She also played the role of Fat Amy in the musical comedy Pitch Perfect film series (2012–2017), which earned her several award nominations and wins, including the MTV Movie Award for Best Breakthrough Performance and a Teen Choice Award for Choice Movie Actress.

Wonder Woman as an emissary and ambassador from Themyscira to Patriarch's World, charged with the mission of bringing peace to the outside world. Even though Diana is the chosen Amazon to represent the island to the outside world, not all of her sisters agree with that decision. In the William Messner-Loebs storyline The Contest, a rival tribe of Amazons are sent by the sorceress Circe to wage war on Themyscira, only to be defeated and assimilated into their society. When Diana returns to the island, their champion Artemis challenges her to usurp her role as emissary. It’s a fun tale that introduced an important supporting character with lots of moral complexity who wasn’t just a simple villain. Movies need more of that stuff.
