Christina Hendricks, the Mad Men actress, said she would love to play Wonder Woman.

Hendricks, 35, recently learned that she might star in an upcoming project involving the attractive comic book superhero, according to KABC-TV's blog OnTheRedCarpet.com.

"I just heard that rumor too," Hendricks said on the Rachael Ray Show earlier this week.

"I don't know where it got started, but I love it. I've been wanting to wear that outfit my whole life. I had Wonder Woman underoos! I'd love to. That would be so fun. We're putting it out there."

On AMC's Emmy and Golden Globe-winning series Mad Men, Hendricks spends her days wearing 1960s dresses for her role as Joan Harris, an office manager in a New York City advertising firm.

Actress Lynda Carter starred as Wonder Woman in The New Adventures of Wonder Woman—adapted from the classic comic series—which aired in the United States from 1975 to 1979, according to OnTheRedCarpet.com.
