Jessica Biel in Talks for Justice League!
-----------------------------------------
Jessica Biel is in talks to play Wonder Woman in Warner
Bros.' all-star superhero film Justice League of America,
reports Variety.
The potential deal marks the first piece of casting to
emerge from the DC Comics-based ensemble project, which
is expected to feature Superman, Batman, the Flash and
Aquaman in addition to Wonder Woman.
George Miller (Happy Feet) will direct the big screen
adaptation. Kieran and Michele Mulroney wrote the script.
Biel is filming the indie drama Powder Blue, which wraps
in October, opposite Forest Whitaker. She will then segue
to A Woman of No Importance, based on the play by Oscar
Wilde. That leaves room on the actress' schedule for
"Justice League," which Warner is fast-tracking as a
project before any potential strikes. However, the
film's likelihood hinges on the studio's ability to
assemble a cast of superheroes in a small window of time.
The trade says the studio declined comment, saying that
it prefers to announce an entire cast rather than
piecemeal deals.
