman costume in an attempt, "to force studio executives to cast Fox over already cast model/actress Megan Gale," according to Daily Stab. But as it turns out, the website is a hoax. The Daily Stab notes, “Fox, rated as one of the sexiest women in the world, was mocked up in the movie-style trailer which teased fans this week with political-type slogans, including, 'It’s time for a new ‘W’' and an Obama-esque 'A real change is coming.'" There was a video of the supposed movie-style trailer of Fox playing Wonder Woman, but the video has been disabled by [YouTube](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/far-out-toys). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.1/10 - Popularity: 75% | Activity: 69% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Celebs](https://www.trendhunter.com/celebs) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Fake Heroines:** Create fake images of popular heroines to promote alternate actresses. - **Online Hoaxes:** Design fake websites to advocate for fictional characters. - **Celebrity Advertising:** Use fake images of celebrities to promote a certain product. ### Where This Applies - **Film:** Create hype for an unreleased movie by releasing fake information online. - **Entertainment Promotion:** Launch online marketing campaigns to promote a product or film. - **Digital Marketing:** Use social media influencers and celebrities to market products or services. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Horror Doll Makeup Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/urban-decay-x-m3gan.md) - [Toy Brick Reimagined Trailers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wicked-movie.md) - [Blockbuster Shopping Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/black-friday-ad.md) - [Empowering Fitness Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mother-fitness.md) - [Film-Inspired Rum Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/captain-morgan-x-m3gan-20.md) - [Collaboration Superhero Comics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bazooka-bubble-gum-and-dc-comics.md) - [Faux Reality Drama Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/primer-donnas.md) - [Body Paint Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miley-cyrus-maison-margiela.md) - [Dynamic CGI Mascara Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/maybelline-new-york.md)
