Lynda Carter shares a picture of herself wearing a Wonder Woman-inspired mask. Carter rose to fame for her portrayal of Wonder Woman on the TV show of the same name. The show was a crown jewel in Carter's elaborate filmography, and it has since given Carter the recognition of a distinguished DC Comics superhero. Carter's synonymity with Wonder Woman has earned her fan love and has provided her with a wide-reaching platform. And as it can be seen in the actress' latest tweet, she is effectively using the platform and the endearment to create public awareness.
Ever since the coronavirus pandemic took a turn for the worse back in March, many people have been trying to do all they can to slow the spread of COVID-19. In addition to self-quarantining at home and practicing social distancing, wearing face masks has emerged as one of the leading ways to stay safe. Recently, celebrities like The Boys cast and The Princess Bride star Cary Elwes have shared their own messages encouraging others to wear masks when they have to go out. Now, Carter's joined in with a rather fitting mask.
Carter took to Twitter to post a picture of herself in a Wonder Woman-inspired star-spangled royal blue mask. As Carter donned the reversible, stitched, bold face covering, she enjoined upon her fans to follow her example. She reminded people that the coronavirus pandemic is a lethal health disaster, and it is the moral responsibility of every individual to wear a mask in order to keep themselves and the community safe. Check out Carter's post below:
Masks have become a major talking point over the past few months, particularly as new coronavirus cases rise across the U.S. In the country, wearing a mask has turned into a political controversy, with the debate inspiring fan art of The Dark Knight Rises' Bane explaining how to properly wear a mask to Batman. Hopefully, this latest DC-inspired mask wearing social media post will encourage more people to cover their faces when they have to go out. Carter remains an iconic figure decades after she last played Wonder Woman, so it stands reason to believe Wonder Woman fans will listen to the star and do their part to stop coronavirus.
Carter has time and again proved that she isn't just a fictional superhero, but rather she is a real-life Wonder Woman. Last year, during the #MeToo movement, Carter audaciously spoke out against the sexual harassment on the Wonder Woman TV show set. During the 2018 Academy Awards, she openly campaigned for nominations for Jenkins' 2017 film and Gal Gadot. This pandemic-related activism is just adding more feathers to Carter's illustrious cap.
